Company: Confidential International B2B Technology Business
Reporting to: Chief Executive Officer
The Opportunity
A fast-growing international technology business operating across the unattended retail, vending and payments ecosystem is seeking a commercially driven Chief Marketing Officer to lead its global marketing strategy.
This is a senior leadership position for an energetic, confident and highly practical marketing leader.

The Role
The Chief Marketing Officer will take ownership of the company’s marketing strategy, positioning, communications and brand development. Working closely with the CEO and wider leadership team, they will help strengthen the company’s market presence, improve engagement with B2B customers and support international commercial growth.
This is not a purely corporate or delegation-focused role. The CMO will be expected to roll up their sleeves, contribute directly to projects and bring pace, visibility and personal energy to the function.

- Represent the business confidently in front of clients, partners, industry stakeholders and internal teams.
- Manage multiple marketing initiatives and cross-functional projects from concept through to delivery.
- Work closely with sales teams to develop effective customer materials, presentations, campaigns and lead-generation programmes.
- Ensure consistent and high-quality messaging across digital channels, events, client communications and corporate materials.
- Introduce and embed AI-enabled tools across marketing processes, content creation, research, campaign management and performance analysis.
- Use data and commercial insight to evaluate marketing activity and improve return on investment.
- Bring new ideas, challenge established ways of working and create a culture of experimentation and continuous improvement.
