The opportunity:

Access LG-TEC is transforming how local authorities deliver social care, support independent living, and intervene earlier — powered by an innovative AI platform that’s changing what’s possible for councils across the UK. We’re looking for a Director of Marketing to own the full marketing function — from product positioning and GTM strategy through to demand generation, campaigns, and events. You’ll build a high-performing, commercially focused marketing engine that accelerates pipeline, sharpens our product storytelling, and elevates our presence with senior decision-makers across UK local government and healthcare. This is a hands-on, strategic role for someone who loves bringing teams together, simplifying complexity, and delivering campaigns that move the needle. AI isn’t just a tool you’ll use — it’s central to the product you’ll market and the way your team will work.

What you’ll lead:

• Full function ownership
• Lead the entire marketing function for LG-TEC: product marketing, proposition development, GTM strategy, campaigns, content, digital, events, and communications.
• Build and lead a high-performing team of 6, closing skills gaps and creating shared focus on revenue outcomes.
• Set the direction for how we position, package, and promote our solutions — making sure every part of the marketing engine works together to deliver pipeline and revenue.

Product marketing and GTM

• Own GTM for new products, modules, and our AI platform — shaping value propositions that resonate with multi-stakeholder buyers in local government.
• Define compelling positioning for complex solutions spanning social care, commissioning, children’s services, and technology enabled care.
• Build sales enablement assets, extract insights from market research, and equip sales teams to win.

Pipeline and revenue

• Own pipeline KPIs aligned to orders targets across all sales motions: new business, expansion, and renewal.
• Partner with sales to understand competitive losses and develop strategies to improve win rates.
• Deliver the volume, quality, and timing of opportunities needed to meet revenue targets through effective demand generation.

AI and innovation

• Lead the marketing narrative for our AI platform — making it exciting, credible, and compelling for local authority decision-makers.
• Embed AI into how your team works: increasing speed, quality, and scale while challenging outdated practices.
• Position Access LG-TEC as the innovative partner driving AI-powered transformation across UK local government.

Market leadership and customer growth

• Position Access LG-TEC as the go-to provider for councils, local authorities, and care organisations.
• Raise market visibility through PR, thought leadership, conference speaking, and sector engagement.
• Develop strategies to grow revenue within the existing customer base through product adoption, cross-sell, and service expansion.
• Continuously refine the Ideal Customer Profile to ensure all marketing targets the right organisations.

Digital and data

• Oversee integrated campaigns using SEO, SEM, social media, email, content marketing, and webinars — tailored to the longer procurement cycles and multi-stakeholder decisions typical of local government.
• Put analytics frameworks in place to measure campaign effectiveness, customer engagement, and revenue attribution. Use insights to improve ROI continuously.

What success looks like:

• 3 months
• A cohesive, motivated team with clear goals and accountability.
• Strong alignment with sales on pipeline targets and win rate priorities.
• First product marketing outputs delivered: refreshed positioning, initial enablement assets.
• AI platform narrative defined and in market.
