Commercial collaboration

  • Partner closely with inside sales to align campaigns with targeting, sequencing and handoffs, ensuring our conversion journeys are leveraging a combined campaign approach
  • Collaborate with product and content teams to ensure campaigns clearly communicate product value and reflect deep audience understanding

Performance & ways of working

  • Own campaign reporting and insights, connecting activity to commercial outcomes
  • Establish clear, repeatable ways of working for campaign planning, delivery and optimisation
  • Act as a senior campaign specialist within the marketing team, supporting best practice and consistency

Requirements

The ideal person
