• Leverage AI, marketing automation, personalisation engines and advanced analytics to move from “broadcast” campaigns to 1-to-1 highly relevant and timely communications across client and prospect journeys.
• Build the data-foundation for marketing: define and implement a marketing data model (customer/prospect segmentation, lifecycle stages, prediction scores), ensure clean data and integrate data sources across the group.
• Oversee digital channels (web, social, search, content, events) and ensure they work coherently and optimally, with strong metrics and ROI tracking.
• Align marketing closely with commercial goals.
• Champion the brand internally and externally.

• Strong strategic thinking with hands-on execution capability: you can set the long-term vision and also roll-up your sleeves to deliver.
• Excellent leadership and team-building skills: you can inspire, recruit and develop marketing talent; build high-performing teams.
• Exceptional understanding of digital-first marketing and modern tools/technologies (CRM, marketing automation platforms, analytics, personalisation engines).
• Data-literacy: comfortable with metrics, dashboards, segmentation, lifetime value modelling and marketing ROI.
• Outstanding communication and stakeholder management skills: you’ll work across the business (commercial, product, operations, technology) and need to influence and collaborate widely.
  

Your approach to work

• A growth mindset, curiosity and appetite for change: you’ll join us as a key driver of transformation and will need to embrace innovation, experimentation and continuous improvement.
• Integrity, professionalism and a desire to make a positive difference.

Role location

This is a hybrid role where you'll need to be in the office 3 times a week.  

Our preferred base for this role is Huddersfield at Fintel Services HQ but we're happy to consider our Manchester office (Wythenshawe) as long you're comfortable being in Huddersfield once a week.
