The role

We’re now hiring a Director of Digital Marketing to lead and evolve our global digital growth engine.

This is a senior, high-impact leadership role, responsible for defining and delivering our performance marketing strategy across paid media, organic/SEO, experimentation, and analytics. You’ll lead a talented team of ~15 marketers and agency partners, manage a multi-million euro global budget, and work closely with senior leadership to drive measurable growth at scale.

This role is ideal for someone who is both strategic and hands-on, a digital leader who can shape the vision, develop people, and go deep when needed to diagnose, optimise, and drive performance.

What you will do

    • Own the global digital growth strategy, spanning performance marketing, experimentation, and analytics
    • Lead, coach, and scale a high-performing digital marketing team of ~15 specialists and agency partners
    • Drive full-funnel acquisition through paid media, SEO, programmatic, CRO, and integrated campaign delivery
    • Oversee multi-million euro budgets with rigorous scenario planning, forecasting, and yield optimisation
    • Manage campaign planning and execution end-to-end - from concept and targeting to creative and channel mix
    • Build and scale an experimentation roadmap - driving structured testing to accelerate growth and learning
    • Use GenAI tools to improve production efficiency, automate workflows, and speed up go-to-market delivery
    • Partner with Design, Content, Product Marketing, and Regional Field teams to ensure campaign excellence
    • Optimise the marketing tech stack across tagging, attribution, activation, analytics, and CRO tooling
    • Work closely with Sales, BI, and RevOps to improve tracking, funnel conversion, and marketing-sourced pipeline
    • Monitor competitive activity and market shifts to inform digital strategy and identify new growth levers

What you bring

    • 7+ years of experience in global B2B performance marketing, ideally in SaaS or adjacent software industries
    • 4+ years leading and developing teams, with a track record of growing both people and results
    • Proven experience owning and optimising digital marketing budgets at scale, with a bias for impact
    • Deep channel expertise across paid search, paid social, SEO, CRO, and multi-channel digital campaigns
    • Demonstrated success running structured experiments and growth programs - not just always-on acquisition
    • Confidence using GenAI to accelerate output, automate tasks, and improve digital delivery
    • Analytical strength - comfortable building and interpreting dashboards, forecasts, and performance models
    • Experience managing agency relationships and cross-functional collaboration across global teams
    • Hands-on, pragmatic mindset - equally comfortable setting strategy and digging into channel-level performance
