Job Summary

Own and optimize the marketing analytics, AI tooling, and end-to-end experimentation program to turn signals into actionable campaign improvements, coordinating with campaign owners and tracking impact.

  • Lead the analytics stack and ensure proper use and data integrity
  • Drive real-time budget pivots and documented learnings across teams

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Own the optimization cadence: run a recurring review with each campaign owner (Demand Generation, Product Marketing, Content, ABM, Social) that turns AI surfaced performance signals into specific, agreed actions, and track whether those actions actually happen.
  • Curate and validate AI generated insight: use AI dashboarding and analytics tools to do the heavy lifting of trend detection, but apply judgement to catch false signals, add context AI misses, and turn raw output into a concrete recommendation.
  • Hold teams accountable for follow through: maintain a visible signal to action log and report to the Head of Marketing Growth on what was flagged, what was actioned, and what impact it had.
  • Make real time reallocation calls within an agreed test and learn budget, pivoting underperforming spend or creative while campaigns are still live, rather than only recommending changes after a campaign has ended.
  • Design and run the experimentation program end to end, from hypothesis and test design through result interpretation, and codify what is learned into playbooks that get reused across teams.
  • Partner with the Head of Marketing Growth to evolve how we measure impact across the buyer journey, connecting activity to pipeline and revenue outcomes.
  • Own and manage the marketing analytics and AI tooling stack in full: select, configure, and continuously improve the dashboards, attribution, and predictive tools that do the data crunching, and take direct, ongoing responsibility for making sure they are used properly and that the information they surface is accurate.
  • Build and maintain lightweight playbooks and standard operating procedures so that proven optimizations become standard practice rather than being relearned every campaign cycle.

Requirements

  • Four to six, or more, years in marketing analytics, marketing operations, or growth roles within a B2B environment, with a track record of driving, not just reporting, change in campaign performance.
  • Specific examples of insight that led to a budget reallocation, creative pivot, or process change that was actually adopted by a team, not just presented to one.
  • Comfort managing, configuring, and critically evaluating AI driven analytics and dashboarding tools, able to validate AI generated insight, spot when it is wrong, and know when human judgement should override it.
  • Strong influence across teams, and ideally some prior experience holding budget or decision authority over a test and learn program.
  • Working knowledge of campaign tracking and reporting tools (for example Google Analytics, Salesforce, marketing automation platforms) as a configurer and administrator of these systems, augmented by AI, not as a manual dashboard builder.
  • Confidence working with KPIs such as engagement, conversion rate, pipeline influence, and marketing ROI, and making a call and being accountable for the result.
  • Strong stakeholder management and organizational savvy, able to get campaign owners to actually change behavior, not just nod along in the meeting.

Preferred

  • Bonus: experience designing, rolling out, or governing AI driven marketing analytics tools or workflows within a marketing team.

Benefits

  • 25 days holiday (exc. bank holidays) + 3 BigHand days off between Christmas & New Year
  • Various wellbeing benefits including private medical, vision, online wellbeing programs & webinars, access to online therapy and Employee Resource Groups (ERG)
  • Company-wide Wellness day, for our teams all across the globe to switch off and spend the day doing something to nourish their mental health
  • Opportunities to give back with company volunteer events and individual volunteer days
  • Career growth opportunities and study leave allowance
  • Family benefits including enhanced parental leave, secondary caregiver leave and fertility support
  • Financial benefits including pension scheme, life assurance, and salary sacrificing
  • Cycle to Work Scheme and Tech Scheme
  • Growing business with a global presence, flexible working, modern offices, and remote work options
