Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Full-funnel Demand Gen: Own strategy from awareness through expansion with a pipeline target tied to revenue.
  • ABM & Expansion: Lead Tier 1/2 account ABM, intent-driven cross-sell, and Sales/CS aligned expansion pipeline.
  • Inbound & Content: Design conversion architecture, landing pages, CTAs, demo flow, and problem-focused nurture tracks.

Requirements

  • Proven B2B demand generation experience in a high-growth SaaS or data/analytics business with a complex, high-ACV product
  • A track record of rebuilding demand generation culture and measurement — not just managing it
  • Full-funnel fluency: paid, content, ABM, nurture, marketing ops, and the frameworks that tie them to revenue
  • Experience owning pipeline across both net new and expansion motions
  • Experience working alongside an enterprise sales motion — multi-stakeholder buying cycles, long deal timelines, and the demand generation strategies that support them: account-level engagement, executive-level content, and the ability to measure influence as well as attribution
  • A track record of optimising inbound conversion — not just driving traffic or generating leads, but improving the quality and velocity of the path from first intent signal to sales-qualified conversation
  • Fluency in marketing automation — Marketo is the current platform — and a clear strategic and operational understanding of how inbound and outbound motions work together: how demand generation creates the signal that outbound acts on, and how to design the handoff so neither motion wastes the other’s work. The stack is actively evolving; underlying capability matters more than tool familiarity
  • Familiarity with AI search optimisation (GEO/AIO) and how B2B content strategy is shifting in response to LLM-driven discovery
  • An AI-first mindset with specific, hands-on experience building automated and AI-powered marketing workflows
  • A genuine interest in building AI-powered marketing workflows — not as an observer, but as an active collaborator. We are investing in an AI-powered marketing operating system covering content repurposing, paid copy generation, outreach personalisation, and automated content-to-video pipelines. This person will help shape and pressure-test that build alongside our digital growth team
  • A forward-looking view on how marketing teams are evolving: comfortable leading through influence and specialist resource rather than headcount, and genuinely excited by the idea that a well-orchestrated small team with the right tools and partners can outperform a traditional large one
  • A principled view on marketing technology — platform-agnostic, focused on what a modern stack needs to do and how to evaluate it as the landscape evolves
  • Commercial credibility: comfortable owning a number and presenting alongside quota carriers in a revenue review

Preferred

  • Acting as company owners (all Vortexa staff have equity options)– in a business-savvy and responsible way
