Marketing Director

North HollandHybridHours negotiable<3months

This is a strategic and hands-on role within a European data and AI consultancy. You will join the management team and lead a marketing function to create demand, sharpen the offer, and go to market. You will have the opportunity to build a demand engine that contributes to revenue and influence the organization's commercial priorities.

What you do

  • Design, build, run, measure, and improve campaigns and programs that create high-quality demand for the Business Development team.
  • Build a repeatable, multi-channel demand-generation engine across target accounts, target audiences, content, paid activity, partnerships, events, website conversion, and Marketing automation.
  • Create a practical Marketing-to-BD operating model with clear lead-quality standards, shared hand-offs, campaign follow-up, and conversion reporting.
  • Lead a clear, useful, and commercially relevant articulation of the offers in priority markets.
  • Make the combination of decision science, design, data, and AI legible to senior B2B buyers.
  • Partner with the CEO, BD leadership, Practice Leads, and subject-matter experts to test propositions, refine offers, and build market narratives.
  • Lead the Marketing contribution to the redesign of the website so that it better represents quality and supports conversion.
  • Build a thought-leadership and content program that supports both reputation and commercial goals.
  • Work with consultants, PhDs, designers, and AI engineers to find ideas worth telling and turn them into content that senior buyers want to read and discuss.
  • Bring fragmented or outsourced demand-generation activity into a more coherent in-house model.
  • Build the systems, templates, workflows, reporting, and automation that allow for quick launch of high-quality campaigns and continuous improvement.
  • Utilize Marketing automation, attribution, reporting, and conversion tracking.
  • Use generative and agentic AI as part of daily craft—from content ideation and drafting to audience work, campaign variants, personalization, reporting and optimization.
  • Sit on the management team, bringing a strong market and commercial point of view to strategic questions.
  • Help design, not just execute, how the organization goes to market as it scales.
  • Build shared Marketing standards across different regions and business units.

What they ask

  • Substantial B2B Marketing, Growth, Demand Generation, or Revenue Marketing experience in consulting, professional services, technology, data and AI, enterprise SaaS, or a comparable knowledge-led business.
  • A proven track record of building programs that produced qualified leads, opportunities, pipeline, and revenue.
  • Strategic and hands-on: able to sharpen a proposition, influence senior stakeholders, and decide where to invest, but also comfortable reviewing campaign performance, writing a brief, and building a campaign.
  • Understanding of complex B2B buying processes, including long sales cycles, senior stakeholders, and buying committees.
  • Build systems, not just slide decks, with knowledge of a working demand-generation rhythm.
  • Think like an editor: find ideas worth telling and turn them into something senior buyers genuinely want to engage with.
  • AI-native or AI-fluent in practice, using generative and agentic AI tools.
  • Manage people well: coach, set a high bar, and create the conditions for colleagues to do their best work.
  • Fluent in English.

Practical

  • Real ownership in building this function.
  • Commercial impact through direct collaboration with the CEO, management team, and business leaders.
  • A meaningful mandate to build a better demand-generation system, sharpen offers, strengthen the brand, and redesign the website.
  • Eligibility for a co-ownership scheme in line with other Group leadership roles.
  • A collective culture with daily lunches, Friday drinks, and an annual Collective Week.
