Senior Marketing Manager (12 Month Contract / maternity cover / interim)
Tempo, United Kingdom
Job Description
About Tempo
Hi we’re Tempo, we’re a team of 50 on a mission to enable everyone to fulfil their potential through work, and to be the place where amazing careers and companies are built.
Since launching in 2017 we've become the go-to business and commercial hiring platform for fast growing companies, and our clients include a whopping 15 unicorns! We've also raised 8m from some great investors including Adecco Group and Hambro Perks. We’re doubling our team by 2023 and now have international expansion in our sights.
When Ben and Ollie started Tempo they were amazed that such an important process, that affects everyone, worked so badly.
If you’re a company, hiring is the most important thing you do. Your people are your business and who you hire can be the difference between failure and success. As individuals we spend 70% of our time at work, so it’s a big deal where we choose to go. Despite this there is huge unhappiness with the solutions we rely on to help. They are slow, expensive and at their worst, totally demoralising.
It's why we're here - to build a platform that delivers the hiring experience people deserve. Fast, transparent and human.
We're also now exploring products to help candidates navigate their career longer term so they can be hired based on their potential, not just their past experience.
We live our mission when we hire, looking to make the experience human and enjoyable whatever the outcome. We offer an exciting environment to build a career, with employees achieving promotions on average 9.5 months after probation. Read more on Glassdoor.
The Role
We're looking for a Senior Marketing Manager to join us for a maternity cover contract of 12 months to manage and support the team with the development and execution of the marketing plan in H2 while working with the CEO to create the H1 plan for 2023. This could lead to a longer term opportunity, if desired and depending on performance.
This is an exciting opportunity for a strong generalist marketer with people management experience to build on our success so far in 2022 and take our game-changing HR Tech solution into 2023.
Responsibilities
The role itself is unique for a marketing role as it requires both B2C and B2B strategies, meaning potential for a wider range of exciting initiatives. One arm of the strategy is to ensure we are the most attractive job seeking platform for ambitious early-career people to find their next role in an exciting start-up. The other side is to attract high growth, exciting startups/scale ups with junior business and commercial roles to join and hire their next superstars via our platform.
The team is split into two focus areas, B2C (acquiring and engaging candidates) and B2B (acquiring and engaging clients). We have marketing specialists covering each focus area which are underpinned by our performance marketing function.
The role is a combination of planning, execution and people management with a strong focus on execution and demonstrating value contributions from the marketing team.
Role in a nutshell:
- Manage, support and develop the marketing team
- To oversee the execution of demand generation plans to drive growth in client acquisition and working with the Commercial Director and BD teams to understand impact/results and iterate appropriately.
- To oversee the execution of B2C plans to not only drive candidate sign ups but to increase the quality of candidates onboarded on to the platform.
- Partner closely with our Performance Marketing arm to monitor and track the functions progress towards quarterly revenue and quality KPIs.
- Reviewing, feeding back and iterating on various initiatives to ensure the strongest impact possible. For example, developing content ideas, proofing and editing copy, briefing and iterating on design ideas ect.
- Take ownership of developing and executing certain initiatives from planning through to execution, for example, owning the relationship and outputs for specific product marketing pieces or running initiatives with Customer Success.
Requirements
You’ll have experience in a senior marketing role and ideally have covered both B2B and B2C at some point in your career.
We expect the hired candidate will probably have around 4-6 years marketing experience and have line manager/people experience and are eager for the next challenge.
To be successful in the role, we are looking for the following experience:
- 4-6 years’ experience in marketing, you may have specialised at some point, but being able to wear many hats and understand the full marketing remit is key.
- Being agile will be key to success as there are many spinning plates and
