​We’re partnering with a globally recognised technology consultancy delivering some of the most innovative and complex projects in the market.

This is a business where ideas don’t just stay on paper, they become real-world solutions. From advanced product development to solving high-stakes technical challenges, their work sits at the intersection of technology, science and commercial innovation.

They’re now looking for a Head of Demand Generation to shape how they generate and convert demand across global markets, building campaigns that directly influence pipeline, revenue and long-term growth.

The Role

This is a senior, high-impact position where you’ll take ownership of demand generation strategy across the business, with a clear focus on driving pipeline, revenue and long-term market positioning.

You’ll be responsible for:

  • Defining audience, segmentation and targeting strategies to drive pipeline growth across key sectors and regions

  • Leading the development and execution of integrated demand generation campaigns, from insight and concept through to delivery and optimisation

  • Partnering closely with senior stakeholders to translate commercial priorities into marketing activity with a clear line to sales outcomes

  • Building a clear view of performance across the funnel, using CRM, automation and analytics tools to drive continuous improvement

  • Managing budgets effectively, ensuring investment is aligned to ROI and measurable commercial impact

Alongside this, you’ll play a key role in shaping the future of the marketing function, influencing direction, improving capability, and helping create a high-performing, collaborative team environment.

What we’re looking for

  • Proven experience leading demand generation within a B2B environment, ideally in complex or consultative sales settings

  • Experience leading product or service launches, playing a key role in shaping and delivering campaign strategy

  • A track record of delivering campaigns that create measurable business impact

  • Strong experience partnering with sales teams or senior stakeholders to align marketing with commercial objectives

  • Experience working across global or multi-region markets, with the ability to manage complexity and prioritise effectively

  • A data-led mindset, with hands-on experience using CRM and marketing automation platforms (e.g. Salesforce, HubSpot)

  • A confident and credible leader, able to bring clarity, structure and momentum in evolving or ambiguous environments

  • A recognised marketing qualification (e.g. CIM) or a degree in Marketing or a related field

Why apply?

This is a rare opportunity to step into a genuinely high-impact role within a global business where marketing is seen as a driver of growth, not just a support function.

You’ll be working at the forefront of innovation, surrounded by people solving complex, meaningful challenges every day, with the backing of a business that truly invests in its team.

Alongside the opportunity itself, you’ll benefit from a strong and well-rounded package, including:

  • Industry-leading remuneration package

  • Discretionary bonus, directly linking your contribution to business success

  • 25 days holiday plus bank holidays

  • Private healthcare, life insurance and travel insurance

  • Daily free breakfast and lunch on-site

It’s the kind of environment where you’re trusted to make an impact, supported to grow, and part of something genuinely exciting, where your work has a clear and visible impact on pipeline and commercial growth.
