Head of Marketing in Warwickshire

We are working exclusively with a specialist marketing agency that occupies a genuine leadership position in its niche to recruit a Head of Marketing into its growing team.

This is a rare chance to step into a pivotal leadership role at a high-performing, tight-knit agency renowned for delivering measurable commercial results for its clients. Reporting directly to the Managing Director, you will own the marketing function end-to-end — leading a team of specialists spanning SEO, Paid Media, Content Marketing and Marketing Automation, and playing a defining role in shaping the agency's future direction.

The business is growing with clear ambition. As Head of Marketing, you will be the person who raises performance standards, develops talented specialists, and ensures clients receive consistently excellent, data-driven marketing management.

Responsibilities:

• Provide senior marketing leadership across the agency, setting strategy, standards and direction for the whole team
• Lead, inspire and develop a specialist marketing team - conducting regular one-to-ones, performance reviews and setting clear KPIs
• Act as the senior point of escalation for client marketing queries, working closely with account management colleagues to drive retention and growth
• Oversee marketing delivery quality using GA4 and other reporting tools to generate actionable insights and support data-driven decisions
• Identify and implement opportunities to leverage AI, automation and emerging technologies to drive efficiency and scalability
• Collaborate with the Marketing Operations Manager on workflow, resourcing and operational effectiveness
• Help shape the agency's evolving service offering, spotting opportunities for innovation and improvement

You are an experienced marketer who combines genuine commercial instinct with a talent for developing people. You understand the full marketing mix - SEO, Paid Media, Content, Automation - and are equally comfortable discussing brand strategy with clients and digging into performance data with your team.

You will bring:

• Proven experience in a senior marketing or marketing leadership role, ideally within an agency setting
• Strong working knowledge across SEO, Paid Media, Content Marketing and Marketing Automation
• Hands-on experience with GA4 and performance reporting frameworks
• A track record of managing, mentoring and elevating marketing professionals
• Experience applying AI and automation tools to improve marketing output and operational efficiency
• Excellent client-facing communication skills - able to translate strategy into clear, compelling conversations
• Close attention to detail, strong organisational skills and the ability to prioritise effectively in a fast-paced environment

Personally, you are:

• A natural, trust-building leader who gets the best from people through clarity and encouragement
• Commercially minded and genuinely passionate about driving client growth
• Proactive and solutions-focused - someone who moves fast without compromising on quality
• Collaborative, personable and at ease in a close-knit, committed team environment

What Is On Offer

• A senior leadership role with genuine autonomy and real influence over the agency's direction
• Hybrid working - 3 days in a South Warwickshire office, 2 days remote
• A supportive, people-first culture with significant growth ambitions
• 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
• Competitive salary commensurate with experience
