• Optimise media investment. Own the regional paid-media framework, including audience strategy, channel mix, campaign phasing, agency governance and creative optimisation. Maintain clear visibility of regional plans and performance.
• Connect investment to outcomes. Manage budget effectiveness and help teams link media spend to campaign goals, key performance indicators, pipeline contribution and commercial impact.
• Improve the digital customer journey. Set the regional framework across awareness, consideration, conversion and nurture. Advise on channel roles, content sequencing, landing-page experience, calls to action and measurement requirements.
• Advance marketing technology and automation.

Clarify priorities and decision rights, coach colleagues, create playbooks and represent Europe in global digital, data, customer relationship management and technology initiatives.
• Strengthen governance and manage risk. Own regional governance across customer data, consent, brand, agency quality, measurement and responsible AI. Identify delivery, data, commercial and customer-experience risks early and coordinate corrective action.

What we are looking for

• You are an experienced digital marketing and media professional who can combine strategic thinking, commercial judgement and collaborative leadership in a complex, matrixed business. You are comfortable moving between executive recommendations, agency conversations, campaign detail and performance data.
• Significant experience leading digital marketing and paid-media strategy within, or for, a complex business-to-business organisation. Relevant media-agency experience is also welcomed.
• Strong understanding of marketing funnels, pipeline contribution, attribution and the connection between media investment and commercial performance.
• Practical expertise across paid media, customer relationship management, marketing automation, lead management, audience strategy and digital analytics.
• Experience managing media agencies, campaign investment and senior stakeholders, with the ability to translate data into clear recommendations and decisions.
• Experience designing customer journeys, nurture approaches and conversion frameworks, together with working knowledge of Salesforce, Marketing Cloud, analytics and business-intelligence environments.
• A collaborative leadership style and the ability to influence regional, global and cross-functional teams, define operating models, prioritise resources and build organisational capability.
• A strong governance mindset covering customer data, consent, brand, responsible AI and agency management.
• Fluency in English. Additional European language skills are beneficial, and the role requires flexibility to travel across Europe.
