Macmillan Publishers is a leading international publishing house with a 180 year history, home to some of the world’s most cherished authors and creators.
Macmillan Learning is our Higher Education division, publishing market-leading academic textbooks and digital learning resources across the Sciences, Social Sciences and Humanities. Our mission is to inspire what’s possible for every learner, and we are dedicated to combining world-class content with evolving learning technology to drive student success.
Our International Sales and Marketing team is 5 years into an ambitious journey to grow our global market share and we're hiring a Product Marketing Manager to join us.
The Product Marketing Manager is a genuinely international role. You'll work closely with our sales team to market your portfolio of HE subject lists across the UK, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia-Pacific and Latin America, shaping campaigns and messaging for each region’s academic buying cycle while partnering with colleagues in our US product and programme teams. Few marketing roles offer this breadth of geographic exposure at this level - it's a role that will stretch and grow your marketing skillset far beyond a single-market remit.
Based in our London (Kings Cross) office and reporting to the Associate Director of Product Marketing (International), you'll sit at the intersection of product, sales and campaign delivery. You'll be the subject matter expert for your portfolio: defining who each product is for and why it matters to them, and leading launches of new editions and digital releases.
At the heart of the role is delivering high-intent leads to our sales teams, who turn them into new adoptions and long-term customers. For every campaign, you’ll set the audience, proposition and goals, and brief our Lifecycle Marketing team, who design, build and run the journeys and digital campaigns. You’ll review lead quality and performance with them and with sales, and keep refining the approach.
You’ll also be a trusted partner to sales, delivering product training, running high-impact demonstrations (in person and online), and using CRM analytics to sharpen outreach. There'll be opportunities to travel, both within the UK and internationally, for conferences, sales meetings and select on-campus visits, giving you direct, first-hand insight into the markets you're marketing to.
Do you enjoy combining strategy with hands-on delivery and are you curious about how courses and buying decisions differ from one market to the next? You’ll join a small, collaborative product marketing team within our International Sales and Marketing team: your line manager and one other Product Marketing Manager, each with their own lists. We welcome applications from ambitious marketing executives ready for their next step, as well as experienced marketing managers seeking to transition into digital courseware and take on a more commercially focused role. Full training and support will be provided, along with ongoing professional development.
