Job description

The role

Marketing at Stitch runs on AI. Cold calling is done by a fleet of ElevenLabs agents, lead response and reporting run through Claude and Zapier, and content is produced at a pace a team ten times our size would struggle to match by hand. Your job is to own that machine and make it faster, cheaper and better, and to use it to build a content engine that never runs dry.

This is a hybrid role by design. Half of it is building and running the AI workflows behind every marketing motion: calling, outbound, social, reporting, lead handling. The other half is content: figuring out how Stitch produces a steady flow of blogs, partner content, posts for our team, and sales collateral that people actually want to read, and then building the system that produces it. The two halves overlap so much that we decided they should be one person.

You will also be the person the rest of the marketing team comes to when they are stuck. If something can be automated, templated or handed to an AI agent, you make that happen.

What you will do

• Own the marketing AI stack. Set up, run and scale every AI workflow across marketing: Claude Cowork agents and skills, the ElevenLabs Conversational AI calling fleet, lemlist and Twilio for outbound, Zapier for orchestration, social publishing and monitoring, and automated data reporting out of HubSpot and the ad platforms. You decide what runs where, how it connects, and when to replace a tool.

• Build the content engine. Design and run a repeatable production system for content across four streams: blog and thought leadership, co-branded partner content, ready-to-post content for founders and the sales team on LinkedIn, and sales collateral (one-pagers, decks, case studies, battlecards). Set the editorial calendar, build the briefs, run the AI-assisted drafting, and do the final edit yourself. The output has to sound like Stitch and be worth reading by a bank CTO, not like it came off a content farm.

• Be the taste filter. Everything that leaves the machine passes through your judgement first. You know the difference between content that fills a calendar and content that gets a reply from a decision-maker, and you kill the former.

• Make the whole function faster. Find the manual, repetitive or slow steps in how marketing works, from reporting to list building to creative resizing, and remove them with automation. Your success is measured partly by how much time you hand back to the rest of the team.

• Optimise for cost and token efficiency. You will own the AI spend across marketing. Design prompts, skills, agents and workflows that use the right model for the job, cache and reuse where possible, and avoid burning tokens on work a rule or a template could do. Report on AI cost per output (per call, per post, per report) and drive it down over time without lowering quality.

• Unblock the team. When the Growth Marketing Manager needs a five-minute lead response flow, when Sales needs a new battlecard by tomorrow, or when the founder wants a report that does not exist yet, you are the person who builds it. You will be the go-to for can we make this automatic and the answer is usually yes.

• Run reporting. Build and maintain the automated dashboards and scheduled reports that tell the Head of Marketing and founders what is working: pipeline, MQLs, channel performance, content performance, calling fleet results and AI spend. No manual weekly spreadsheets.

• Keep it safe and sane. Maintain documentation for every workflow and agent so the function does not depend on your memory. Handle data hygiene, permissions, brand voice guardrails for AI outputs, and compliance basics for a company that sells to regulated financial institutions.

What we are looking for

• 4+ years across marketing, content or marketing operations, with at least 2 years of hands-on building AI or automation workflows in a real business, not as a side project.

• Hands-on with our stack or its close equivalents: Claude (Cowork, Projects, skills and agents), ElevenLabs Conversational AI or a comparable AI voice platform, Zapier or Make, lemlist or a similar sequencing tool, Twilio, HubSpot, and at least one social scheduling and monitoring tool. You should be able to open any of these on day one and start building.

• A builder's mindset with a writer's judgement. You have shipped automations that other people rely on, and you have written or edited content that senior B2B buyers read. You can show both.

• Genuine taste. You have a strong view on what good B2B content looks like in financial services and can back it up with examples you made and examples you admire. You notice when copy is generic, when a visual is off-brand, and when an AI output sounds like an AI output.

• Creative problem-solving. You come up with ideas for content formats, distribution angles and workflows that were not on anyone's list, and you can prototype them fast.

• Efficiency-minded. You understand how LLM costs work (tokens, context, model tiers, caching) and you have made deliberate decisions to reduce cost or latency in a workflow. You can explain the trade-offs.

• A service orientation. You like being the person who makes colleagues faster and you are comfortable being interrupted for it. You communicate clearly with non-technical teammates and document what you build.

• Comfortable in fintech or B2B. Experience in banking, financial services or fintech is preferred; B2B experience is essential. You should be able to write credibly about lending, cards and payments infrastructure after a short ramp.

What you will get

• A salary above market rate. We pay to hire the best person for this role, not the cheapest, and the offer will reflect that.

• A clear path to grow. You will be building a function that barely exists in most companies yet. As it proves itself, your remit and compensation grow with it, and you will know what the next step looks like.

• Full ownership. You own the marketing AI stack and the content engine end to end, with real room to experiment and a mandate to replace anything that is slowing the team down.

• Direct access to leadership. You will work day to day with the Head of Marketing and directly with the founder, at a company whose product is itself AI-native infrastructure for banks.

• Full employment package in the UAE. Employment visa and work permit sponsorship, comprehensive medical insurance, 30 days of paid annual leave plus UAE public holidays, and end-of-service gratuity, in line with UAE labour law.
