Your mission

As Vice President of Marketing, you will be responsible for the strategic and operational direction of the entire marketing department. You will lead a growing, high-performing team across marketing and sales partnerships and play a key role in making the business more scalable, positioning our brand in the market – and building something special. You are not only strategically savvy, but also eager to get involved in operational tasks.

What you’ll do

• Sales and budget responsibility:
  • You are responsible for marketing budgets and their efficient use.
  • Optimisation of marketing ROI through targeted channel integration and scaling.
  • Control and analysis of standard SaaS marketing KPIs to ensure target achievement.
• Create excitement (brand building):
  • You rethink topics and are not afraid to implement them yourself – you develop a brand that is unique within the HR tech industry and clearly stands out from the competition.
  • You are the driving force behind our identity – with the goal of not only being visible, but also noticeably different.
  • You develop target group-specific brand messages optimised for SaaS products and creative campaigns that leave a lasting impression on all relevant target groups.
• Maximise Impact (Performance Marketing):
  • You are responsible for the strategy and implementation of performance channels such as SEA, SEO, paid social, etc.
  • You test, evaluate and scale new growth levers and channels.
  • You will ensure that our campaigns work along the funnel of a SaaS company – from awareness to conversion – and optimise overall customer acquisition costs.
  • You have a proven track record of working with SaaS KPIs and data-driven marketing strategies (ARR, MRR, churn, etc.).
  • Ideally, you have experience at the interface between marketing and product – you understand MarTech stacks, are familiar with tracking concepts, work closely with product and data teams, and develop data-driven strategies along the entire user journey.
• Customer is King (Partnerships):
  • You will lead the Sales Partnerships team, develop it strategically and ensure that our service level inspires our customers.
  • In doing so, you will increase customer lifetime value and ensure maximum customer satisfaction and loyalty.
  • You will identify, develop and manage strategic enterprise sales and marketing partnerships and build a high-revenue partner network.
  • In doing so, you will organise trust-building and sales-promoting measures such as
  • webinars, trade fair appearances and round tables.
  • You will be involved in the strategic and operational planning of go-to-market teams in the enterprise software environment.
• 1 team, 1 goal (teamwork):
  • You will lead, support and develop a growing team – always ready to get involved in the implementation yourself, empathetic and with a clear eye for performance and potential.
  • You build structures and processes that enable focus, speed and clarity in a dynamic HR tech environment – and you are always honest, direct and open to criticism.
  • You work closely with other departments and the founding team, share and promote ideas, and help shape an active and constructive feedback culture.
