Head of Demand Generation

London

Full-time

In office 4 days/week

Why This Role

• You own the demand number across four priority verticals and two distinct go-to-market motions.

• You are hired ahead of your team. Several seats sit open beneath this role, and you get to shape and staff them rather than inherit someone else’s structure.

• Marketing is being built into a measurable engine, and demand generation is the centre of it.

The role

You will own demand generation across Modulr’s priority verticals: Travel, Lending, corporate business payments and SME/accountants. There is a capable team in place and real momentum in the business. Your opportunity is to bring it together into one system, with a shared plan, a clear definition of great and an operating rhythm that turns activity into predictable pipeline.

This is a build, and that is the best part of it. Two vertical owners sit in the team today and a senior events hire is in process. Beyond that, the shape of the function is yours to fill: an SME and accountant specialist, partner and channel marketing, a dedicated outbound capability, and events support behind your events lead. You are hired first precisely so that you can define those roles and hire into them.

The business is varied, with several products, multiple priority verticals and two routes to market that behave very differently. The enterprise and mid-market motion is sales-led and considered. The SME motion runs largely through accountants, who introduce their own clients, and it is high volume and partner-shaped. Running both well is the interesting part of this job.
