What the job involves
- We’re looking for a Head of product marketing to join our Content and Comms team. This is a newly created role designed to accelerate the growth and impact of Seccl’s brand. You’ll lead how Seccl’s suite of software and services is positioned, articulated and taken to market
- As a core part of our commercial function, you’ll define and drive a product marketing strategy that helps digital banks, wealthtechs, investment platforms and adviser firms clearly understand how Seccl can power their investment propositions — at speed and at scale
- The Content and Comms team sits at the centre of how Seccl shows up in the market. We shape our brand and drive awareness and engagement through content, campaigns and events. As we scale, we’re focused on delivering creative, insight-led activity that directly supports commercial outcomes and strengthens our position in the industry
- Working at the heart of the business and partnering closely with Product, Marketing and Commercial teams, you’ll build the messaging frameworks, positioning and go-to-market structure that connect what we build to the value our clients care about most
- You’ll play a pivotal role in ensuring our propositions are clear, differentiated and consistently adopted — while helping to establish and mature a product marketing function that’s central to Seccl’s next stage of growth
- Shaping and delivering the product marketing strategy that connects what we build to how we sell and communicate it
- Establishing clear frameworks for positioning, messaging and market segmentation to guide commercial activity
- Equipping the commercial team with compelling value propositions, clear messaging and competitive insight
- Developing a strong understanding of our target market and ideal customer profile
- Leading go-to-market planning for launches and releases, ensuring aligned objectives and coordinated cross-team activity
- Capturing and sharing customer and market insight to inform propositions, messaging and go-to-market decisions
- Coaching and developing a small, high-performing product marketing team
- Championing clarity, collaboration and evidence-based decision-making across the commercial engine
Application process
- We’ll only close this role once we have enough applications for the next stage. Please submit your application as soon as possible to make sure you don’t miss out and you should expect to hear back from us within one to two weeks of applying
- Interviewing is a two-way thing, and we want you to have the time and opportunity to get to know us, as much as we are getting to know you. Our interviews are conversational, so come with questions and be curious
- In general, you can expect the interview process to look a bit like this, (following an initial chat with one of our Talent team):
- First stage – 45 mins competencies-based interview with the hiring manager and Product, marketing and insight lead
- Second stage – one-hour technical interview or assessment with several key stakeholders from across the business
- Final stage – 45 mins bar-raiser culture-based interview
