5What you'd actually use

The tools this job runs on, and how well you'd need to know each one.

HubSpot (or Marketo/Pardot) Intermediate

Building email nurtures, designing landing pages from templates, creating forms, segmenting contact lists, pulling standard campaign performance reports.

Salesforce (Sales Cloud) Intermediate

Running reports on lead status, building dashboards to track MQL-to-SQL conversion, understanding lead/contact/opportunity objects, and tracing a lead's journey.

6What you get to decide, and how that grows

Power in a job isn't your title. It's what you're allowed to decide. Here's how it grows as you move up.

The choiceComing in Where you are nowThe step above
Campaign Budget Allocation (within a single campaign) No authority. Must get approval for any spend. Can adjust daily ad budgets by up to ±10% within a planned campaign. Any larger shifts or reallocations between channels need Senior Campaign Manager approval. Can reallocate budgets up to £5K between channels within a programme. Significant budget increases or new channel investments require Director approval.
Campaign Launch Timing Follows schedule set by manager. No independent changes. Can adjust minor launch timings (e.g., email send time by a few hours) to optimise performance. Major delays or rescheduling requires Senior Campaign Manager consultation. Can approve minor delays (up to 24 hours) if justified by technical issues or optimisation. Significant calendar changes require Director approval and cross-functional alignment.
A/B Test Design & Implementation Executes tests designed by manager. Designs and implements A/B tests on specific campaign elements (e.g., ad copy, email subject lines, landing page CTAs), ensuring statistical significance. Consults manager on test strategy. Designs and implements multivariate tests across multiple campaign elements. Defines the overall testing roadmap and methodology for the team. Makes recommendations to Product on landing page changes.
Creative & Copy Approval Submits all creative/copy for manager approval. Reviews and provides feedback on creative and copy from the content team, ensuring it aligns with the campaign brief. Minor edits can be approved; major changes need Senior Campaign Manager sign-off. Provides final approval on creative and copy for campaigns within their portfolio, ensuring brand consistency and strategic alignment. Challenges creative team if assets don't meet objectives.

7How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, and what is not on it. The hard targets, how often each is actually looked at, and the quiet signals that never reach a dashboard.

Campaign Lead Volume
Number of Marketing Qualified Leads (MQLs) generated by your campaigns.
Target · Hit 90% of monthly MQL target for assigned campaigns.

If your assigned campaigns have a target of 200 MQLs for the month, you'll aim for at least 180. We'll check this every week to make sure we're on track.

Cost Per Lead (CPL)
The average cost to acquire one MQL through your paid campaigns.
Target · Keep CPL within 10% of the planned budget for each campaign.

If a campaign's planned CPL is £50, you'll work to keep it under £55. If it starts creeping up, you'll need to figure out why and adjust things quickly.

MQL-to-SQL Conversion Rate
The percentage of leads you generate that Sales accepts as genuinely qualified and ready for follow-up.
Target · Maintain or improve the team's average MQL-to-SQL rate (typically around 15-20%).

If you send 100 MQLs to Sales and they accept 18 as SQLs, that's an 18% conversion rate. You'll be looking to keep that number healthy, or even nudge it up a bit.

On-Time Campaign Launch Rate
The percentage of your campaigns that go live on their scheduled launch date.
Target · Achieve >95% on-time launch rate.

Out of 10 campaigns planned for the quarter, you'll aim to launch at least 9 on their original date. We know things happen, but consistent delays can really mess up our overall marketing calendar.

Campaign Brief Quality
How clear, comprehensive, and actionable your campaign briefs are for creative, content, and ad teams.
  • Creative team consistently produces assets that meet campaign goals without excessive revisions. Feedback from content writers indicates briefs are easy to understand. Fewer questions come back after a brief is shared.
Stakeholder Communication
How effectively you keep relevant teams (Sales, Product, Leadership) updated on campaign progress, issues, and results.
  • Sales team feels informed about upcoming campaigns and lead flow. Product marketing agrees on messaging before launch. Proactive updates are sent out, not just reactive responses to questions. You're seen as someone who keeps everyone in the loop.
Process Adherence & Improvement
Your ability to follow established campaign launch processes and suggest practical improvements.
  • Campaigns consistently follow the agreed-upon checklist. You're actively suggesting small tweaks to make things smoother or faster. New team members are able to pick up your documented processes easily.
Problem Solving & Adaptability
How you react and respond when a campaign hits a snag (e.g., ad rejection, landing page error, underperforming channel).
  • When issues arise, you're quickly identifying the root cause and proposing solutions, not just flagging the problem. You can pivot campaign tactics if initial results aren't working, without needing constant hand-holding.

8Would you like it

Both sides. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Seeing Tangible Impact

You'll get a real kick out of seeing your campaigns generate actual leads that turn into sales. You'll be checking dashboards regularly, seeing the numbers tick up, and knowing you made that happen.

Watching the MQL count climb after a new email nurture goes live, or seeing a spike in website traffic directly linked to an ad campaign you launched.

Building & Optimising Systems

If you love taking a messy process and making it slick, you'll enjoy this. You'll be constantly refining how we launch campaigns, making them more efficient and effective over time.

Creating a new Asana template for campaign launches that saves the team two hours, or simplifying a tracking setup that used to cause headaches.

Solving Puzzles with Data

When a campaign isn't performing, you'll enjoy digging into the data to figure out why. It's like being a detective, looking for clues in the numbers to fix the problem.

Realising that a specific ad creative is causing a high bounce rate on the landing page, or that a particular audience segment isn't responding to your email subject lines.

What frustrates people
  • The 'Sales Black Hole': generating great leads only for them to sit untouched in the CRM, then getting asked why marketing's pipeline contribution is low.
  • Last-minute 'genius ideas': a senior leader forwarding a competitor's ad two days before launch with 'can we do something like this?'
  • Attribution Anarchy: trying to prove ROI when Google Analytics, HubSpot, and Salesforce all tell different stories about where a customer came from.
  • Creative by Committee: a brilliant concept getting watered down into a bland mess after feedback from seven different stakeholders.
What this role does not give you
  • A purely strategic role: you'll be hands-on, building and launching.
  • A completely predictable schedule: expect urgent requests and shifts in priority.
  • Unlimited budget for every idea: you'll need to be savvy with your spend.
  • A quiet, heads-down environment: you'll be collaborating and communicating constantly.

9Who you work with

This role directly impacts our lead generation and customer engagement efforts. Get it right, and we've got a healthy sales pipeline and a growing customer base. Get it wrong, and we're burning budget without much to show for it, which isn't ideal for anyone.

Inside the business
  • Creative & Content Team (for assets and copy)
  • Sales Team (for lead quality and follow-up)
  • Product Marketing (for messaging and product launches)
  • Marketing Operations (for system setup and tracking)
Outside the business
  • Media Agencies (for ad placements)
  • CRM/Marketing Automation Vendors (for support tickets)
  • Freelance Copywriters/Designers (occasionally for specific projects)

10What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

  • At least 2 years of hands-on experience running digital marketing campaigns, ideally in a B2B environment, or equivalent experience.
  • Proven ability to set up and manage campaigns within a marketing automation platform (e.g., HubSpot, Marketo) and major ad platforms (Google Ads, Meta Ads).
  • A solid understanding of campaign performance metrics (CPL, CTR, MQLs) and how to interpret them.
  • Experience coordinating with creative and sales teams to deliver campaign assets and manage lead flow.
  • A track record of meeting deadlines and managing multiple projects simultaneously.

11What to practise next

Where the job is going, and what to do about it starting this week.

Advanced Marketing Automation Workflows

As we scale, our lead nurturing and customer journeys will become more complex. You'll need to design multi-branch, personalised workflows that react to user behaviour, not just simple linear sequences.

Conditional Logic & Branching · Lead Scoring Optimisation · Personalisation Tokens & Dynamic Content

  • This week: Review our existing HubSpot/Marketo workflows. Identify one that could be made more dynamic.
  • This month: Take an advanced course on marketing automation workflow design (e.g., HubSpot Academy, Marketo University).
  • Month 2: Propose and build a new, more complex workflow that incorporates conditional logic and personalisation.
  • Month 3: Present the results of your new workflow to the team, showing how it improved engagement or lead quality.

Quick win: Add a simple 'if/then' branch to an existing email nurture based on whether a user clicked a specific link. It's a small step that adds immediate personalisation.

Advanced Paid Media Optimisation

Ad platforms are constantly evolving their bidding strategies, targeting options, and measurement capabilities. You'll need to move beyond basic setup to truly squeeze every penny out of our ad spend and drive better ROI.

Advanced Bidding Strategies · Audience Segmentation & Exclusion · Attribution Modelling (Practical)

  • This week: Dive deep into the 'Recommendations' or 'Optimisation Score' sections of Google Ads and Meta Ads. Understand what they're suggesting.
  • This month: Take a certification in Google Ads or Meta Blueprint focusing on advanced optimisation techniques.
  • Month 2: Implement one new advanced bidding strategy on a test campaign and monitor its performance closely.
  • Month 3: Propose a new audience segmentation strategy for an upcoming campaign based on your learnings.

Quick win: Review your existing ad campaigns and ensure you have comprehensive negative keyword lists. It's a simple but effective way to immediately improve ad efficiency.

12Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up
  • Regularly follow key marketing blogs and industry news (e.g., Marketing Week, Search Engine Journal, Adweek) to stay on top of trends.
  • Attend industry webinars and virtual conferences to learn about new tools and strategies.
  • Participate in online communities or forums for marketing professionals to share knowledge and troubleshoot problems.
  • Take advantage of free online courses from platforms like HubSpot Academy, Google Skillshop, or LinkedIn Learning to deepen your skills in specific areas.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, campaign management involves a lot of repetitive tasks and data crunching. But what if you could offload some of that to AI and focus on the exciting, strategic stuff? Our team is already using AI to make life easier, and you'll be expected to dive in too.

Truth is, AI isn't just a buzzword here; it's a practical helper. From drafting ad copy to spotting trends in your data, these tools can seriously speed up your day-to-day. We're not talking about replacing you, but giving you a superpower to get more done, more accurately, and frankly, with less faff.

Ad Copy & Variant Generation

Imagine needing 10 different ad headlines and 5 body copy options for an A/B test. Instead of staring at a blank screen for an hour, you'll use tools like Jasper.ai or Lately to churn out dozens of variations in minutes. It's brilliant for quickly filling up your testing pipeline and keeping your creatives fresh.

Predictive Audience Segmentation

Forget manually sifting through demographics. AI features within HubSpot or Google Analytics can automatically identify audiences 'most likely to convert' or 'at risk of churn'. You'll use these insights to target your ads and emails more effectively, meaning less wasted spend and better results.

Creative Concept Brainstorming

Need a visual idea for a new campaign but can't quite articulate it to a designer? Use image generation tools like Midjourney. You can rapidly create 5-10 visual concepts, giving your creative team a much clearer starting point. It's a massive time-saver for getting those initial ideas off the ground.

Automated Performance Summaries

Instead of spending hours manually pulling data from Google Ads, Meta, and HubSpot, then trying to write a coherent summary, you'll feed those raw exports into ChatGPT's Advanced Data Analysis. Prompt it to 'Summarise key performance trends, identify the top 3 insights, and flag any anomalies from last week's campaign data.' You'll get a draft summary in minutes, leaving you more time for actual strategy.
