We see you

You're curious about how AI might lighten the load of repetitive tasks, but you wonder if it can truly capture the nuance and creativity of human writing. It's a balancing act between embracing innovation and maintaining the authenticity of your voice.

1What this role really is

This isn't a 'strategy' role; it's where the rubber meets the road. You'll be the engine room of our B2B marketing efforts, making sure campaigns actually go out the door, leads flow correctly, and our sales team has what they need to close deals. Think of yourself as the central nervous system for our demand generation, keeping everything connected and firing.

4What 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 inWhere you are nowThe step above
Campaign Launch TimingFollows manager's instruction or pre-defined calendar.Decides within a pre-approved window (e.g., 'send Tuesday or Wednesday') based on best practice, informs manager.Proposes optimal launch dates based on market factors, audience behaviour, and other campaigns, seeks manager approval.
Marketing Automation Programme ConfigurationExecutes pre-defined steps in existing programmes.Independently builds new simple programmes (e.g., single email nurture) or modifies existing ones, seeks manager review before live.Designs complex multi-touch nurture streams, including lead scoring logic, and gets sign-off from manager/stakeholders.
Data Segmentation for CampaignsUses existing, pre-built segments for campaigns.Creates new segments based on defined criteria (e.g., industry, job title, engagement), reviews with manager for accuracy.Develops sophisticated segmentation strategies based on behavioural and firmographic data, optimises for campaign performance.
Troubleshooting Technical IssuesIdentifies issues (e.g., broken link, sync error) and reports to manager.Investigates routine issues, proposes a solution, and implements with manager's approval. Escalates complex issues.Diagnoses and resolves complex technical issues, often involving multiple platforms, and documents solutions for the team.

5How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, honestly: the hard targets, how often each one is actually looked at, and the quiet human signals that never make it onto a dashboard.

Data Accuracy on List Uploads
The percentage of contacts uploaded to our marketing automation platform or CRM without errors (e.g., duplicates, incorrect formatting, missing fields).
Target · < 5% error rate

You upload a list of 1,000 webinar registrants. If 30 of those have missing company names or duplicate email addresses, that's a 3% error rate – well within target.

Campaign Execution Speed
The average time it takes from receiving a fully approved campaign brief and assets to launching the campaign (e.g., email send, landing page live, webinar setup).
Target · Webinar setup within 48 hours; email sends within 24 hours

A webinar brief lands on Monday morning, and the registration page is live by Wednesday morning. That's hitting the 48-hour target, which keeps us on track for registrations.

MQL Volume from Managed Activities
The number of Marketing Qualified Leads (MQLs) generated directly from the campaigns and programmes you're responsible for executing.
Target · 150+ MQLs per quarter

In Q2, your efforts on the monthly newsletter and two webinars directly resulted in 180 MQLs, meaning you've exceeded the target and fed the sales team well.

Nurture Stream Completion Rate
The percentage of leads who enter a nurture stream and complete the entire sequence of emails.
Target · > 20% completion rate

Out of 500 leads entering the 'Intro to Product X' nurture, 120 completed all emails and reached the end. That's 24%, showing the content is engaging enough to keep them hooked.

Proactive Communication & Problem Solving
How well you communicate potential issues or delays before they become problems, and your ability to suggest solutions for routine snags.
  • You'll be the one giving the Marketing Manager a heads-up if a campaign asset is late, offering a workaround, rather than waiting for them to chase you. Sales will tell us you're great at letting them know about new campaign launches ahead of time. You'll spot a sync error between Marketo and Salesforce and propose a fix, not just report it.
Reliable Delivery & Follow-Through
Your consistency in delivering tasks as promised, meeting deadlines, and ensuring all campaign elements are fully executed.
  • If you say a list will be uploaded by 3 PM, it's done. Campaign reports are pulled without prompting. You don't leave loose ends
  • if a webinar needs follow-up emails, you make sure they're scheduled. Your colleagues won't need to chase you for updates because you're already providing them.
Stakeholder Satisfaction (Internal)
How happy our internal teams (especially Sales and Product Marketing) are with the support you provide for their initiatives.
  • Sales will tell us you're easy to work with and responsive. Product Marketing will appreciate that you accurately translate their content into campaign assets. You'll get positive feedback in our quarterly internal surveys, and people will actively seek your help for their projects because they trust you to get it right.

6Would you like it

The honest version. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Seeing Your Work Go Live and Deliver

You get a real buzz from hitting 'send' on a big email campaign or launching a webinar registration page. You then eagerly check the reports to see the open rates, clicks, and new leads coming in. It's about the tangible outcome of your efforts.

After spending two days setting up a complex nurture stream, you see the first batch of leads enter, and within a week, some have already converted to MQLs. That's a direct result of your work.

Being the Go-To Person for Execution

You enjoy being the expert on 'how to actually get this done' within our marketing tools. People come to you for advice on campaign setup or data queries, and you like being able to unblock them.

A product marketer asks how to set up a specific A/B test in Marketo, and you can confidently walk them through the steps or even build it for them, feeling valued for your technical know-how.

Supporting the Sales Team's Success

You feel a sense of purpose knowing that the leads you're generating and the sales enablement materials you're organising are directly helping the sales team close deals. You like being a vital part of the revenue engine.

A sales rep thanks you for a well-organised case study that helped them win a big client, or for a timely lead that turned into a promising opportunity. That positive feedback really motivates you.

What frustrates people
  • The 'Dirty Data' Vortex: You'll spend a fair bit of your time cleaning up messy spreadsheets from sales or third-party list buys before you can even think about launching a campaign. It's tedious, but absolutely necessary.
  • Sales vs. Marketing Lead Quality Debate: You'll likely find yourself constantly defending the quality of your MQLs to a sales team who, let's be real, will sometimes claim 'they're all trash' to avoid making calls. It's a perennial battle.
  • The Last-Minute 'Urgent' Request: Expect the sales VP to demand a one-off email blast *right now* that bypasses all established processes, segmentation rules, and brand guidelines. You'll need to push back gracefully.
  • Attribution Hell: Trying to prove the ROI of your top-of-funnel activities can be a nightmare when the sales cycle is long and involves 15 different touchpoints. It's not always clear-cut.
  • The 'Set It and Forget It' Myth: Stakeholders often assume a nurture stream, once built, runs itself forever. They don't always grasp the need for constant testing, optimisation, and content refreshes. You'll be the one doing that work.
  • Being the 'Button Pusher': Sometimes, you might feel like you're just executing on others' strategies without being given the opportunity to contribute your own ideas. It's a coordinator role, so that's part of it, but it can be frustrating.
  • Collateral Black Hole: You'll create beautiful sales enablement pieces, only to find out months later that the sales team never used them because they couldn't find them on the shared drive. It's a constant battle to make things accessible.
What this role does not give you
  • High-level strategic decision-making – that's for your manager and above.
  • A perfectly clean, predictable workflow every day – expect interruptions and shifting priorities.
  • A quiet, solitary work environment – you'll be collaborating and communicating constantly.
  • The chance to ignore data hygiene – it's a core, non-negotiable part of the job.

7Who you work with

Your work directly fuels our sales pipeline. If you're doing well, we'll have a consistent flow of marketing-qualified leads (MQLs) for sales, which means more opportunities to bring in new business. Get it wrong, and the pipeline dries up, simple as that. You're a critical cog in the revenue machine, honestly.

Inside the business
  • Your B2B Marketing Manager (for guidance and strategy)
  • The Sales Team (they're your internal customers, really)
  • Product Marketing (for content and messaging)
  • The Creative Team (they'll design the assets you need)
  • Other Marketing Specialists (for campaign collaboration)
Outside the business
  • Marketing Automation Platform Support (Marketo/Pardot)
  • Webinar Platform Support (Zoom Webinars/ON24)
  • CRM Support (Salesforce/HubSpot)

8What 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 in a B2B marketing role, ideally with exposure to marketing automation platforms.
  • Demonstrable experience in executing email campaigns, managing data, and supporting digital marketing initiatives.
  • A solid understanding of the B2B sales cycle and the role marketing plays in generating leads.
  • Proven ability to manage multiple tasks and deadlines in a fast-paced environment (yes, we know everyone says 'fast-paced', but here it means 2-3 urgent requests weekly that mess up your plans).

9What to practise next

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

Advanced Marketing Automation Configuration

As our campaigns become more sophisticated, you'll need to move beyond basic email sends. This means understanding more complex flow logic, dynamic content, and basic API integrations for seamless data flow.

Complex Nurture Flow Logic · Dynamic Content & Personalisation · Basic API Integration Understanding · Lead Scoring Model Optimisation

  • This week: Dive deeper into Marketo/Pardot documentation on dynamic content and advanced flow steps.
  • This month: Shadow a senior colleague or your manager when they're building a complex nurture stream.
  • Month 2: Take ownership of optimising one existing nurture stream by adding a new branch or dynamic content block.
  • Month 3: Explore the integration settings between Marketo/Pardot and Salesforce/HubSpot to understand data syncs.

Quick win: Start using more tokens in your emails for basic personalisation (e.g., first name, company name) and see the impact on engagement.

Enhanced CRM Reporting & Troubleshooting

Sales will always need better data, and you'll be the one helping to provide it. This means moving beyond standard reports to building custom dashboards and proactively troubleshooting data sync issues between our marketing and sales platforms.

Custom Report & Dashboard Building · Data Sync Error Diagnosis · Campaign Object Management · Sales Process & Lead Follow-up Training

  • This week: Spend an hour exploring the custom report builder in Salesforce/HubSpot.
  • This month: Build one new custom report that answers a question your manager or a sales rep has asked recently.
  • Month 2: Work with your manager to identify a recurring data sync issue and try to diagnose its root cause.
  • Month 3: Offer to provide a quick training session to a new sales rep on how to find and use marketing leads in the CRM.

Quick win: Create a 'My Top 5 MQLs' dashboard for a sales rep you work closely with. They'll love it.

10Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up
  • Regularly follow industry blogs and thought leaders (e.g., MarketingProfs, Demand Gen Report) to stay on top of B2B marketing trends and best practices.
  • Participate in online communities or forums for Marketo/Pardot or Salesforce users. It's a great way to learn from others and troubleshoot problems.
  • Attend relevant webinars (yes, the ones you'll be setting up!) and virtual events to deepen your knowledge of specific marketing tactics or tools.
  • Take advantage of any internal training programmes we offer on our marketing platforms or new marketing methodologies.
  • Shadow more senior colleagues to understand how they approach complex campaign design or data analysis. Learning by doing (and watching) is key.

11How the AI economy is changing work like this

Before we ask anything of you, here's what we can already say about AI and work of this kind:

A broad read on this kind of work, not an analysis of this job on its own. Roles that share a pattern get the same answer here.

Fading: AI does more of this

AI is taking over the tedious work of keyword research and initial content drafts.

Rising: worth more because of AI

Your ability to interpret data and craft compelling narratives becomes even more valuable.

The new skill this role is being asked for: AI-Assisted Content Creation & Optimisation

AI tools are getting incredibly good at drafting marketing copy, subject lines, and even basic blog posts. You won't be a full-time copywriter, but knowing how to prompt AI effectively means you can produce more, faster, and free up time for higher-value work.

We'll only ever tell you what we can actually back up. No hype, no scare tactics.

The ten Future Fluencies

Zavmo analysis

The credential is what you can do today. These are what keep you valuable.

A qualification proves you can do the job as it's defined today. These ten are what decide whether you're still the obvious person for it in five years. They're the capabilities employers are now writing into senior roles faster than people are learning them. Zavmo weaves them through whatever you study, so you come out with both: the credential and the fluency.

The highlighted ones are the Fluencies your role leans on hardest, from how B2B Marketing Coordinator is actually changing. In about two minutes, the free confidence check asks where you stand on each of the ten. That's the whole check, and it's what makes the plan yours rather than generic.

No two people run this the same way

A course is written once and handed to everyone. This is assembled around you, and keeps changing as it learns you. Five things it reads, and what each one changes.

  1. Your actual work Every lesson is taught against a live piece of your own work, not a worked example from a textbook.
  2. What you already know The first conversation finds your starting point, so you skip what you can already do and spend the time on what you cannot.
  3. The conditions you learn under Not a learning-styles quiz. The evidence does not support those. The dimensions the research does back, read once and used to shape the plan.
  4. How far you got last time It picks up mid-thought. The tutor knows what you said, what you struggled with, and what it asked you to try.
  5. Which tutor suits the moment Twelve of them, each for a different kind of thinking. The one who walks you through a first idea is not the one who stress-tests it.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, some parts of marketing coordination can be a bit repetitive. But what if you could shave hours off those tasks every week? That's where AI comes in. It's not here to replace you; it's here to make you faster, more efficient, and free up your time for more interesting work.

Imagine having a super-smart assistant that can draft your emails, analyse your campaign data, or even research target accounts for you. That's the reality of AI in B2B marketing right now. You'll learn to use these tools to automate the tedious bits, giving you more time to focus on optimising campaigns and really understanding what makes our customers tick.

First-Draft Nurture Copywriter

Use AI tools like Jasper or Copy.ai to generate initial drafts of nurture emails based on a simple content brief and target persona. You'll spend your time refining and adding that human touch, rather than staring at a blank page. It's a massive head start.

Campaign Insight Generator

Feed your raw campaign data (opens, clicks, conversions) into AI analytics tools. They can instantly spot top-performing segments, A/B test winners, or unusual trends that would take you hours to find manually in a spreadsheet. It's like having a data analyst on demand.

ABM Account Researcher

Use AI-powered sales intelligence tools (or even ChatGPT with web browsing) to quickly summarise a target account's recent news, key initiatives, and executive priorities. This helps you and the sales team personalise outreach faster and more effectively.

Internal Comms Assistant

Let AI draft your internal communications, like campaign launch announcements for the sales team or post-mortem summary reports for stakeholders. It ensures consistent, clear messaging and saves you time on writing those routine updates.

The honest bit

You’ve started things before

Most of them were built for a room full of people who aren’t you. A cohort moves on whether or not your week allowed it, and by the third week the thing you’re behind on becomes the reason you stop opening it.

There’s no cohort here, and no timetable to fall behind. Before anything starts, Zavmo asks when you’re sharpest and how long you can realistically sit down for, then builds the sessions around those answers. A bad fortnight changes your pace. It doesn’t put you behind.

And you only pay once you start learning. Searching and planning are free, and you can cancel any time — so the cost of finding out is an afternoon, not a year.

What it costs

Less than one coaching session. Every month.

A single career-coaching hour costs more than a month of this, and it ends when the hour does. Zavmo doesn't. It's £70 a month, about £2.30 a day, for a companion that knows a B2B Marketing Coordinator, works on the job you actually do, and keeps going at your pace rather than a timetable's.

  • Searching and planning stay free. You only pay when you start learning.
  • Your credits are yours. Regulated, and they don't vanish when a subscription ends.
  • Cancel any time and billing stops. No notice period, no minimum term.
