The role
This senior role, based within the Marketing and Communications team, is accountable for setting business-wide principles and best practices for data management in our HubSpot CRM, and for implementing those practices within our MarComms activity.
You’ll ensure that we’re reaching relevant audiences with targeted content, automated campaigns, and clear calls to action. Working with other senior team members, you’ll ensure that our marketing content, technology, ads, and search optimisation are working together to grow a constant stream of relevant leads and inquiries.
You’ll also work with operational teams to define principles, identify best practices, and document internal processes for managing data and reporting on impact within HubSpot, to inform business-wide training and implementation.
We’re looking for someone who uses their knowledge of database management and analytics to drive and influence our approach. You can help non-technical colleagues understand analytics and apply them to marketing and CRM strategy. You’re our expert on the marketing technology stack we use, including HubSpot’s marketing, CMS and sales products, and various Google analytics and advertising tools.
Key Accountabilities & Responsibilities
Accountable for:
- Owning processes for data management across the business - defining best practice, documenting our approach, implementing marketing activity, and enabling colleagues to work effectively:
- CRM data: You define how and why we use specific field types, records, and datapoints to effectively manage relationships with our clients, prospects, and partners, and provide clear guidance on the use of customer and company records for other CRM users.
- Workflows: You have oversight of automations within HubSpot and a clear understanding of their behavior and impact on the database. You’re accountable for managing and maintaining marketing automations (workflows) for both database management and communications, and for guiding the wider business on best practices for workflows and sequences.
- Contact creation: You define the processes used to import data securely and consistently into HubSpot through manual imports and integrated tools. You’re accountable for the effective completion of marketing-related imports and for management of integrated tools to support our marketing activity
- Custom objects: We use custom objects in HubSpot to track and segment clients and prospects based on feature adoption and other points of engagement. You set standards and provide guidance for effective use of custom objects, and manage their usage within the marketing team.
- Segmentation: You ensure that our data supports an effective segmentation model across all audience groups, and provide the guidance to apply this consistently throughout the business. Within the marketing team, you’re accountable for targeting communications and tracking impact through segmentation and lists.
- Ensuring that every stage of our marketing funnel is optimized for lead generation. You’ll ensure that our website and owned digital channels generate good quality leads and drive conversions, fuelling the growth of our business.
- Determining the marketing tactics we use to reach audiences, build our sales pipelines and engage users. You’ll use data to inform decisions about when and how to use techniques such as advertising, sequences, drip campaigns and tools for lead capture.
- Determining and executing our paid advertising strategy. You’ll plan and implement paid advertising campaigns that support lead generation and contribute to brand awareness.
- Ensuring that marketing, sales, and events teams are able to use data effectively to inform campaign prioritization. You’ll ensure that our analytics and reporting are accurate and relevant, helping to understand which sector-facing activity is positively impacting our pipeline and identifying areas for growth. As the in-house HubSpot expert, you’ll also support teams across the business to make good use of reporting tools and to align measures across business areas.
- Ensuring that our marketing channels are performing effectively. We communicate with our potential and existing customers using a broad range of digital channels, services and tools. You’ll ensure that key performance measures are in place for each channel so that we can be confident they’re working, and where improvements are identified, you’ll own the process of implementing them.
- Managing the marketing and communications tools that are connected to our HubSpot CRM. This means maintaining the connections between HubSpot and a variety of analytics, social media tools and software plugins. You’ll ensure they’re functioning correctly, are fit for purpose and that we understand their impact on our CRM database.
- Cross-business working: You’ll work with stakeholders across the business to build an effective, consistent, and transparent approach to database operations: considering how HubSpot works with other key business tools (e.g. Zendesk) and how marketing and communications priorities align with those of client relationship managers, business intelligence, and other operational teams.
Responsible for:
- Working with our business development teams to make sure that sales and marketing strategy are closely aligned, and that our lead management framework effectively helps both teams understand lead stage and sources
- Working with our client success strategy and operations team to ensure that our strategy for tracking and measuring communications impact and customer analysis is closely aligned, and that we’re effectively using our shared tools to improve segmentation, knowledge and analytics.
- Working with team members to plan our roadmap of marketing activity, delivering that activity on our agreed schedule.
- Providing clear process documentation to guide consistent, effective use of HubSpot by teams across the business, and consulting with other teams to embed best practices across our shared tools.
