Company Description

Our growing central Marketing team in the UK is looking for a Senior Marketing Technology Executive to drive our ongoing evolution to deliver multi moment, customer first marketing activity to a range of audiences across clients, prospects and talent.

This critical role will be responsible for being the central contact between our in-house marketing team and with experts across the companies' Analytics, B2B, Data & Martech, Experience & Commerce and Strategy & Transformation practice areas.

You will work with these experts to leverage Merkle's best in class capabilities to evolve our own agency marketing practice.

Job Description:

This role will be responsible for driving our ambition to become an adaptive marketing team that will constantly deliver against our audiences' expectations, becoming aligned to the Merkle's EMEA and UK KPIs & metrics to support our UK and regional growth targets.

AEM, Salesforce, Pardot, GA would be an advantage, but it is more attitude and tech savviness that is important here, not the exact experience of what's in our tech stack.

This role will be based in the UK but with opportunities to work across EMEA and with our teams in APAC and the US.

You will be part of an in-house marketing team of ten, who work closely with our leadership in the UK and EMEA, which is an important part of the role.
