Interim Head of Marketing (12-Month Contract) High-Growth AI Tech Startup

We’re working with one of Ireland’s most exciting AI startups, entering a transformative stage of growth as they scale from Series A to Series B. Backed by top-tier investors and trusted by global customers, this company is redefining how businesses deliver customer service using AI-powered automation.

They’re now hiring an Interim Head of Marketing to lead the function through a 12-month maternity cover — starting December. If you’re a demand gen-driven marketing leader who thrives in high-growth environments, this is a rare chance to step into a key leadership role at a pivotal moment.

🌟 Why This Role?

  • High Impact: Own marketing strategy at leadership level and directly influence the company’s next phase of growth.
  • Demand Gen at the Core: Build and scale programs that drive inbound pipeline and accelerate revenue.
  • Fast-Paced, Collaborative Culture: Work closely with Sales, Product, and Customer Success in a scaling B2B tech environment.
  • Real Ownership: Manage team, budget, strategy, and agency partners — and get hands-on when needed.

🔥 What You’ll Be Doing

While no day is the same in start-up life, here’s what you’ll own:

  • Leading, mentoring, and developing a small but high-performing marketing team (currently two FTEs).
  • Driving pipeline growth through targeted demand generation strategies and full-funnel optimization.
  • Delivering a strategic calendar of campaigns, content, and events that resonate with the right audiences.
  • Managing relationships with freelancers, consultants, and strategic partners to scale execution.
  • Collaborating cross-functionally to support product launches, customer marketing, and sales enablement.
  • Representing Marketing at the leadership table and aligning marketing strategy to commercial goals.
  • Owning forecasting, budgeting, and reporting on all marketing activities and KPIs.

🧠 About You

You’re a hands-on, growth-minded marketer who knows how to get results — and you love the thrill of scaling a start-up. You bring:

  • A strong track record of leading Marketing in a fast-growing tech environment (Series A or beyond).
  • Deep experience in demand generation, inbound marketing, and pipeline acceleration.
  • Confidence working across the entire funnel and balancing strategic and tactical work.
  • Experience in B2B SaaS or targeting industries with high customer service needs (e.g. ecommerce, travel, gaming) — a bonus.
  • Strong leadership, stakeholder management, and commercial acumen.

📍 Location & Working Model

This role is based in Dublin, with a hybrid model — 2-3 days per week in the office.
