My client is a large, mission-driven organisation operating at national scale, supporting millions of customers. Following the launch of a new corporate strategy in 2025, the organisation is investing significantly in modern marketing technology to enable more personalised, engaging and effective customer experiences.
They are now seeking an experienced Martech Programme Manager to lead the introduction of new marketing technologies across the business. This is a high-profile role, responsible for shaping and delivering a complex programme at the intersection of marketing, data and technology.
The Opportunity
This programme represents a greenfield Martech implementation, introducing new platforms and capabilities rather than migrating from an existing stack. Working closely with senior stakeholders, our partner organisation and selected vendors, you will shape the programme, define delivery scope and drive execution at pace to support organisational priorities within the current year.
Reporting to the Change Programme Director, you will operate with a high degree of autonomy and visibility across the organisation.
Key Responsibilities
- Own end-to-end programme planning and delivery across multiple Martech initiatives
- Shape programme scope, workstreams and delivery approach following vendor selection
- Lead governance, reporting, RAID management and stakeholder communications
- Partner with Marketing, Data, Technology, our partner organisation and external vendors to deliver new Martech platforms
- Manage dependencies across the wider change portfolio
- Ensure high-quality delivery aligned to approved methodologies
- Drive continuous improvement and embed strong ways of working
What We’re Looking For
- Proven experience delivering complex Martech programmes in large, enterprise or regulated environments
- Strong hands-on experience with Martech stacks (e.g. CRM, CDP, CMS, analytics, decisioning, ESPs)
- Track record of leading cross-functional teams and engaging senior stakeholders
- Confidence operating in ambiguity and shaping programmes from early definition
- Experience managing third-party suppliers and formal governance forums
- Strong communication, leadership and problem-solving skills
- Financial services experience beneficial but not essential
Why Apply
This is a rare opportunity to build a modern marketing technology capability from the ground up, shaping how millions of customers engage with essential services. You will join a mature and supportive change environment, working on a programme with genuine strategic importance and executive visibility.
Apply now to play a pivotal role in delivering a flagship Martech transformation programme.
