With more than 900 specialists and over 1,600 technical certifications, we are bringing together expertise across cloud, AI, compliance, data, customer experience and business applications.

We combine deep expertise across Microsoft Business Applications, Power Platform, AI, DevOps, Data and cloud technologies. With a strong focus on outcomes and real-world value, we make digital transformation feel tangible, purposeful and fast-moving.

We are actively seeking a Marketing Lead for the Private Sector to work closely with the Marketing Director and senior management to research, plan, execute and report on marketing strategies that are measurable and aligned to our sector sales strategy. We’re looking for an individual who has proven experience in managing campaigns and is keen for the next step in their career to be responsible for marketing across multiple industries. The successful candidate will work across our Private Sector sub-verticals: Commercial, Housing, Social Enterprise, Charities and Further Education. You will develop campaigns that reflect the needs of each audience, building tailored awareness of our brand and finding customers ready to engage with sales.

As an experienced technology marketeer, you will know how to put the right content in front of the right people to generate interest and sales opportunities and generate pipeline. You will bring a mix of content, account-based marketing (ABM), partner marketing, events and digital campaign experience. Working in a busy, growth-focused marketing department, you will balance hands-on delivery with campaign planning and commercial reporting. A strong understanding of our core sectors and ideal customer profiles (ICPs) will be critical to identifying target accounts, creating relevant messaging and working with sales to turn engagement into measurable pipeline. You will also work with Microsoft and our wider partners to identify joint marketing opportunities and align campaigns with relevant sector and technology priorities.

We’re willing to invest in an individual looking to make the next step in their career and support with training and growth plans to make a stamp on the way marketing is done within our organisation. If you are looking to work within an existing, talented team by getting your hands dirty with content and campaigns one day, then talking strategy and reports directly with Senior Management the next, this is the role for you. You’ll be used to working across multiple departments and have fun doing it as part of a global team. By helping us tell our story you will help us show clients what it is like to work with Kerv and inspire potential recruits to join us. You’ll be rewarded with a clear career trajectory and training opportunities, as well as the opportunity to learn more about cutting edge tech.

You will be given freedom to help develop our Private Sector marketing strategy, tailoring activity to each sub-vertical, and work with the wider team to understand and implement the Kerv brand values and make sure our USP shines through. You will work closely with our technical teams to translate expertise in Microsoft Dynamics 365, Power Platform, Azure, data and AI into relevant, outcome-led campaigns. You will actively look for opportunities to use AI to improve marketing insight, campaign delivery and efficiency, as well as identify customer needs that could inform campaigns for our AI capabilities.
