Marketing Design Manager

Design Manager, Marketing

Fully Remote (Europe) | High-growth SaaS / Product-led Tech

Candidates must be based in the EU or UK.

We're working with a fast-growing, product-led technology company that's building an in-house creative studio with a very different brief: operate like a high-performing agency, not a traditional internal team.

They need a Marketing Design Manager to help scale the creative and operational engine behind the marketing function across campaigns, lifecycle, paid, CRM, social, product marketing and sales enablement.

This is not a pure brand role. It is also not a “make it look nice” role.

It sits at the intersection of marketing design, growth and lifecycle marketing, systems thinking and hands-on creative execution. The kind of role where you're as proud of the workflow you built as the campaign that ran through it.

What you'll be doing

• Leading marketing creative across paid, CRM/lifecycle, social, campaigns and sales enablement, while ensuring output stays consistently strong at pace
• Building scalable workflows, templates and modular systems that improve how creative gets produced, adapted and iterated
• Working closely with growth and performance teams to evolve creative based on testing, engagement and campaign data

• Helping prioritise and allocate creative output across the wider marketing design function
• Mentoring designers while remaining highly hands-on yourself
• Improving how the internal team operates as the business scales internationally

What they're looking for

Someone who has genuinely operated inside a fast-moving startup or scale-up, not just visited one. You'll know what it feels like when systems do not exist yet and you have to build them while the work keeps coming.

Beyond that:

• Strong hands-on craft across lifecycle, CRM, paid, social and multi-channel campaigns
• Real experience collaborating with growth, demand gen or performance marketing teams, not just sitting adjacent to them
• Strong operational and systems thinking: workflows, templates, scalable design infrastructure and creative velocity
• Commercial awareness and comfort inside performance-led environments where creative decisions are tested and iterated constantly
• Ability to bring structure and raise the bar without needing heavy direction or coaching
• Comfortable operating autonomously across growth, lifecycle, systems and cross-functional marketing execution
• Experience mentoring, guiding or leading designers within high-output environments

Ideal backgrounds

You're probably currently operating as a:

• Marketing Design Lead
• Growth Design Lead
• Creative Lead
• Brand Systems Lead
• Marketing Design Manager

inside a high-growth SaaS, fintech or product-led environment.

The strongest candidates will usually come from companies where speed, experimentation and cross-functional collaboration are not aspirational values, they are simply how the business operates day-to-day.

The setup

• Fully remote across Europe
• Small, highly collaborative international team
• High autonomy and real influence on how the function develops
• Competitive salary and package depending on experience
