Colossyan is an AI-powered training and enablement platform used by leading organizations like Paramount, Ericsson, Cisco, and Johnson & Johnson to create, manage, and scale training content. The company has generated over 1 million videos and is recognized as a G2 Leader with a Red Dot Design Award. The team is 70+ people, fast-growing, and international.
The marketing function is in early stages with significant opportunity to build strategy from the ground up. Currently, there is a team of three running organic content (publishing weekly, ranking for key terms), paid acquisition across Google, LinkedIn, and Meta, and pipeline from both self-serve and enterprise channels. However, these pieces do not yet form a cohesive system.
As Head of Marketing (Growth), you will own the full growth pipeline end-to-end and report directly to the CEO. You will personally manage paid acquisition accounts (Google, LinkedIn, Meta) to maintain calibrated judgment on CAC and performance. You will drive organic growth through SEO, content strategy, and AI search positioning. You will optimize conversion across the funnel, particularly the handoff between self-serve and enterprise sales motions. You will lead product marketing including positioning, product launches, and sales messaging. You will manage a team of three and make hiring decisions for future growth.
The role is distinctive because strategy is genuinely unwritten—you will not inherit five years of legacy decisions to unpick. You set pipeline targets with leadership, then own hitting them. The company runs both self-serve and enterprise sales channels simultaneously, requiring comfort navigating different sales dynamics.
Colossyan offers stock options for all employees, one week of remote work per quarter, free lunches and breakfasts, a centrally-located pet-friendly office, birthday time off, flexible annual leave (25 days base, up to 33 with bank holiday conversion), private healthcare via Bupa, and matched pension contributions.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Minimum 6+ years carrying a pipeline number at a B2B SaaS company
- Recent hands-on experience building and running paid acquisition accounts (Google, LinkedIn, Meta); judgment strong enough to override agency recommendations
- Demonstrated point of view on organic growth and AI search trends
- 2-4 years managing people, including difficult management responsibilities
- Comfort operating in both self-serve funnel and enterprise sales cycles
- Proactive reporting of metrics and pipeline issues
NICE-TO-HAVE:
- Background at a performance agency or high-volume growth team
- Experience launching into new markets
- Prior exposure to AI, content creation, L&D, or HR tech
