Lead marketing strategy and organization for an AI engineering company focused on enterprise growth and market positioning.
О компании
- Run a regular alignment cadence with the CEO, commercial leadership, Product, Engineering and the marketing team.
- Pressure-test assumptions, surface decisions early, and set and defend trade-offs so the function stays focused rather than reactive to every new request.
- Hold a shared marketing vision that is stable enough for the team to build against and adaptable when the company or market genuinely changes.
- Represent Neural Concept externally with customers, partners, analysts, media and industry leaders.
Обязанности
- Neural Concept builds category defining AI that helps engineers design better physical products, faster. Our technology is used by leading engineering organizations, including Formula 1 teams and major automotive manufacturers across Europe and Asia. We are defining a new category, AI for Engineering, and we are looking for a Chief Marketing Officer to establish it and build the marketing organization required for our next stage of global growth.
- Reporting to the CEO, you will lead an established international team and own our market positioning, product narrative, growth strategy and marketing operating model. You will combine a deep understanding of complex technology and enterprise customers with the ability to set priorities, scale teams and stay personally involved in the work that matters most.
- You will inherit a capable specialist team spanning product marketing, brand and communications, digital and marketing operations, creative, partner marketing and regional field marketing. Your job is to give that team a clear, durable strategy, connect our technology and market narrative to enterprise growth, and make disciplined choices about priorities, organization and resource allocation.
- Your work will shape how a new category is understood across the engineering world and influence how global manufacturers adopt AI in their design processes.
Требования
- Typically 12+ years in marketing, including several years owning a full marketing mandate at VP or C level. You understand product marketing, category creation, brand, demand generation, field marketing and enterprise go-to-market well enough to lead and integrate them, without needing to be the direct specialist in each.

Другое
- Own Neural Concept's point of view, differentiation, customer value proposition and category story around AI for Engineering.
- Translate complex technology into a narrative that lands with engineers, executive buyers, partners, analysts and the broader market, and turn it into product marketing, sales enablement, launches, customer stories and executive-level commercial materials.
- Keep it consistent across the product story, sales motion, customer conversations, partnerships and company communications.
- Set the structure, priorities, processes and decision cadence needed to scale the function.
- Decide where to deploy internal resources, which capabilities to build in-house, and where to use agencies or external partners.
- Make explicit what the team is doing, why it matters, what it is not doing, and how success is measured.
- Define how marketing creates opportunities, accelerates pipeline and supports large enterprise deals, with particular attention to the highest-value opportunities in the pipeline, the US market, account-based marketing, and field and executive marketing.
- Own the path from target account and engagement to qualified opportunity, and report on the indicators marketing is accountable for: 1.) opportunity creation, 2.) marketing-sourced and marketing-influenced pipeline, 3.) account engagement, 4.) brand authority and 5.) customer advocacy.
- Build an integrated growth engine across ABM, field, digital, partner marketing and demand generation, aimed at technical users, champions, economic buyers and full buying committees.
- Use customer evidence, partners, analysts, PR, thought leadership and major industry moments to amplify Neural Concept's position.
- Strengthen partner marketing and connect it to the demand engine rather than running partnerships as isolated announcements, so customers and the ecosystem tell the company's story alongside it.
- Give the specialist team clear priorities, decision-making frameworks and accountability across product marketing, brand and communications, digital and marketing operations, creative, partner marketing and regional field marketing.
- Stay personally involved in the highest-impact work: positioning, strategic campaigns, major launches, customer narratives and critical enterprise opportunities.

- Strong product marketing and positioning capability.

- Positioning and messaging, product marketing, category design, account-based marketing, demand generation, field and executive marketing, marketing analytics and pipeline attribution, budget ownership, organization design, go-to-market strategy.
- Intellectually curious and commercially rigorous, and measures marketing by the outcomes it drives, not the volume of activity.
- Able to challenge assumptions without creating unnecessary friction.
- Brings an independent, professional marketing perspective rather than waiting for the CEO or commercial team to define marketing.
- Comfortable moving between strategy and execution: defining the category one day, reviewing an ABM campaign or a customer narrative the next, then deciding where not to invest.

- Communicates trade-offs and priorities clearly.
