• Lead and optimise Hadean’s online presence — including the website, SEO/SEM, content, and analytics — to drive inbound interest and market credibility.
  

• Build and maintain a strong events strategy: identify and secure key defence and dual-use tech events, support speaker opportunities, and drive pre/post-event outreach.
  

• Develop clear messaging and positioning that speaks to defence stakeholders, primes, partners, and government buyers.
  

• Collaborate with Sales and BD teams to support ABM, bid/tender efforts, and targeted growth in priority segments.
  

• Establish and track marketing KPIs (e.g., MQLs, CAC, CTRs, ROI), and continuously optimise performance against targets.
  

• Lead and develop the team of high performing marketing professionals.
  

• Own and manage the marketing budget and key agency/supplier relationships.

• Contribute to investor, partner, and executive communications as needed.

• Strong track record of building and managing marketing teams with a focus on coaching, performance, and culture.
  

• Demonstrated ability to build campaigns that directly contribute to pipeline and revenue growth.
  

• Full-stack marketing capability: from strategic planning to hands-on execution across digital, content, events, and communications.

• Excellent written, visual, and verbal communication skills.
