What You Bring • Experience owning marketing for a B2B technology company, ideally in AI, enterprise software or a related field. • A track record of turning marketing activity into qualified sales opportunities. • Strong product marketing skills and the ability to explain technical products in clear business language. • Excellent English writing and editorial judgment. • Practical experience with content, campaigns, CRM tools and marketing analytics. • The ability to prioritize, manage budgets and deliver with a small team. • Confidence working directly with founders, technical experts and enterprise sales teams. • Experience in the Middle East region, enterprise buying cycles and partner marketing would be an advantage. What Success Looks Like A clear market position, stronger sales materials and a repeatable marketing process that creates qualified demand. You'll be measured on the quality of opportunities generated, campaign performance and marketing's contribution to business growth. Show more Show less
