Marketing Technology & Growth Consultant

At Columbia Road, we believe that marketing and sales should be a joint effort. Marketing is not an add-on, it’s at the core of digital sales and business growth. As a Marketing Technology & Growth consultant, you will have a key role in helping our customers grow their businesses.

In practice, your client work can consist of e.g:

– Being a trusted advisor for your clients in defining digital sales and marketing strategies and turning them into concrete actions
– Helping your client develop and put into action new operative models, such as an experiment/growth hacking culture
– Designing your client’s marketing technology architecture and creating a roadmap for its implementation
– Finding the best technical solution for your client’s customer data needs
– Turning complex customer data into business insights and value
– Acting as a business or growth owner with hands-on implementation and operation of MarTech solutions
– Recognizing customer needs and business cases for digital service or technology development

You’ll work in cross-competence teams consisting of client stakeholders, your Roadie colleagues and potential third party experts. In some instances you may also work independently with a client, but never without the support of our community.

Working right at the heart of solving business challenges will offer you extensive learning opportunities that will broaden your understanding of customer needs and business problems in various industries. You get to work with ambitious clients from various industries and help them on their digital sales transformation journey, building long term client relationships in the process. You’ll also have the opportunity to share your knowledge with other Roadies as a mentor or simply by hosting lessons learned sessions.

All client teams have wide latitude to choose the best tools and ways of working for themselves and the people in the client organisation. This also means that as Roadies, we are flexible with our roles, jumping effortlessly from C-level budgeting discussions to creating customer activation campaigns. Above all, we are people with a can-do attitude and endless curiosity for helping our clients #sellbetter.
