Senior Director, Global Marketing

Duetto Research

About The Position

This is a pivotal role in Duetto’s restructured marketing team — one built for where marketing is going, not where it has been. As we evolve our model to move faster, operate smarter, and deliver results that outpace our size, this Senior Director will be central to making that happen. If you want to be part of building something genuinely different in B2B marketing, this is that opportunity. As Senior Director, Global Marketing, you will own the strategy and execution across field marketing, events, partner marketing, and customer marketing - four functions that collectively carry significant pipeline and revenue targets. Reporting to the CMO, you will sit on the marketing leadership team alongside the VP of Growth Marketing, and our Product Marketing Director, contributing actively to strategy, prioritisation, and cross-functional alignment. You will lead a talented, globally distributed team and work as a peer to sales, customer success, and product leaders, as well as engaging directly with the executive team on priorities and business-critical deliverables. This role is for a leader who is as comfortable in a commercial conversation as a creative one, who knows how to build high-performing teams across disciplines and geographies, and who brings genuine AI-first thinking to how they operate and scale a marketing function.

Requirements

10+ years in B2B marketing with significant senior leadership experience spanning multiple disciplines
Strong track record of owning commercial targets - pipeline, ARR, and revenue contribution. A genuinely commercial leader - you understand how marketing investment connects to pipeline, revenue, and retention, and you manage your team accordingly
Experience operating in a VC or private equity-backed environment, ideally having navigated a growth journey in the $50M–$200M ARR range
Proven ability to lead distributed, multi-disciplinary teams across geographies and time zones
Strategic thinker who can set direction and drive execution without losing either
Strong analytical instincts — comfortable with data, attribution, and making decisions under uncertainty
An excellent communicator - clear, credible, and confident whether presenting to your team, cross-functional peers, or the executive team
A natural collaborator who builds strong working relationships across sales, customer success, product, and the broader business
A leader who takes genuine ownership of targets, of team development, of outcomes
Calm and effective in fast-moving, high-growth environments where priorities shift and pace is relentless
Bias for action: Despite the seniority of this role, we are looking for someone who leads through doing. Strategic thinking matters, but so does the willingness to roll up your sleeves, get into the details, and support your team in the work. We expect this person to traverse altitudes comfortably - moving between high-level executive conversations and hands-on tactical work without losing effectiveness at either end. A bias to action over ideation, and a track record of making things happen, are as important to us as strategic vision.
AI-first mindset: you think about AI not as a tool to experiment with but as a structural part of how a modern marketing team should operate. You have experience embedding AI-enabled workflows into team processes to drive speed, quality, and scale. You actively seek out ways to achieve outsized results without proportional headcount growth
