  • Elevate brand presence and thought leadership positioning in Australia and future markets (SEA and UK).

Key Requirements
  • Proven experience in marketing leadership with a strong track record in demand generation and pipeline growth.
  • Background in B2B SaaS or edtech (essential).
  • Demonstrated success in building or scaling marketing teams.
  • Strong analytical mindset with proficiency in marketing automation, CRM, and analytics tools.
  • Excellent brand storytelling and market positioning skills.

What's on Offer
  • A rare opportunity to establish and scale a marketing function in a fast-growing edtech business.
  • A mission-driven organisation with a genuine impact on the future of learning.
  • Competitive salary with the potential for equity participation.
