Interim Marketing Manager

Job description

Interim Marketing Manager
Contract / Part-time
East Cambridge | Hybrid | 2 days on site

Are you an experienced, generalist contract marketing looking for a fresh opportunity?

We’re working with a well-established, science-led technology business in the health and life sciences space that’s looking for an experienced marketing generalist to step in on an interim basis (6 months).

This is a hands-on role supporting a commercial team during a period of growth and change. It will suit someone who’s comfortable picking things up quickly, running with multiple workstreams, and keeping momentum going without a lot of hand-holding - you must have a self-start mentality and the confidence to succeed.

The role
You’ll act as the go-to person for day-to-day marketing activity, covering content, digital channels, website updates and events. It’s broad, practical, and delivery-focused rather than strategic theory.

Expect to work closely with sales, product and external suppliers, keeping everything moving while the wider marketing function evolves.

The day-to-day:
Content
  • Managing and producing B2B marketing content such as case studies, white papers, website copy and sales enablement materials
  • Making sure messaging is consistent, accurate and commercially useful
Social
  • Owning LinkedIn activity end-to-end
  • Building and managing a content calendar
  • Tracking engagement and performance
Website
  • Updating and maintaining website content
  • Working with an external web agency to get changes live quickly and correctly
Events
  • Managing a central calendar of conferences and events
  • Handling logistics, materials and coordination
  • Supporting webinars and other external-facing activity
Stakeholders
  • Acting as the main marketing contact for sales, business development and product
  • Managing agencies, freelancers and suppliers
  • Supporting onboarding of new marketing team members if needed
Ops
  • Handling inbound marketing requests
  • Keeping CRM and marketing activity records up to date

What you'll bring:
  • Solid B2B marketing experience (around 5+ years)
  • Strong understanding of long sales cycles and B2B funnels
  • Hands-on experience with HubSpot or similar CRM/automation tools
  • Confident updating websites using WordPress
  • Comfortable using Canva for social and basic design
  • Organised, self-directed and delivery-focused
  • Strong written communication

Sector experience is not a determining factor, however exposure to life sciences would be beneficial. If you’re a seasoned marketing generalist who enjoys stepping into fast-moving environments and keeping things running smoothly, this one’s worth a conversation.
