Marketing Funnel & Demand Generation Specialist (Contract)
The energy transition needs safer decisions. We train the people who make them. Now we need someone to make sure the world knows we exist.
Build a marketing engine for an industry that keeps people alive. Full autonomy. Real mission. North West base. £50 - 60k · 3-month fixed term initially.
This is a builder role, not a maintenance role.
ARMSA Academy provides specialist safety and operations training for the renewable energy sector: wind, solar, and battery energy storage. We have operated for over two decades and hold an established reputation with developers, asset owners, OEMs, and O&M contractors across the UK and Europe
We have a strong reputation, credible thought leadership content, and a growing pipeline of prospects. What we do not yet have is a structured inbound engine that consistently converts market interest into sales conversations. That is what this role exists to create: from the ground up, with a clear brief and real autonomy to execute it.
You will inherit existing marketing assets, a contact database, and Mailchimp as your core platform. Your job is to turn those raw materials into functioning funnels, automated nurture sequences, and a segmented audience structure that generates measurable lead growth.

Our Values · Behaviours, not slogans
We have defined our values as specific behaviours we hold ourselves to account on. Not aspirations on a wall.
01 · Self-Awareness
We question our own work, approach every challenge with a beginner’s mind, acknowledge the limits of our competence, and share our thinking openly, including when we get things wrong.
02 · Principled Leadership
We give people the "why" behind decisions, have difficult conversations rather than avoiding them, anchor our choices in evidence, and change course when the evidence changes.
03 · Nurturing Human Potential
We coach without judgement, create space for collective wisdom, celebrate progress, and build an environment where people feel safe to contribute fully.
04 · Decision Competence
We communicate our strategic rationale, question underlying assumptions, seek input from those affected, and test ideas through focused experiments rather than assumption alone.
How we measure success
Growth in Marketing Qualified Leads (MQL)
Growth in Sales Qualified Leads (SQL)
Email engagement rates: open, click, reply
Funnel conversion metrics
Sales conversations generated from marketing activity
If it goes well
This is an initial 3-month fixed-term contract. If the engagement successfully establishes a functioning marketing engine and demonstrates measurable traction, the role may extend or evolve into a permanent position as Marketing Manager, Demand Generation Lead, or Head of Marketing.
If you believe that safety and performance are two sides of the same coin and that your work can contribute to a safer, greener world, we would love to hear from you.
