Head of Marketing – Automation

Role Overview

• Social Media Oversight & Production Alignment:
• We have a social media team. What we don't always have is tight connective tissue between what they publish and what's actually happening across the business. That's what this role fixes.
• Ensure social content reflects real production capacity and upcoming milestones
• Own the connection between production updates and what goes public, nothing falls through the gap
• Coordinate directly with clients on material approvals and IP permissions
• Enforce a zero-tolerance standard on publishing anything not properly cleared
• Keep sales informed and ensure marketing is actively supporting capacity visibility
• AI & Automation:
• This is the core of how we expect marketing to evolve. Not a project. Not a pilot. A permanent shift in how the team operates.
• Design and deploy AI-powered workflows — n8n, Make, or equivalent
• Automate content repurposing across podcast, social, email, and blog
• Build dashboards that give leadership real-time visibility without manual reporting
• Automate production-to-marketing handoffs and client approval tracking
• Systematically identify and eliminate manual processes from the marketing function
• Team Leadership & Accountability:
• You will lead a team of experienced marketing professionals and take full ownership of how they deliver. The founder should never have to chase an update or wonder what the team is working on.
• Set clear priorities, run tight delivery cadences, and hold the team to them
• Provide weekly reporting to the founder — short, clear, numbers-driven
• Manage contractors, agencies, and external vendors
• Oversee website, brand assets, decks, client materials, and merch
• Oversee community management in coordination with community leads
• Manage onboarding for new team members and contractors
• Devoted Speakeasy Podcast:
• Devoted Speakeasy is one of the industry's most respected voices in GameDev. It has a loyal audience and a strong identity. Your job is to protect that and keep it sharp, not to turn it into a marketing funnel.
• Maintain editorial quality and brand consistency
• Oversee guest pipeline and production cadence
• Ensure podcast content gets properly amplified across other channels
• Keep the tone and positioning true to what makes Speakeasy worth listening to
• Brand & Strategic Direction:
• Across everything, social, podcast, website, events, client materials, you are the guardian of the Devoted brand. High quality, consistent voice, and a clear sense of where we're going.
• Evolve brand positioning in line with business growth
• Maintain quality standards across all external-facing touchpoints
• Support conference presence, merch, and partnership materials
• Contribute strategic thinking on where marketing can create real business impact

Requirements

• 10+ years in marketing, with meaningful time leading teams
• You've worked closely with founders or senior leadership as a true business partner
• Strong brand instinct, you know what's on-brand, what isn't, and why it matters
• Highly structured and delivery-focused without being bureaucratic
• Comfortable being direct, with your team, with clients, with leadership
• Deep hands-on experience with AI and automation tools (n8n preferred)
• Solid grasp of analytics, dashboards, and performance reporting
