About us

At Rocket SaaS, we’re redefining what a B2B marketing agency should be. We partner with ambitious SaaS companies as an extension of their team, building end-to-end demand generation strategies that drive predictable growth. We value curiosity over convention, ownership over process, and collaboration over silos. Nothing is off the table if it helps our clients grow. You’ll have the freedom to test ideas, shape strategy and work alongside talented specialists who genuinely care about doing great work.

Since launching, we’ve become one of the UK’s fastest-growing SaaS marketing agencies. We’ve grown organically through client referrals, long-term partnerships and a reputation for delivering measurable results. If you’re looking for a role where your ideas will shape strategy, your work will have a measurable impact, and you’ll help shape the growth of some of the most exciting SaaS companies, we’d love to hear from you.

The role

We're looking for a Director of Strategy to act as the senior strategic voice across our client portfolio. You'll partner with Account Directors who need strategic input for their clients, and take a hands-on role shaping strategy for our largest accounts. In parallel, you'll help drive Rocket SaaS's own marketing growth, applying the same thinking to our business that we apply to our clients'.

This is a senior, high-visibility role for someone who can move fluently between content, performance, and CRO, and translate that into commercial strategy both for clients and for us.

What you'll do

• Act as strategic consultant across the client portfolio, supporting Account Directors on strategy for their accounts
• Take direct ownership of strategy for our largest and highest-complexity clients
• Set and guide strategy across four core disciplines: demand generation, content marketing, performance marketing, and website CRO
• Identify gaps or risks in client strategy before they become account problems
• Support and mentor Account Directors in strategic thinking, not just execution
• Lead strategy for Rocket SaaS's own marketing, driving our growth across the same channels
• Contribute to positioning, messaging, and go-to-market decisions as we scale
• Work closely with leadership on wider agency growth priorities

What we're looking for

• Proven track record building and delivering marketing strategy for B2B SaaS companies
• Strong grounding across demand gen, content marketing, performance marketing, and CRO, able to go deep in each, not just direct from a distance
• Experience advising senior stakeholders (client-side or internal) on strategic direction, not just delivering campaigns
• Supporting other strategists/account leads rather than only running your own accounts
• Strong commercial instincts, able to connect marketing activity to pipeline, revenue, and growth outcomes
• Excellent communication skills, able to challenge and influence senior stakeholders confidently
• Experience working across multiple accounts/clients simultaneously, prioritising ruthlessly

Nice to have

• Experience in an agency environment supporting multiple SaaS clients concurrently
• Familiarity with AI-driven marketing tools/workflows given our growing use of AI internally
• Experience contributing to a company's own internal marketing/growth function, not just client work

Why you’ll love it at Rocket SaaS

• Salary: £85,000 per annum, plus bonuses
• London 2 days p/w would be the preference, but we would be open to a remote position for the right candidate
• Quarterly parties
• Monthly virtual team events and a monthly quiz with cash prizes
• Career growth opportunities as we scale aggressively
• Real seat at the table shaping strategy for both clients and the agency itself
