The Role and the Team

This is a 6-month fixed-term contract.

We're looking for a Head of Go-to-Market to build the sales and marketing engine that connects our members with local offers from independent businesses in their communities.

Youll be accountable for the full end-to-end GTM process for BLC Near Me: positioning, demand generation, sales execution, onboarding, lifecyclegrowth,and up-selling to paid listings, with a particular focus on connecting with and activating small local retailers.

Youll manage a small team and work closely with Product, Engineering, Data, and the wider BLC platform to ensure the proposition and tooling support scalable growth. The role requires someone who actively uses AI to research, personalise outreach, accelerate content and campaign iteration, and improve the quality and impact of outreach, while maintaining high standards for brand, compliance, and member trust.

What You'll Do

  • Own the end-to-end GTM strategy and execution for BLC Near Me, from positioning and messaging through to acquisition, activation, and merchant retention, with full accountability for the GTM budget

  • Design and launch a new sales motion for small local retailers: segmentation, lead sources, outreach cadences, pitch and objection handling, pricing and packaging inputs, and close playbooks

  • Own the launch of a Freemium listings model into the small local retailer channel, defining the proposition and go-to-market approach

  • Build the marketing engine with your Growth Marketing Manager, covering content and offer strategy, campaign planning, channel experimentation, and performance reporting

  • Specify and configure HubSpot to run the pipeline, including lifecycle and deal stages, automation, sequences, dashboards, forecasting, and data quality

  • Own funnel and revenue metrics including leads, conversion rates, CAC, activation, retention, and unit economics, driving a weekly operating rhythm to improve them

  • Oversee lifecycle growth with your Customer Success Manager: merchant onboarding, comms, renewal and retention motions, and feedback loops that inform product and proposition

  • Partner with Engineering and Data to reduce friction in the onboarding and conversion experience for both merchants and members

What You'll Bring

  • Extensive experience leading go-to-market functions (sales and marketing combined) with clear revenue accountability, ideally in an early-stage or low-maturity environment where you created the playbook rather than inherited one

  • A strong track record selling to small local retailers or local SMEs, including building repeatable inbound and outbound acquisition motions in high-volume, relationship-led contexts

  • Setting upsalesCRMcapability:specifying howHubSpot(or similar)should be usedfor pipeline stages, automation, reporting, forecasting, and team adoption

  • Growth marketing capability across channel testing, messaging and creative iteration, experimentation, and performance measurement

  • Commercial sharpness, you think in terms of unit economics, payback, and scalable levers, and are comfortable owning revenue metrics across the full funnel

  • Experience managing and developing a small team with clear goals and an operating cadence that balances pace with quality

  • A demonstrable, opinionated approach to AI in your own GTM workflow, with examples of how it has improved research, personalisation, content, or sales effectiveness

  • Experience in local commerce, marketplace, or membership and loyalty models would be a strong advantage, but is not essential
