Role Overview:

The Senior Marketing Manager EU is an individual contributor responsible for driving downstream commercial marketing across key European markets, with a primary focus on the UK and Ireland, Germany, Austria, and broader EU expansion. Reporting to the VP, Global Marketing, this role will own the day-to-day execution of EU marketing strategy from messaging and content localisation through to lead generation, field enablement, and programme onboarding support.

This is a hands-on, high-ownership role suited to an ambitious marketer who thrives in a commercial-stage environment. You will work in close partnership with EU field colleagues, UK-based clinical and commercial teams, and global marketing leadership to build the commercial infrastructure that accelerates Phagenyx adoption across European hospital systems.

 

Key Responsibilities:

Messaging, Positioning & Content Localisation

• Adapt and localise the Phagenyx value proposition and messaging architecture for EU/UK audiences, ensuring resonance across key clinical stakeholders: neurologists, speech and language therapists (SLTs), stroke coordinators, intensivists, and hospital administrators.
• Develop EU-specific commercial content and collateral — including brochures, slide decks, clinical evidence summaries, and digital assets — that reflects local clinical practice, guideline language, and NHS/European health system context.
• Ensure all materials comply with EU/UK regulatory requirements, ABPI/ABHI codes of practice, and Phagenesis quality and legal review processes.
• Translate complex clinical evidence into compelling, accessible materials for both clinical and economic buyer audiences.
• Maintain brand consistency across all EU-facing touchpoints, applying translations and local market nuance throughout.

 

Lead Generation & Demand Creation

• Design and execute EU/UK demand generation programmes targeting NHS Trusts, stroke units, critical care departments, and neurology services to build a qualified pipeline of prospective Phagenyx sites.
• Develop and manage digital campaigns, congress activations, and peer-to-peer initiatives to drive awareness and inbound interest.
• Build account segmentation frameworks and target account lists in partnership with the EU field team to prioritise high-value NHS and European hospital accounts.
• Track and report on lead volume, source quality, and conversion metrics; optimise programmes based on performance data.
• Support symposia, webinars, and educational events targeted at EU/UK healthcare professionals.

 

Deal Velocity & Pipeline Acceleration

• Develop commercial tools designed to accelerate movement through the EU sales funnel — from clinical champion engagement through to Trust/hospital approval and first patient treatment.
• Build NHS-focused objection-handling resources, health economic models, and business case frameworks that address local commissioning pathways and budget holder priorities.
• Partner with EU Therapy Development Specialists to identify pipeline bottlenecks and develop targeted materials addressing clinical education, procurement support, or executive-facing business cases.
• Develop content supporting engagement with NHS commissioners, Integrated Care Boards (ICBs), and equivalent European payer/decision-making bodies.
• Maintain awareness of EU reimbursement landscapes and ensure commercial materials are aligned to local funding context.

 

Implementation, Onboarding & Programme Optimisation

• Develop and maintain EU/UK-specific onboarding and implementation resources supporting rapid, high-quality site activation — spanning programme initiation, clinical training materials, patient selection tools, and ongoing programme optimisation content.
• Adapt global site integration materials for NHS and European hospital environments, including UK (NBM) and IRE/EU (NPO) conventions and local FEES/DIGEST practice.
• Develop quarterly business review frameworks that help sites demonstrate programme impact and drive continued engagement.

 

Field Enablement & Sales Support

• Equip the EU field team with best-in-class sales enablement tools: pitch decks, clinical evidence summaries, competitive differentiation resources, and customer-facing leave-behinds tailored to European markets.
• Provide ongoing field support through content refreshes, new indication or study updates, and real-time responses to competitive or clinical questions.
• Support KOL engagement and advisory activities in collaboration with EU Medical/Clinical Affairs.
• Manage EU congress and conference presence — including stand logistics, symposium content, and follow-up materials.
• Maintain the EU/UK marketing calendar and align commercial programmes with key clinical events, guideline cycles, and product milestones.

 

Cross-functional Collaboration & Commercial Operations

• Work in close partnership with global marketing leadership to ensure EU programmes are aligned with overarching commercial strategy while remaining locally relevant.
• Collaborate with EU Medical/Clinical Affairs to ensure all commercial activity is evidence-based, compliant, and integrated with medical education initiatives.
• Monitor EU competitive landscape and contribute to competitive intelligence updates.
• Manage EU marketing budget responsibly; track spend against outcomes and report to VP, Global Marketing.
• Maintain all EU materials in compliance with ABPI/ABHI standards, MDR requirements, and Phagenesis quality systems.

 

Essential Experience:

• Bachelor’s degree required; MBA or postgraduate business qualification preferred.
• 5–8 years of downstream/commercial marketing experience in medical devices, medtech, or a related healthcare sector.
• Demonstrated experience developing commercial content, sales enablement tools, and demand generation programmes in the UK or European healthcare market.
• Solid understanding of the NHS structure, commissioning landscape, and hospital purchasing environment; familiarity with Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) and NICE processes advantageous.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English; experience working cross-functionally with field sales, clinical/medical affairs, and regulatory/legal teams.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office suite; experience with CRM platforms (e.g. Salesforce) and marketing tools (e.g. HubSpot or equivalent).
• Highly organised and self-directed; comfortable managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced, early-stage commercial environment.
• Willingness to travel approximately 25–35% across UK and EU markets (field rides, congresses, site visits, advisory boards).
• Right to work in the UK or Germany.

 

Desirable Experience:

• Experience in neurology, stroke, critical care, dysphagia, or a similarly complex, evidence-intensive therapeutic area.
• Familiarity with ABPI and/or ABHI codes of practice and EU medical device marketing compliance requirements.
• Background in launching or building market awareness for a novel or first-in-class device in the NHS or European markets.
• Experience supporting the development of health economic models, commissioning business cases, or working with NICE submissions.
• Start-up or early-commercial-stage company experience; comfort operating without a large marketing infrastructure.
• Additional European language skills (German, French, or Spanish) advantageous for broader EU market engagement.
• Familiarity with NHS procurement pathways, framework agreements, and tariff-based reimbursement (e.g. HRG codes).

 

Skills & Capabilities

• Strong commercial instinct with the ability to build content and programmes that drive tangible pipeline and revenue impact.
• Excellent written communication skills; proven ability to produce high-quality clinical and commercial content independently.
• Strong project management skills; able to juggle multiple workstreams, deadlines, and stakeholders without losing quality.
• Comfortable operating with autonomy in a resource-light environment while maintaining alignment with global leadership.
• Collaborative and credible with clinical and field-facing colleagues; able to earn trust quickly in a science-driven environment.
• Data-literate; able to interpret performance metrics and translate insight into programme decisions.
