Marketing Lead UK – Aphex
Join to apply for the Marketing Lead UK role at Aphex.
About Aphex
Aphex is the construction planning platform that replaces outdated spreadsheets with multiplayer tools that delivery teams love. Major contractors like BAM, Balfour Beatty, SKANSKA, Kier, MACE, and Murphy use Aphex to deliver projects ranging from £50 million to multi‑billion pound megaprojects. Since launching in the UK in 2019, we’ve transformed how major contractors plan and build projects and expanded to Australia in 2022 to become the go‑to platform for infrastructure and building projects. We’re tackling an industry that drives 10% of global GDP yet has seen productivity decline for 20 years – it’s time for change.
The role
We’re hiring a regional marketing expert to establish what in‑person activation looks like for Aphex – how we show up in the market to spark conversations, connect with our ICP, and make our ideas about project delivery tangible. Based in the UK, this person will build and lead our events and community marketing presence, creating engaging experiences across major events, community‑driven meetups, and online formats. You’ll also help us champion our customers by celebrating their success, amplifying their stories, and building loyalty through advocacy and gifting programmes. This is a hands‑on role, ideal for someone who thrives in autonomy, enjoys building from the ground up, and wants to help define how Aphex connects with the construction industry. Expect hybrid and asynchronous work, with occasional early mornings or evenings to connect with the wider team and a regular rhythm of in‑person collaboration in our London office without a fixed schedule.
What You’ll Do
* Own how Aphex connects with customers in person – from flagship industry events to project‑level interactions.
* Lead event strategy and execution, building the playbook for our presence at major conferences and expos.
* Develop and host community‑led formats like fireside chats and roundtables.
* Test and scale online event formats that build community engagement.
* Design the frameworks for how we recognize, reward, and celebrate our customers.
* Build and manage VIP gifting, advocacy, and customer appreciation initiatives.
* Coordinate milestone celebrations, merchandise packs, and creative brand touchpoints that make Aphex tangible.
* Feed market insights directly into the global marketing engine.
* Share patterns, themes, and opportunities emerging from regional events and conversations.
* Provide insight that will help inform our ad targeting strategies, account‑based marketing, and positioning using first‑hand feedback from UK and European teams.
* Shape how Aphex approaches field marketing and community engagement globally.
* Create repeatable frameworks for events, gifting, and advocacy.
* Document what works in the UK and codify learnings.
* Collaborate with the wider marketing team to prepare for rollout into new geographies.
