Your mission

At sevdesk, we’re building Germany’s most loved accounting platform for the self-employed and microbusinesses. As our new Head of Brand Marketing you’ll take the lead in shaping a distinctive, credible, and widely known brand across Germany and Austria.

You’ll be responsible for both brand marketing and external communications — ensuring sevdesk is top-of-mind for founders and freelancers, respected by the press and ecosystem, and clearly differentiated from a growing list of competitors. In this highly cross-functional leadership role, you’ll manage a talented team, steer key agencies, and work closely with Brand Design, Demand Gen, and Cegid Brand & Comms to drive long-term brand equity and short-term business impact.

Here's how you'll make an impact:

1. Define and evolve the sevdesk brand strategy — including positioning, messaging, and tone.
2. Own brand campaigns from brief to execution, working cross-functionally and with agencies to deliver standout creative across digital, social, and offline.
3. Lead our PR and external communications, building strong media relationships and driving thought leadership that amplifies our voice in Germany and beyond.
4. Build and develop a high-performing team across brand, comms, social, and events — and lead agency relationships to scale our impact.
5. Drive brand investment strategy, balancing proven channels (e.g. paid social, influencer, content) with new experiments and creative formats.
6. Connect brand to business impact — partner with Demand Gen, Product, and Marketing Ops to track brand health and influence on acquisition and retention.

Your qualification

• 10+ years of experience in brand marketing and/or communications, with at least 4 years in a leadership role.
• Background in fast-paced tech, SaaS, or consumer-facing businesses — ideally product- or marketing-led environments with no sales org.

• Demonstrated ability to lead cross-functional brand initiatives from concept to execution.
