CRM & Email Marketing Lead

Location: Exeter, Devon

This role is based at our Exeter office, with the option to work from home one day per week. In-person collaboration is important to how we work, particularly around key campaigns, events and moments across the Blue Earth calendar.

About Blue Earth

Blue Earth is a global platform built to accelerate a better future for people and planet.

Across the Blue Earth Summit, Forums, Sessions, BE100, London Climate Action Week activations, New York Climate Week, and our year-round Ventures and content programmes, we bring together founders, investors, policymakers, creatives and leaders shaping the future economy.

We believe that solutions to the world's biggest challenges already exist, they simply need to radically outcompete. Our role is to find them, fund them, and help them scale through connection, storytelling and investment.

The Opportunity

We are looking for a CRM & Email Marketing Lead to take full ownership of our CRM ecosystem (HubSpot) and play a central role in how Blue Earth grows, understands and engages its audience.

This is not a "send the newsletter" role.

You will own data strategy, segmentation, lifecycle journeys and email performance across a complex, multi-product platform, shaping how we build long-term relationships with founders, investors, partners and attendees across the entire Blue Earth calendar.

Working with the Head of Marketing, you'll be the internal expert on audience intelligence, working closely with marketing, partnerships, production and ventures to ensure every communication is relevant, timely and valuable.

Who We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who is naturally curious, about people, systems, data and what the future could look like if we build it differently.

You'll thrive at Blue Earth if you're excited by working in a small, highly agile and fast-paced team, where ownership matters, ideas move quickly, and impact is tangible. This is not a role for someone who needs heavy process or narrow remits, it's for someone who enjoys building, testing, learning and improving in real time.

You have a deep interest in what a better future looks like, for people, for the planet and for the systems that shape our economy. You don't just believe change is necessary, you're motivated by being part of the solution.

We're building a company that genuinely aims to transform the way the world works, bringing together innovation, investment and leadership to help the best solutions radically outcompete. That requires people who are optimistic, thoughtful and action-oriented.

In practice, this means you are likely to:

• Ask why as often as how.
• Care deeply about the quality and integrity of your work.
• Feel comfortable taking ownership and responsibility.
• Enjoy collaborating across disciplines and products.
• Be energised by complexity rather than overwhelmed by it.
• Want your skills to contribute to something that truly matters.

If you're looking for a role where data, creativity and purpose intersect, and where your work directly shapes how a global platform grows and connects its audience, you'll feel at home here.
