Hiring: Marketing & Business Development
We’re looking for someone awesome to come help us shape the future of HMx Labs
Does a HPC Nerd have to be a techie? Or can you be an HPC nerd that does sales, or marketing or even HR? Anyone happen to know a HPC nerd that does marketing and business development type stuff by any chance? I’d quite like one on my team 😁
So, if you’re a little bit awesome and want to come work with us, give me a shout. Or if you know anyone that is, point them my way?
The Opportunity
HMx Labs is a specialist compute and data consultancy operating at the sharp end of High Performance Computing (HPC), cloud infrastructure, and enterprise data management. Our clients include some of the largest financial institutions and we partner the biggest technology companies in the world.
We're a small, expert team and we intend to stay that way. We don't chase funding rounds or maximise shareholder value. We do the right thing by our clients, our staff, and our partners. That independence is our edge, and it's what makes us genuinely trusted advisors to the organisations we work with.
This is a rare opportunity to join us as our first dedicated commercial hire. Whilst your primary focus will be on execution you’ll work closely with the senior leadership team and be mentored and learn from our fractional business and sales strategy experts.
What you’ll be doing
This is a broad role and the first of its kind in the company so you’ll be carrying a lot of responsibility but guided by the senior leadership team and fractional sales and marketing experts we have engaged. You’ll be responsible for:
- Building our sales and marketing function. This includes defining the CRM we use, the processes we follow, what our sales pipeline looks like and how and where we use AI in all of this.
- Leading all marketing and branding activity including our presence on social media, our content strategy and even in person events
- Working with our partners on technical collaboration as well as managing partner relations and opportunities for growth
- Feed insights back into the business, your conversations with clients and prospects will directly influence our product and service development. You'll have a real voice in what we build next.
- Help expand our client base and grow revenues.
Who we’re looking for
The role would ideally suit someone early in the career, that is self-motivated, extroverted and enjoys engaging with people and building relationships. You don’t need to be a software engineer, but you should have an interest in technology and ideally in supercomputing or data classification at enterprise scale.
You don’t need to have all of these but here’s our wish list:
- A background (a degree or previous experience working) in sales or marketing ideally with some exposure to this in technology or financial services
- The confidence to work autonomously and the judgement to know when to bring in others
- An interest in technology, some familiarity with the technology landscape and ideally within the supercomputing and enterprise data space
- An awareness of what B2B sales with large complex organisations looks like
- Some exposure to consultancy, especially niche or boutique consultancies.
Why join HMx Labs
If you enjoy working in an environment where every day is different, where your actions make a meaningful difference in the trajectory of the company, want exposure and an opportunity to learn from senior people in technology and finance not just within HMx Labs but the industry at large this is the job for you.
The role is best suited to someone early in their career looking for a step up in responsibility. We’ll provide you with
- The ability to have real impact and shape the company
- Access to senior leadership within the company and with our partners and clients
- A performance based bonus and equity in the company
- Training and support for you to grow your role and the company
