Meet the New Roles AI Is Creating in Marketing

AI Is Creating a Whole New Kind of Marketer

AI is starting to reshape the way marketing teams work. Itā€™s changing the kinds of work we do, the skills we need, and how teams are structured. Some roles are evolving, others are being created from scratch. And while the job titles might sound a little futuristic, this shift is already well underway.

Letā€™s take a look at some of the roles that are emerging as AI becomes more deeply embedded in everyday marketing work.

One of the first to show up is the AI prompt manager. As more teams use LLMā€™s to write emails, ad copy, or even internal docs, someone has to figure out how to talk to the AI in a way that gets good results. That means writing clear, specific prompts, testing what works, and making sure the tone still feels on-brand. Itā€™s a mix of writing, editing, and a bit of trial and error, and it can make a big difference in what the model delivers.

That said, the longevity of this role is up for debate. As models get smarter and prompt interfaces improve, this could become less of a specialised function and more of a shared skill everyoneā€™s expected to have.

Then thereā€™s the AI trainer, who helps the model get smarter about your brand. This person feeds it the right examples - past campaigns, product details, tone-of-voice guides - all so the AI knows how to sound like you.

That means keeping the AIā€™s memory up to date and making sure itā€™s working with clean, accurate data and information. The quality of what you feed it directly impacts the quality of what you get back.

The AI marketing engineer is more behind-the-scenes, but just as important. Theyā€™re the ones hooking up different tools so content can move more smoothly from idea to execution. This might mean setting up automations, connecting platforms, or building lightweight systems to speed up workflows. Itā€™s a role thatā€™s becoming especially valuable for teams trying to scale AI use without adding unnecessary complexity.

Once content is out in the world, the AI performance analyst steps in. Their job is to look at what the AI is generating and figure out if itā€™s actually working. Are those AI-written subject lines getting clicks? Are the product descriptions driving conversions? They dig into the data to understand whatā€™s landing and whatā€™s not, then feed those insights back into the process to keep improving results.

Finally, thereā€™s the AI compliance manager, who keeps things aligned with evolving laws and policies. With new rules around data usage and AI transparency showing up in more regions, someone needs to track whatā€™s changing and make sure the teamā€™s tools and tactics stay compliant. This role is part risk management, part internal translator - making sense of legal language and applying it to real-world marketing decisions.

Most teams arenā€™t hiring for these roles as standalone jobs, at least not yet. But the responsibilities are already showing up, often handed to the people who raise their hand first or start experimenting early. As AI becomes more foundational to how marketing gets done, these functions will only grow.

AI CASE STUDY OF THE WEEK

What 10,000 Admin Staff Gained from Google Workspaceā€™s AI Tools at Woolworths

The Overview

Woolworths has rolled out generative AI across internal tools and customer-facing operations, helping teams write faster, create smarter promotions, and deliver more efficient support.

The Implementation

Over 10,000 admin employees now use the ā€œHelp me writeā€ feature inside Google Workspace tools like Gmail and Docs. The rollout was company-wide, but the key to adoption was keeping it simple. No separate training sessions or new tools to learnā€”just a quick walkthrough on how to get the most out of the built-in AI features. By embedding AI directly into workflows employees already use every day, Woolworths removed friction and drove faster uptake.

Employees now spend less time stressing over tone, grammar, or structure, and more time focused on clarity and action. Thatā€™s improved both speed and confidence in communication, especially when dealing with cross-functional teams or external partners.

Meanwhile, Gemini is helping the marketing team build more relevant, data-backed promotions based on customer behaviour. Campaigns are now faster to create and more likely to convert, helping Woolworths stay competitive in a crowded retail space.

On the customer service side, Gemini generates real-time summaries of a customerā€™s previous interactions, so agents arenā€™t starting cold. This means faster response times, more accurate answers, and a smoother overall experience for customers reaching out for help.

The Impact

Across departments, people are working smarter. Internal messages are sharper, promotions are more personalised, and support reps are better prepared.
