About the Role:

This is an exciting opportunity for an innovative B2B SaaS marketer to lead a team responsible for the development and execution of multi-touch demand gen programs that are key to the company’s revenue growth.

Candidate profile

  • Confident, passionate, and “lead by example” leader with a strong track record of establishing, developing, and retaining a high-performing and collaborative marketing team.
  • Strong, confident presence with the ability to partner with executives across the business to drive critical initiatives with a level-headed and persistent demeanor.
  • Strong track record of consistent career progression and increased responsibilities.
  • Comfortable in a nimble, fast-paced environment with an orientation of doing more with less.

Responsibilities:

  • Translate a strategic marketing plan into actionable quarterly targets and initiatives.
  • Partner with the Chief Revenue Officer to align ABM strategy with the sales team’s defined books of business.
  • Create and implement a performance-based demand generation strategy that utilizes content, digital, and drip campaigns.
