Job Summary

Drive Intercom\'s field-focused product marketing, owning messaging, play systems, and competitive strategy across GTM to fuel multi-stakeholder deals.

  • Own the field narratives and play messaging, collaborating with IM, Campaigns, and Enablement.
  • 7+ years in product/solutions marketing with end-to-end competitive strategy in B2B SaaS.
  • Build scalable assets (battle cards, plays) and ensure multi-stakeholder buyer messaging.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Own the narratives the field uses in market: purpose-built for how buyers evaluate and buy, not a watered-down message doc
  • Co-create campaign approaches with Integrated Marketing and Campaigns: you own the messaging and narrative, they own channel strategy and execution
  • Partner with Sales Enablement to raise the bar on how the field sells our product and platform, from launch narrative through to role-specific assets and training
  • Identify gaps in field knowledge and confidence through data, call reviews, and rep conversations, and find ways to close them
  • Work with GTM strategy and commercial teams to identify growth opportunities : cross-sell, upsell, new places to sell existing products : and co-define play strategy grounded in white space analysis and buyer insight
  • Own the messaging for each play; work with GTM Programs, Campaigns, and Enablement to develop the content and assets that bring it to life
  • Test whether messaging is working - through field feedback, conversion signals, and rep confidence - and iterate quickly
  • Build solutions-level messaging that goes beyond individual products to articulate the broader value of Intercom when capabilities work together
  • Own how we navigate multiple buyer personas - ensuring each has a narrative that speaks to their priorities without fragmenting the overall message
  • Create frameworks that give reps a sharper way into multi-stakeholder deals, flexing across personas without losing the platform story
  • Continuously identify where we\'re winning and where there\'s untapped opportunity - build the positioning, narrative, and campaigns to shape those opportunities
  • Work with Research and GTM teams to run a sustainable competitive intelligence program - tracking moves, updating positioning, and keeping the field current without creating noise
  • Operationalise competitive strategy so the field can act on it: battle cards, competitive plays, and objection handling
  • Synthesise win/loss data, customer interviews, and market signals into strategic recommendations that feed back into product and ICP decisions

Requirements

  • 7+ years in product marketing, solutions marketing, or competitive intelligence at a B2B SaaS company
  • You’ve owned competitive strategy end-to-end - not just battle cards, but how a company positions itself against a moving market
  • You’ve built field and campaign narratives that landed and can speak to what worked, what didn’t, and why
  • You’ve operated where product ships faster than messaging can keep up, and found a way to move at that pace without losing quality
  • Strong editorial judgment - you know the difference between sharp positioning and marketing language that means nothing
  • You can write for a VP of CX and a sales rep in the same week and know exactly how the message needs to shift
  • You push back on vague claims and force specificity - in your own work and in others\'
  • You don’t hand off strategy, you take it all the way to execution
  • Comfortable in a room with sales leadership discussing why we’re losing deals, and equally comfortable writing the battle card that fixes it
  • A systems thinker - you build frameworks others can use, not just one-off assets
  • You understand and are keen to learn about the technical differentiation of AI across the stack - model, app and infrastructure layers
  • You have a POV on where the AI customer service market is going, not just where it is
  • You use AI tools fluently in your own work
