Job Summary

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Own the marketing organization's highest-priority cross-functional initiatives — scoped with the Chief Growth Officer, then run by you — the projects too multidisciplinary or consequential to sit inside a single function.
  • Own communication and reporting of overall growth function performance to executive, cross-functional, and team function leaders.
  • Own large-scale transformation projects end-to-end, from problem definition through implementation and adoption.
  • Structure undefined, messy problems into clear plans, workstreams, timelines, and owners — and drive them to completion.
  • Translate Marketing leadership's strategic priorities into concrete operating plans, targets, and scorecards, and own tracking progress against them over time.
  • Build and run the operating rhythm for the marketing organization — planning cycles, leadership reviews, and the decision forums that go with them — so the team operates against real targets and a real calendar.
  • Lead Marketing's role in company-level strategic efforts — the go-to-market for new AI and agentic product capabilities, our analytics investment, and Marketing's contribution to our largest enterprise and AI-partner pitches. You'll carry these with the authority to decide, not just to report back.
  • Partner with functional leads to evaluate and strengthen the team's capabilities and areas for improvement.
  • Build the materials and narratives for executive- and leadership-level conversations, translating complex initiatives into clear, decision-ready updates.
  • Serve as a trusted thought partner to marketing leadership on prioritization, resourcing, and organizational design decisions.

Requirements

  • 8+ years of experience spanning product marketing, growth, or business/marketing operations and strategy, ideally including time at a high-growth SaaS, data, or technology company.
  • A track record of owning large-scale, cross-functional transformation projects from ambiguity through execution.
  • Comfortable operating without a fixed functional lane — genuinely energized by moving between strategy, analytics, and hands-on execution as priorities shift.
  • A systems thinker who can diagnose broken or informal processes and redesign them to scale.
  • Strong judgment operating with significant autonomy; exercises wide latitude in determining the right approach to critical, undefined assignments.
  • Experience operating as a close, trusted partner to a senior leader on strategic initiatives.
  • Experience building or running planning cycles, operating cadences, or scorecards for a leadership team, and comfort acting as a proxy for senior leadership in certain settings.
  • Strong analytical fluency and comfort getting into the data to inform recommendations.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to flex between detailed execution and clear, executive-level narrative.
  • Genuine curiosity about applying AI to marketing and operations, with an interest in evaluating and rolling out new tools and agentic capabilities.

Preferred

  • Depth in B2B product marketing, data or licensing go-to-market, or enterprise growth is a strong plus — several of the first projects sit squarely in that territory.
