Job Summary

Own and streamline marketing operations by turning problems into actionable requests, building tools, and running processes across planning, campaigns, and reporting to drive faster, error-free execution.

  • Define problem statements and scope
  • Own planning cadences and quarterly goals
  • Build and maintain a measurement framework

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Turn the team's problems into clear requests for product and engineering, get them prioritized, and follow them through to launch
  • Build smaller tools and automations yourself, and remove manual work
  • Build and run the systems and processes that support our campaign calendar, QA and documentation, and weekly reporting, so the team moves faster and makes fewer errors
  • Act as a "go-to" resource for a wide range of requests related to improving processes across the team
  • Make it easier for clients to approve marketing campaigns and for the team to handle customization requests
  • Own weekly reporting across channels and accounts, so anyone on the team can see how campaigns are doing without asking
  • Own the team's annual and quarterly planning process: setting the cadence, keeping goals current, and holding the team accountable to them
  • Help set data standards across campaigns, including naming conventions and tagging, so performance is comparable across campaigns instead of every campaign getting analyzed its own way
  • Identify and understand gaps in existing processes and tools, and implement fixes
  • Own the contracts and budget for the marketing tech stack, tracking renewals, evaluating new tools, and working with finance on forecasting

Requirements

  • Experience in marketing operations, product operations, technical program or product management, strategy and operations, or business operations, working independently without dedicated analyst support
  • The ability to deeply understand a messy problem and translate it into a clear written request: what's wrong, who's affected, what done looks like, and what's out of scope
  • A working understanding of how engineers build, enough to scope a request, ask good questions, and know when to build something yourself and when to ask for help
  • Have built operating cadences, planning processes, or business reviews from scratch in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment
  • Have built or owned a measurement framework from scratch, not just reported metrics someone else defined
  • Experience using AI to make your own or a team's work measurably faster, and the judgment to check what it produces and when it isn’t the solution
  • Are fluent with spreadsheets, business intelligence dashboards, and project management softwares
  • A bias toward action: you don't need a lot of direction to get moving, and you see systems, not just tasks, instinctively working to improve them

Preferred

  • Time at high-growth technology companies
  • Familiarity with pipeline measurement, marketing attribution, and lead funnel operations
  • Working knowledge of SQL or business intelligence tooling
  • Hands-on experience building in Braze, including custom attributes and campaign QA.
  • Experience with Asana and Airtable, specifically using them to manage campaign intake and tracking
  • Experience in an internal Product Management role
  • Experience redesigning how a team communicates, such as meeting structure or information flow
  • Healthcare, benefits, or other regulated-industry marketing experience

Benefits

  • Competitive salary
  • ✨ Comprehensive medical, dental, vision, life, and disability benefits
  • 401k match
  • Monthly phone and wifi stipend for employees, annual ergonomic stipend
  • Generous vacation policy, paid holidays and company-wide recharge days
  • Equal paid parental leave for birthing and non-birthing parents
  • Free cancer screening and prevention resources for employees and their adult dependents
