Responsibilities

• Serve as Portside's senior-most marketing leader, setting overall marketing strategy and priorities in partnership with the CEO (transitioning to the CRO) and executive team.
• Assess the current state of marketing and build a function from a three-person base, closing gaps in strategy, structure, and execution.
• Hire and build out the marketing team — additional demand generation, content/brand, and marketing operations roles — prioritized against pipeline impact and budget.
• Introduce the systems, reporting, and rigor of a mature marketing organization, including clear goal-setting, attribution, and performance tracking.
• Build and execute multi-channel demand generation programs to drive qualified pipeline.
• Own Portside's brand positioning, voice, and visual identity across all channels.
• Manage the corporate website, ensuring messaging is current, compelling, and conversion-focused.
• Lead PR, analyst relations, and industry event strategy, including conference presence and sponsorships.
• Own marketing-sourced and marketing-influenced pipeline targets and report on performance to the executive team.
• Partner with Sales leadership to align marketing programs with revenue goals and target account strategies.

Requirements

• 8–10+ years of progressive marketing experience in B2B SaaS, including experience owning marketing broadly — brand, demand generation, and sales development — rather than a single specialty.
• Prior experience building or substantially scaling a marketing function at a small or early-stage company, with limited team and resources, and full autonomy over direction and priorities.
• Direct experience managing a BDR, SDR, or ISR team, including building playbooks and driving pipeline metrics.
• Comfortable moving fluidly between strategic planning and hands-on execution — writing copy, building a campaign, briefing a designer, running a webinar.
• Experience with CRM and marketing automation platforms (e.g., Salesforce, HubSpot, Marketo, Pardot).
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to represent marketing to the executive team and board.
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent work experience.
• Prior experience in aviation, aerospace, or a related industry (business aviation, airlines, or aircraft leasing & finance) is a plus, though not required for the right generalist operator.
