Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Executive Impact and Demonstrating Marketing Value : Build and lead the framework that articulates the strategic and commercial value of marketing to executive stakeholders. Connect marketing programs not only to pipeline generation, but to full-funnel velocity, deal acceleration, account progression and overall revenue contribution.
  • Actionable Insights over Reports : Deliver the interpretive layer that turns performance data into business decisions.

Track plan performance across fiscal cycles, evaluate ROI across segments and motions and provide actionable reallocation recommendations to the leadership team to maximize return on spend.
  • Silo Elimination and Cross-Functional Speed : Redesign fragmented, multi-step handoffs between functions. Implement best practices, tools and AI capabilities to replace disconnected, multi-ticket intake processes with unified, streamlined campaign workflows that cut turnaround times while maintaining high quality.
  • Applied AI Enablement : Drive practical AI adoption across the marketing organization. Identify repetitive administrative bottlenecks and train marketing team members to leverage our AI tools and native capabilities in our platforms to accelerate marketing deliverables, develop deeper insights and empower self-service execution.
