Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Own Nectar's demand generation strategy and influence sales pipeline, from channel mix and budget allocation to forecasting and reporting to leadership

  • Track record launching and scaling paid campaigns across LinkedIn, Google, Meta, YouTube, TikTok, and X
  • Proficiency with marketing automation, email, A/B testing, and personalization tools, plus Salesforce, Google Analytics, and more
  • Experience building a function at an early-stage company, with the judgment to operate independently and drive complex cross-functional projects to completion

Preferred
