  • Build and manage operating rhythms, dashboards, and analytics to inform leadership

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Drive annual and quarterly planning alongside the rest of the strategy and operations team, turning company and marketing strategy into clear plans with owners, timelines, and budgets
  • Project-manage high-stakes, high-visibility projects from start to finish, keeping many moving parts and busy senior leaders aligned and on schedule
  • Quarterback complex, cross-org special projects, pulling in the right people, setting the plan, and driving to the finish even when no single team owns the work
  • Partner on budget planning, forecasting, and management across marketing teams, making sure spend maps to the highest-priority work
  • Help build the operating rhythm the marketing org runs on, including how teams plan, prioritize, track progress, and report results, designed to scale as we grow
  • Build analytics and reporting that show how marketing is performing and give leaders the insight to make sharper calls
  • Drive cross-functional programs across Marketing, Finance, Legal, Creative Studio, and agency partners, keeping fast-moving work coordinated and unblocked
  • Partner with marketing leadership and Finance on resource and headcount planning, building the trust to influence without owning the teams directly
  • Find friction and remove it, so teams can move faster and focus on the work only they can do
  • Help define the metrics and measurement that tell us whether our marketing investments are working

Requirements

  • Marketing operations or strategy, business operations experience supporting the Marketing organization, working in high-growth B2B tech companies or strong technology-driven consumer brands
  • Strong project management instincts, with a track record of steering high-stakes, high-visibility projects and keeping many moving parts and busy senior leaders aligned
  • A history of seeing around corners, anticipating what a fast-scaling team will need before it becomes a problem and getting ahead of it
  • Proven ability to turn ambiguous, theoretical strategy into actionable plans, and to rally people across an org to execute quickly
  • Deep experience building and scaling operating processes from scratch in fast-paced, ambiguous environments
  • Strong analytical and financial chops, with hands-on experience in budgeting, forecasting, and annual planning
  • The ability to navigate a complex organization, build influence without authority, and manage relationships with senior leaders across Marketing, Finance, and the wider company
  • Comfortable operating with little direction and driving outcomes end to end, and equally comfortable dividing and conquering as part of a team rather than being the sole owner of everything you touch
  • Fluency with marketing technology and project management tools

Preferred

  • 10+ years in marketing operations, strategy, business operations, or a related field
  • Familiarity with marketing measurement and attribution methods
  • A background spanning more than one marketing discipline, such as brand and performance, or enterprise and product
