Marketing, Manager

Description

We’re building a category — and we need a marketer who treats growth like a case to be solved. You’ll own the full demand generation engine: strategy, execution, performance, and reporting. You’ll have the support of an agency partner, but this role is the internal driver — the one who knows the numbers cold, asks the uncomfortable questions, and never settles for “it’s performing okay.”

This is a high-ownership, high-visibility role at a SaaS startup where your decisions show up in pipeline and revenue — not buried in a committee.

Demand   & Lead Generation

Design and scale   multi-channel programs across paid, organic, email, and social to drive   qualified pipeline. Own targets and be accountable to MQL, SQL, and pipeline   contribution metrics.

Prospect   Journey Mapping & Campaign Planning

Map the buyer journey   across personas and stages to inform how campaigns are structured, sequenced,   and measured. Translate journey insights into channel strategy, content   needs, and conversion logic — ensuring every campaign reflects how real   buyers actually move toward a decision.

Channel   Performance & Optimization

Dig into performance data   with a detective’s discipline. Identify what’s working, what’s wasting   budget, and what’s leaving opportunity uncaptured. Optimize ruthlessly across   creative, copy, targeting, and spend allocation.

Social   Media Management

Lead organic social   strategy and execution across LinkedIn and beyond. Build audience, drive   engagement, and connect social activity to pipeline outcomes — not just   follower counts.

Agency   Partnership & Direction

Serve as the primary   internal lead for our agency partner. Translate strategy into clear briefs,   hold the agency accountable to performance, and ensure outside execution   reflects our brand and goals.

Reporting   & Growth Intelligence

Build and maintain   dashboards that give leadership a clear picture of growth performance.   Present insights with clarity and point of view — no vanity metrics, no   hiding from hard numbers.

Signs you're a great fit: 

You’ve walked into a channel dashboard and felt genuinely unsettled by a metric no one else was questioning.

You’ve mapped a buyer journey and immediately saw three campaigns that needed to be rebuilt because of it.

You’ve built a demand gen program largely from scratch and have opinions about what you’d do differently the second time.

You’re equally comfortable in a strategy conversation and in the weeds of an ad set or email sequence.

You understand that in a startup, “it’s the agency’s job” is never a complete sentence. 

Requirements

5–8+ years in B2B SaaS growth or demand gen

With meaningful time in a startup or early-stage environment

Fluency in paid and organic channels

LinkedIn, Google, SEM, and   email nurture — and an opinion on all of them

Prospect journey & persona fluency

You’ve mapped buyer journeys and used them to actually change how campaigns are built and   sequenced

Data-first, never data-passive

You ask why a number looks the way it does, and you don’t stop until you have a real answer

Experience managing agency relationships

You can brief, direct, and push back — keeping partners aligned to outcomes

HubSpot or equivalent CRM/MAP experience

Comfortable in the stack;   bonus if you’ve administered it yourself
