  • Identify speaking, contributed-content, media, and industry-participation opportunities for executives and subject-matter experts.
  • Establish a metrics-driven marketing operating model measuring awareness, engagement, marketing-sourced and marketing-influenced pipeline, conversion rates, customer acquisition cost, campaign ROI, pipeline velocity, and revenue contribution.
  • Build and maintain reliable dashboards and executive reporting that communicate marketing performance, insights, risks, and recommended actions.
  • Manage marketing technology, data hygiene, attribution, campaign operations, and budget discipline with Revenue Operations and other stakeholders.
  • Evaluate and optimize the marketing technology stack, vendors, agencies, freelancers, and internal resources for efficient execution.
  • Hire, develop, coach, and retain a high-performing marketing team as the organization grows.
  • Foster a collaborative, accountable, customer-centric culture focused on speed, quality, experimentation, commercial impact, and continuous improvement.
