Role Type: High-Impact Individual ContributorTarget Experience: Former Top-Tier Management Consultants (McKinsey, Bain, BCG / MBB). Worked for or in Manufacturing.Travel: International travel required (~10%–15% to the US and Germany for key events, market immersion, and strategic sessions)

Are you currently an Engagement Manager, Project Leader, or Case Team Leader at an MBB firm who loves strategic problem-solving and wants to build and execute directly?This is not a traditional corporate marketing role, nor is it a high-level advisory role where you hand off execution to others. Reporting directly to the Chief Marketing Officer, you will lead segment marketing for our largest and most critical vertical across the United States and Germany.You will own strategy, message development, budget allocation, and full-funnel execution. With a direct line to executive leadership and targeted on-the-ground presence in key markets, this role offers immersive, multi-disciplinary exposure to every modern go-to-market lever, combining strategic ownership with hands-on execution.

Principal Responsibilities

- Strategic Ownership: Function as the single point of accountability for growth, positioning, and pipeline creation in the US and German manufacturing segments, reporting performance directly to the CMO.

- Budget & ROI: Define, allocate, and manage the segment marketing budget, optimizing for conversion rates, customer acquisition cost (CAC), and pipeline efficiency.

- Market & Buyer Intelligence: Develop deep expertise in manufacturing buyer personas, supply chain complexities, and direct spend procurement dynamics.

- Messaging, Positioning & Web Presence: Craft high-converting value propositions, differentiation frameworks, and campaign messaging tailored to manufacturing executives in the US and Germany. Directly write, update, and optimize website landing pages and web copy (supported by central web/design teams for publishing).

- Hands-On Campaign Execution & Field Presence: Events & Field Marketing: Evaluate, select, and manage presence at key US and European manufacturing industry events—including traveling on-site (~10%–15%) to represent JAGGAER and engage directly with prospects and customers. Email Campaigns: Strategy, copywriting, segmentation, and deployment of targeted email sequences. Webinars & Content: Conceptualize, script, host, and drive audience acquisition for high-value webinars. Paid Ads: Manage targeted digital ad campaigns across LinkedIn, search, and trade media.

While you will leverage central specialized resources (e.g., website managers pushing code live, creative design support), you retain full end-to-end ownership and accountability for execution.

Success in this Position:

- Strategic ownership for growth, positioning, and pipeline creation across the US and German manufacturing segments.

- Effective budget allocation and measurable ROI across full-funnel marketing activities.

- Strong market and buyer insight translated into compelling messaging and hands-on campaign execution.

Position Requirements

Must Have:

- Top-Tier Consulting Background: 3+ years at a top management consulting firm (McKinsey, Bain, BCG). You have proven problem-solving horsepower, business acumen, and structured analytical skills.

- Manufacturing Experience: Experience working for, with, or advising organizations in Manufacturing.

- Global Mobility: Willingness and ability to travel internationally (~10%–15%) to Germany and the United States for critical industry events, market immersion, team syncs, and field execution.

Nice to Have:

- Strategic & Operational Drive: Eager to trade high-level strategic advisory work for direct execution ownership and real operational impact.

- Exceptional Communication & Copywriting: Strong ability to translate complex software solutions into clear, compelling messaging for C-level executives.- Grit & Ownership Mindset: Highly autonomous self-starter who thrives on accountability and multi-disciplinary execution.
