  • 3. Sales & Marketing Alignment
    • Work closely with sales leadership to ensure marketing efforts align with pipeline targets and revenue goals.
    • Develop sales enablement materials (case studies, decks, battle cards, industry reports) to support the sales team in closing deals faster.
    • Optimize marketing-to-sales handoff processes, ensuring a seamless transition from MQL to SQL to closed deal.
  • 4. Customer Journey & Retention
    • Map and optimize the B2B customer journey to maximize engagement, conversion rates, and retention.
    • Develop lifecycle marketing strategies to increase customer lifetime value (LTV) and reduce churn.
    • Leverage data and automation to drive personalized marketing at scale.
  • 5. Data-Driven Decision Making
    • Own and analyze key marketing performance metrics (CAC, LTV, SQL conversion rates, marketing-sourced revenue).
    • Use A/B testing, analytics, and attribution modeling to continuously improve marketing performance.
    • Implement marketing automation, CRM, and reporting tools to measure ROI effectively.
  • 6. Leadership & Team Development
    • Build, lead, and mentor a high-performing global marketing team.
    • Foster a growth-oriented, data-driven, and sales-focused marketing culture.
    • Stay ahead of industry trends and continuously innovate in marketing strategies and execution.

    • Experience working closely with sales and revenue teams to optimize lead generation and conversion.
    • Data-driven mindset with the ability to analyze metrics, forecast trends, and drive ROI-focused marketing.
