Your Role
As Sr. Program Manager reporting directly to the SVP of Marketing, you'll be the operational backbone that transforms our marketing organization from good to exceptional. This is a high-visibility, high-impact role where you'll have direct access to executive leadership while driving the operational transformation that scales our marketing effectiveness across a $400M ARR business.
This isn't your typical program management role - you'll be the operational architect who turns strategic vision into systematic execution. You'll identify AI opportunities we're not capitalizing on, optimize workflows that could be exponentially more efficient, and scale processes that work brilliantly in one team across our entire 1,500+ person organization. You'll operationalize everything from our quarterly planning process to our cross-functional project delivery, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.
Direct SVP reporting relationship means: immediate exposure to executive strategy sessions, board-level visibility on your initiatives, fast-track decision-making, and direct input into organizational direction.
Your initial focus will be operationalizing our marketing organization end-to-end. This includes conducting a comprehensive AI audit across demand generation, sales enablement, customer marketing, and operations to identify immediate optimization opportunities. Simultaneously, you'll design our quarterly planning process, implement systematic project tracking across all marketing initiatives, and build operational cadences that ensure nothing falls through the cracks. You'll establish the operational foundation that scales our marketing effectiveness and drives measurable productivity gains within your first quarter.
