About the Team:
Quizlet’s marketing team is responsible for driving brand awareness, user engagement, and subscription growth. This role will report to the Head of Product Marketing and it will be highly cross-functional.
About the Role:
As a Lead Product Marketing Manager at Quizlet, you’ll define how we connect with and inspire millions of students and teachers worldwide. This highly strategic role sits at the crossroads of product, storytelling, and go-to-market leadership — driving impact across the full funnel, from acquisition and activation to engagement and retention.
You’ll lead cross-functional go-to-market strategies for major launches and campaigns, collaborating with Product, Growth, Lifecycle, Paid Marketing, and Brand/Social leaders. With a strong command of insights, positioning, and narrative development, you’ll ensure Quizlet’s story is consistent, compelling, and drives measurable business outcomes.
You’re a confident communicator and strategic storyteller who can synthesize complex ideas into compelling narratives. You excel at leading cross-functional alignment, bringing clarity to ambiguity, and driving consensus among senior stakeholders.
We’re looking for a decisive, data-informed leader who can interpret results, shape business strategy, and guide teams toward shared understanding and impact. While this role doesn’t include direct people management, it requires exceptional leadership presence — someone who can advise, influence, and inspire peers and executives across the organization.
We’re happy to share that this is an onsite position in our San Francisco office. To help foster team collaboration, we require that employees be in the office a minimum of three days per week: Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday and as needed by your manager or the company. We believe that this working environment facilitates increased work efficiency, team partnership, and supports growth as an employee and organization.
