  • Reduce executive burden by owning high-quality inputs for monthly and quarterly business reviews
  • Define and operationalize a marketing performance framework across strategic and core initiatives in partnership with Finance and Analytics
  • Lead operating mechanics (e.g. reviews, forums, milestone updates) that keep work aligned and on track across GTM teams
  • Partner with the Program Management and Operations leader to align execution within strategic programs

What we are looking for:

  • 10+ years of experience in marketing strategy, business operations, or management consulting
  • Proven ability to operate at both the strategic and executional level
  • Executive presence and strong storytelling ability across written and verbal formats
  • Deep familiarity with go-to-market planning, product launch cycles, and performance reporting
  • Track record of influencing cross-functional teams and driving alignment across complex, ambiguous environments
  • Experience working directly with senior executives (CMO, GM, Head of Product, etc.)

What we would like to see:

  • Experience in high-growth consumer tech or agency-side marketing strategy
  • MBA

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
