About The Role:

Swayable is looking for a VP Marketing to own and scale the full marketing function through our next stage of growth. Reporting to the CEO and serving as a member of the leadership team, this person will lead marketing across demand gen, events, thought leadership, content, brand, PR, sales enablement, and marketing operations.

This is a hands-on leadership role for a full-stack B2B SaaS marketer who has helped a company scale meaningfully and knows how to turn marketing into real business impact. Events are a major channel today, so we’re especially excited by leaders who know how to make executive engagement, industry moments, and owned events translate into meaningful ROI.

What You’ll Do:

  • Own the marketing strategy that helps Swayable win with senior marketing, brand, insights, research, and strategy leaders at enterprise companies
  • Build a clear operating cadence for marketing performance, with visibility into what’s working across channels, campaigns, events, pipeline, and revenue impact
  • Build a repeatable demand engine that turns market awareness into qualified pipeline, revenue, and measurable ROI
  • Lead Swayable’s events strategy across conferences, executive dinners, webinars, owned events, and field marketing — with a clear plan for pre-event targeting, in-room impact, and post-event conversion
  • Develop thought leadership and content that makes Swayable a must-know platform for teams measuring message, creative, and campaign impact
  • Own the marketing narrative across campaigns, PR, customer stories, executive visibility, and category-building moments
  • Create sales enablement that helps the commercial team tell a sharper story, navigate complex buying committees, and move strategic deals forward
  • Manage the existing marketing team and external partners, bringing focus, accountability, and higher-quality execution across the function

Who You Are:

  • You’ve led marketing at a B2B SaaS company through a meaningful growth period (5-10X growth)
  • You’ve marketed to marketers, brand leaders, insights teams, research teams, or similar buyers
  • You have depth across demand gen, brand, events, content, PR, and sales enablement
  • You are analytical, ROI-oriented, and comfortable using data to guide decisions
  • You are a strong storyteller who can simplify a sophisticated product and category
  • You are scrappy, creative, commercial, and comfortable in a broad mandate
  • You bring strong judgment, executive presence, and clear communication
  • Experience in martech, adtech, consumer insights, market research, media measurement, or related categories is strongly preferred

Benefits:

  • 100% Medical, Dental & Vision Plans - no employee contribution required
  • Generous PTO
  • Equity Options
  • 401k plan, FSA
  • Ongoing professional development investments
  • Salary: $225-275K, dependent on experience

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.
