About the Role

Updater is seeking a strategic, commercially minded Vice President of Marketing to lead our next stage of growth. This is a unique leadership opportunity spanning two distinct disciplines: B2B SaaS enterprise platform marketing and large-scale D2C consumer acquisition.

You’ll shape how enterprise customers understand and adopt Updater’s technology while leading large-scale consumer acquisition programs that convert demand into orders. We’re looking for a leader who brings deep expertise across both disciplines and can connect them to a cohesive growth strategy.

Reporting to the Chief Revenue Officer, you’ll lead marketing strategy and execution across product marketing, performance marketing, go-to-market, user engagement, brand, and marketing operations. You’ll inherit an established, high-performing team and significant marketing investments, with the opportunity to elevate our market position and accelerate growth.

You’ll also partner closely with Updater’s current VP of Marketing, who will remain actively involved in the business as a strategic partner, providing continuity, context, and support as you establish the strategy and priorities for the team. We’re looking for someone who can simplify our narrative, make smart investment decisions, inspire a talented team, and deliver meaningful business results.

  • Empower the team to identify, test, and scale new channels, strategies, and opportunities to increase consumer acquisition and orders.

Brand & Market Leadership

  • Shape how Updater shows up in the market, building a clear, differentiated brand and establishing our leadership in the commerce industry.
  • Lead corporate communications, thought leadership, brand strategy, and PR to grow awareness, credibility, and market presence.

Team Leadership & Marketing Excellence

  • Lead and elevate an established, high-performing team, fostering creativity, ownership, collaboration, and accountability.
  • Set clear priorities and oversee marketing operations, resources, and performance to maximize the team’s impact.

Requirements

  • Strong performance marketing background, with experience overseeing paid acquisition, conversion optimization, customer acquisition economics, and significant marketing budgets.
  • Demonstrated experience leading both B2B SaaS or enterprise platform marketing and large-scale D2C consumer acquisition, with a strong understanding of the distinct strategies, channels, and economics of each.
  • Demonstrated experience leading multidisciplinary marketing teams, developing senior talent, and managing substantial resources and investments.
  • Strong financial and commercial acumen, with the ability to evaluate marketing ROI, optimize budget allocation, and connect marketing performance to business outcomes.
  • Exceptional strategic thinking and communication skills, with the ability to translate complex technology and business objectives into compelling market positioning and actionable growth strategies.
