Director of Product Marketing

As the leader of product marketing, you are responsible for making our products “fly-off the shelf.” You will be the product evangelist and will play an integral role in organizing product launches. You know our competitors: what they do today and what they plan to do in the future. You also know our buyers, including how they make their buying decisions. You back up strategic insights with market evidence and then use that knowledge to drive the development of positioning and messaging that resonates with buyers and empowers our sales channels to be successful.

You will collaborate with our marketing team to develop innovative programs that drive demand. An attention to detail and eye for quality are critical to your success, along with an ability to grasp and present our product’s value proposition in a way that resonates and clearly articulates how we solve our buyers’ problems. In addition to the marketing team, you will regularly collaborate with product managers and sales channels. Be a Team Player!
