Manager, Marketing Operations (Hybrid from San Francisco, Denver or New York)

The Manager, Marketing Operations will be a critical leader on the marketing team, responsible for owning and evolving our marketing technology ecosystem, lead flow processes, and campaign operations. This role drives the systems and workflows that power how leads are captured, nurtured, and handed off to sales.

The ideal candidate is a Marketo expert who thrives on building scalable systems, optimizing data flows, and enabling marketers to execute with speed and confidence. They take a consultative, process-oriented approach to problem-solving, bring clarity to complexity, and are equally comfortable in the weeds and at 30,000 feet. They know how to prioritize strategically, lead with empathy, and roll up their sleeves to get things done.

What You'll Do:

  • Martech Stack Management: Oversee the function and optimization of marketing technology platforms, including Marketo, Leandata, Drift, and OneTrust. Ensure tools are effectively integrated to support marketing strategies and data integrity
  • Lead Management & Routing: Design and audit lead ingestion processes, ensuring efficient lead scoring, nurturing, and routing to sales teams. Collaborate with sales to refine the lead-to-sales handoff process, enhancing conversion rates
  • Campaign Operations: Support the marketing team in setting up and deploying campaigns across various channels. Ensure campaigns are executed flawlessly, with accurate tracking and reporting mechanisms in place
  • Data Analysis & Reporting: Monitor and analyze marketing performance metrics to provide actionable insights. Utilize data to inform strategy, optimize campaigns, and improve ROI
  • Team Leadership & Cross-Functional Enablement: Lead a team of three martech professionals, managing daily prioritization of inbound requests while establishing scalable processes that enable the team to deliver efficiently. Champion the role of Marketing Ops across the org by training and aligning partner teams on MOPs responsibilities, workflows, and best practices—striking a balance between advocacy and approachability
  • Process Improvement: Continuously evaluate and improve marketing operations processes for efficiency and scalability. Implement best practices and stay updated with the latest industry trends
  • Tool Strategy & Innovation: Evaluate new technologies that can enhance marketing performance, while thoughtfully simplifying and streamlining our tech stack to ensure scalability, usability, and ROI. Act as a strategic partner in recommending tools that align with team needs and long-term goals

What We're Looking For: 

  • Mastery in Marketo, including operational program setup, lead lifecycle configuration, campaign execution, and system governance
  • Experience designing and managing lead routing logic, scoring models, and marketing-to-sales handoff processes in a B2B environment
  • Strong understanding of marketing automation best practices, data integrations, and how systems like Salesforce, Marketo and other Marketing and Sales platforms work together
  • Proven ability to audit and optimize lead ingestion workflows, ensuring clean data, reliable syncs, and scalable processes
  • Experience leading sprint planning, organizing team workflows, and overseeing delivery of martech and campaign operations support
  • Excellent communicator with the ability to partner cross-functionally, translate requirements into technical solutions, and build strong relationships across SalesOps, Business Systems, and Marketing
  • A collaborative and thoughtful leader who can mentor a small team, foster growth, and drive accountability
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience

We’ll be super impressed if you have experience in any of these: 

  • Experience with Marketo Measure (Bizible) or other attribution tracking platforms, and understanding of multi-touch attribution models
  • Experience using Marketo Velocity scripting to personalize email content at scale using dynamic variables, custom objects, and advanced logic
  • Experience in HTML/CSS and basic JavaScript to build or customize landing pages and forms within Marketo or other marketing platforms
