Duties & Responsibilities:

Lincoln International is seeking a Marketing Manager, Integration & Projects to strengthen collaboration, insight, and cohesion across our global marketing team.

This individual will help ensure that every initiative—whether a thought leadership launch, client event, or digital campaign—is connected to each other and broader firm objectives and reaches the right audience at the right time.

  • Track marketing activities across functions to identify opportunities for reuse, amplification, stronger integration and sharing of best practices across industry and product teams.

  • Partner with internal teams and external vendors to ensure effective campaign execution and measurable performance.

  • Develop clear project briefs capturing objectives, audience, key messages, and performance metrics for each initiative.
• Analytics & Performance Insights
  • Partner with the Digital & Analytics team to assess the performance of marketing campaigns, events, and content against defined KPIs (e.g., invite rates, attendance rates, engagement, lead generation, conversion, ROI).
  • Leverage analytics dashboards and reports to identify what’s working and where improvements can be made.
  • Present findings and insights to marketing leadership and key stakeholders to inform future strategies and prioritization.
  • Support a culture of data-driven decision-making within the marketing team, ensuring creative ideas are paired with measurable outcomes.
• Operational Support & Process Improvement
  • Support Directors of Marketing in optimizing workflows and processes to improve collaboration, transparency, and consistency across teams.
  • Maintain the master marketing calendar and facilitate regular cross-team updates.
  • Help identify and implement enhancements to marketing systems and tools that improve team efficiency and integration.
  • Lead post-initiative reviews to capture lessons learned, performance data, and best practices.
• Collaboration & Communication
  • Facilitate regular marketing huddles, campaign check-ins, and cross-functional planning sessions.
  • Partner with leaders in sector, product, and regional teams to ensure alignment on marketing activities and priorities.
  • Provide clear and consistent communication on project progress, challenges, and successes to marketing leadership and firm stakeholders.
