How you can help make a better world of work The Senior Marketing Program Manager is a highly experienced, autonomous contributor responsible for driving the operational success and continuous optimization of our most critical marketing initiatives. You will primarily focus on managing and optimizing the end‑to‑end Go‑to‑Market (GTM) launch process for new products, features, and campaigns, ensuring speed, quality, and cross‑functional alignment between Product, Engineering, Sales, and Marketing teams.
You will:
Drive and manage the operational cadence of complex, high‑visibility marketing programs, particularly GTM launches, from planning through post‑launch review—including scoping, timeline management, risk mitigation, and dependency tracking.
Identify and proactively address friction points within the existing GTM process, implementing solutions and operational best practices to improve efficiency, cycle time, and cross‑functional handoffs.
Serve as the central point of contact, facilitating clear and consistent communication between core stakeholders (e.g., Product Managers, Sales Enablement, Marketing Channel Owners) to ensure alignment on launch goals and deadlines.
Create, maintain, and present program‑level dashboards and status reports to senior stakeholders and project teams, clearly communicating program status, risks, and changes, driving decision‑making to resolution.
Drive adoption and optimization of our current program management tools (e.g., Google Sheets, internal communication tools) to track programs, manage resources, and standardize workflows.
Maintain high‑quality, up‑to‑date program documentation, playbooks, and training materials that enable other teams to easily follow and adopt the standardized launch process.
You have:
3–5 years of progressive experience in Project Management, Program Management, or a GTM Operations role, preferably within a fast‑paced tech company.
Demonstrated experience managing the full lifecycle of product or feature GTM launches.
Proven ability to analyze, document, and improve existing cross‑functional operational processes and drive adoption of new workflows.
High proficiency with common program management and workplace tools (e.g., Google Sheets, Asana, Jira, or similar PM software), and experience leveraging these tools for sophisticated tracking and automation.
Exceptional communication, influencing, and collaboration skills, with the ability to manage dependencies and drive accountability among peers and senior stakeholders without direct authority.
Bachelor’s degree in Business, Marketing, or a related field; PMP or similar certification is a plus.
You are:
A program executor who drives complex, multi‑functional programs with a high degree of autonomy, managing timelines, resources, and dependencies to deliver predictable results.
A Process Optimizer who independently refines established processes within their program scope, proposing and implementing practical solutions to increase efficiency.
An expert who uses existing tooling to track and report on program health, driving best practices and high data quality within the current ecosystem.
Someone who consistently communicates program status and risks clearly and succinctly to all levels, acting as a respected process authority who resolves tactical conflicts among peer teams.
