An Introduction to Codal
Codal is an award-winning web design and development consultancy that helps enterprise organizations solve complex problems and accelerate growth through elegant, data-driven digital solutions. Our areas of expertise include application modernization, eCommerce, UX/UI design, product strategy, data analytics, and artificial intelligence.

At Codal, you will collaborate with some of the most innovative organizations in the world and work on cutting-edge technologies that push the boundaries of design and software development. We promote long-term success, not just for our clients but for our team, helping you develop a professional roadmap that takes your career to new heights.

What You’ll Do

Build and run a joint marketing plan with each priority partner with shared goals, a campaign calendar and a budget

Build working relationships with partner marketing and partner manager counterparts at each platform, and keep Codal top of mind with their teams

Secure and manage market development funds (MDF) and co-marketing budgets, including proposals, approvals, claims and results reporting

Plan and execute joint campaigns with partners: webinars, email, co-branded landing pages, social and paid promotion

Produce joint content that shows what Codal does on each platform: case studies, migration guides, solution briefs and client stories

Turn Codal's offers (platform migrations, composable commerce, CMS implementations) into partner-ready messaging for each ecosystem

Keep partner directory listings, marketplace profiles, certifications, badges and award submissions current and competitive

Plan Codal's presence at partner conferences and summits, including sponsorships, speaking slots and client meetings

Co-host dinners, roundtables and workshops with partners for shared target accounts, working with the partner managers

Arm each partner's sales and partner teams with the Codal one-pagers, case studies and talking points they need to bring us into deals

Work with Codal's partner managers and sales pods on account mapping and joint outreach to named accounts

Hand partner-sourced leads to the SDRs in each sales pod with the context they need to convert

Track partner-sourced and partner-influenced leads and pipeline in HubSpot, by partner and by campaign

Report results to leadership and to each partner, and use them to decide where Codal invests next

Work with practice leads in commerce and content who own the message for their area

Coordinate with the Digital Marketing Lead, the Marketing Manager and the content team so partner campaigns land as part of one program, not separate pushes

What You Bring

5+ years in B2B marketing, with at least 3 years in partner, channel or alliance marketing

Experience at an agency, systems integrator or consulting firm that sells through technology partners, or on the partner marketing team at an ecommerce or CMS platform

Working knowledge of the eCommerce and content management ecosystem, and of how platform partner programs, tiers and co-marketing funds work

A track record of joint campaigns and co-hosted events that produced qualified leads and pipeline for both sides

Experience securing and managing MDF or co-marketing budgets, from proposal to claim

Hands‑on command of HubSpot or a comparable marketing automation and CRM platform, including campaign tracking and source attribution

Experience working day to day with partner managers and sales teams on account mapping and lead follow‑up

Strong writing and briefing skills; you can draft the case study, the co‑branded landing page and the partner one‑pager yourself

Ability to travel to partner events and conferences

Nice to Have

Direct experience in the Shopify, Shopware, BigCommerce, Sanity or Contentstack partner programs

Understanding of composable and headless commerce, and how commerce platforms and CMSs are bought together

Marketing experience in enterprise ecommerce, digital transformation or AI services

Experience with ABM programs targeting named enterprise accounts

Experience using AI tools to accelerate research, content production and campaign operations

Compensation And Benefits
The base salary range for this role is $90,000 to $135,000 per year, depending on experience and the depth of your partner marketing track record in commerce and content platforms. Codal also offers:

Medical, dental and vision insurance

401(k) plan

Generous paid time off and company holidays

Hybrid schedule based out of our Chicago headquarters (3 days a week required)
