Requirements
- Extensive experience in B2B software marketing with senior leadership experience, including ownership of a marketing function or large program budget.
- Breadth across marketing disciplines such as demand, field, lifecycle, partner, and operations.
- Track record of landing cross-functional projects through influence rather than authority.
