Strategic Growth Manager

Background

• 5-8 years in marketing strategy, B2B consulting, or agency-side business development
• Deep fluency in how mid-market B2B businesses grow through marketing — experience in manufacturing, industrial, or professional services is a plus, though we work across many B2B industries
• Track record of winning business through marketing strategy expertise, not just relationship management
• Comfortable presenting to and building relationships with founders and CEOs
• Strong written communicator — you can draft a proposal that reflects genuine marketing strategy insight and offers clarity into complex subject matter
• Genuinely tech-savvy — fluent in CRM platforms, digital communication tools, and modern sales workflows and automation (HubSpot experience a big plus)
• AI-proficient — you actively use AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) to work faster and smarter, not as a novelty

How You're Wired

• You think in marketing strategy first, tactics second
• You're self-directed — you don't need handholding to own a process
• You're hungry to grow with the company, not just fill a seat
• You thrive on helping founders and CEOs see around corners, on challenging their marketing thinking, and on shaping smarter growth strategies
• You are a natural with understanding data and analytics
• You are a persuasive storyteller
• You persevere despite the obstacles
• You have an insatiable curiosity
• You are highly coachable
• You are known for your problem-solving abilities

Not a Fit If

• Your background is pure sales with shallow marketing strategy depth
• You need a large company infrastructure to perform
• You're not willing or able to travel 15-20 times per year for speaking events and conferences
• You're looking for a role where success is measured by hours logged — we're energized by outcomes, not activity
