Senior Staff Lifecycle Marketing Manager

About the position

We're hiring a Senior Staff Lifecycle Marketing Manager to lead from the front on a highly visible, hyper-growth product vertical responsible for a significant share of business unit revenue. This is not a conventional CRM role - you'll set the vision, build new systems, and steer cross-functional partners and stakeholders across Product Marketing, EPD, Operations, Sales, Data Science and Executive Leadership through ambiguity and accelerated growth. Your job isn't just to manage campaigns - it's to wrangle complexity, push creative boundaries, and deliver outsize impact in a business environment that moves fast and expects even faster results. You'll partner directly with senior stakeholders to define aggressive yet meaningful goals and help shape the future trajectory of one of our company's most promising verticals.

Responsibilities

• Influence: Earn trust from senior stakeholders through confident perspective, clear communication, and consistent delivery.
• Advocate: Champion the resourcing, tooling, and prioritization required to unlock the team's full growth potential.
• Architect: Design big-picture lifecycle infrastructure that aligns strategic goals with technical and operational constraints at a system level.
• Navigate: Lead execution through complex, constraint-heavy environments by surfacing bottlenecks, influencing priorities, and proactively managing risk.
• Translate: Turn executive direction into clear, actionable lifecycle programs, articulating trade-offs, dependencies, and measurable outcomes.
• Motivate: Inspire your team with a bold, forward-looking vision that drives innovation while staying grounded in business impact.
• Collaborate: Work cross-functionally with Product Marketing, EPD, Sales, Operations, and Data Science to embed lifecycle logic across the customer experience.
• Mentor: Uplevel lifecycle maturity across the org by coaching beyond your team and shaping how lifecycle strategy is applied at scale.
• Communicate: Deliver strategic insights and program updates with clarity and confidence, especially to VP and C-suite stakeholders.
• Establish: Build and scale a rigorous culture of testing, iteration, and insight-driven lifecycle evolution.

• Fluent in martech and data: Braze, Amplitude, SQL database architecture.
• Strong EQ and influence: ability to foresee and guide organizational change, not just adapt to it.
• History of stepping into informal leadership roles outside your core remit - shaping culture, onboarding others, or leading cross-functional initiatives.
• Past role as a thought leader or internal evangelist for lifecycle or growth marketing - influencing strategy beyond team boundaries.
• Builder's mindset with executive presence - equally comfortable creating new frameworks and confidently aligning cross-functional leaders around them.
