This Director leads global campaign programs - around 14 people across Canada, the United States, Germany and the United Kingdom, spanning campaign marketing, intent-based orchestration and paid media. Those groups do not report to one leader today. Bringing them together under a single operating model, one set of standards and one accountable pipeline number is the central mandate of this role, and it happens during a period of real change across marketing and across our relationship with Sales.

Your Impact:

• Build the team. Set the operating model, roles, standards and priorities across three groups that operate separately today.
• Own paid media strategy and budget. Search, paid social, programmatic and syndication across business unit, cross-business-unit and portfolio campaigns. Decide where the money goes, move it when the evidence says to, and hold specialists and partners accountable to efficiency and pipeline return.
• Own the agency relationship. Set briefs, quality standards and performance expectations - and change partners if the work does not hold up.
• Own the pipeline number. Establish and report sourced and influenced pipeline using one consistent measurement approach across every campaign type.
• Lead integrated campaign planning and execution. Business unit, cross-business-unit and whole-portfolio campaigns, each tied to product portfolio growth priorities and to measurable pipeline.
• Direct the 6Sense practice. Buying group identification, intent scoring and orchestration. Operate the current MQL waterfall model while leading the transition to account-based qualification.

What The Role Offers:

• Genuine scope from day one: a global team across four countries and three disciplines, and the mandate to design how it works rather than inherit it.
• A paid media budget you own outright, and a media agency partnership being established now that you will shape and hold to standard.
• A team with real existing depth, including experienced 6Sense practitioners who run that practice day to day.
• Committed support through the consolidation. Your manager is directly involved in the organizational work through your first two quarters.
• Work across marketing operations (within RevOps), field marketing, corporate marketing and product marketing - different relationships that run in different modes and knowing which is which is much of the job.
• An honest brief. Consolidating three teams at this scale is rare experience, and we are looking for judgment about sequencing.

What You Need to Succeed:

• Five or more years in B2B campaign or demand marketing at a software or technology company, including at least two years managing people directly - direct reports, not matrixed influence.
• Direct ownership of a paid media budget across at least two of search, paid social, programmatic and syndication, including mid-quarter reallocation decisions you can speak to and what they returned.
• Experience managing agency partners: setting the brief, holding them to a standard, and changing or ending a relationship that was not working.
• Ownership of a pipeline number and the measurement model behind it, including separating sourced from influenced.
• Strong operating discipline - process design, measurement rigor and consistent execution across a distributed team.
• Comfort defining structure and owning decisions in a high-change environment, including working closely with Sales through significant transition.

Also valuable, and not expected in combination:

• Fluency with 6Sense or a comparable intent and orchestration platform.
• Running MQL waterfall and account-based qualification, through the transition between them.
• Campaign leadership across a multi-brand or multi-business-unit portfolio.
• Managing a team across multiple countries and time zones.
