To keep us headed in the right direction, we’re looking for people who understand winning is a team sport, who value and seek to learn from our team’s diverse experiences and backgrounds, who welcome a challenge and take risks in the pursuit of creating better outcomes for our customers, and who can, at any given time, step back to laugh and have some fun.

• Product Launch & GTM — Govern the launch process across the agency portfolio, ensuring cross‑functional alignment with Product, Sales, Customer Success, and Demand Gen to maximize revenue and adoption impact.
• Sales Partnership — Partner with Sales Enablement and CX leadership to ensure PMM output drives pipeline, competitive win rate, and adoption. Sponsor key enablement programs and own the agency‑side sales narrative.
• Competitive & Market Intelligence — Drive the competitive intelligence motion for the agency segment, partnering with the team’s broader competitive program and contributing to portfolio‑level insights.
• Cross‑Functional Influence — Partner with Product Management and Operations leadership as a trusted strategic advisor on roadmap, positioning, and pricing decisions for the agency portfolio.
• Performance — Own and report on marketing‑influenced business metrics: pipeline contribution, competitive win rate, adoption, and launch outcomes. Use data to continuously refine GTM strategy and execution.
• AI‑Forward Operating Model — Champion and contribute to Applied PMM’s use of AI tooling, custom skills, and scalable systems to compound team impact.
