Vice President of Marketing
Department: Marketing
Employment Type: Full Time
Location: Remote - USA
Reporting To: Chief Executive Officer
Compensation: $175,000 - $250,000 / year
Description
Summit K12 is seeking an accomplished, high-caliber EdTech marketing executive to lead the company's next phase of growth. The Vice President of Marketing will report directly to the CEO, serve as a member of Senior Staff, and own the strategy, execution, operating discipline, and measurable business impact of the Marketing organization.
This is a highly visible, enterprise-level role for a leader who combines exceptional strategic judgment, intellectual curiosity, executive presence, and attention to detail with the willingness to remain close to execution. The successful candidate will elevate Summit K12's brand, accelerate demand and market expansion, strengthen product positioning and go-to-market execution, deepen relationships with influential education leaders and organizations, and build a modern marketing engine that contributes directly to ARR growth, NRR, renewal rates, and EBITDA performance.
The executive will lead a team of approximately 15-20 professionals and will regularly collaborate with the Chief Academic Officer, VP of Sales, VP of Professional Development, Product leadership, Customer Support, and other members of Senior Staff. The role has the potential to grow into the Chief Marketing Officer position based on performance, organizational needs, and the continued growth of Summit K12.
Key Responsibilities
1. Enterprise Marketing Strategy & Senior Leadership
  • Develop and execute a comprehensive, multi-year marketing strategy aligned with Summit K12's growth plan, customer priorities, product roadmap, and financial objectives.
  • Serve as a trusted strategic advisor to the CEO and a highly engaged member of Senior Staff, bringing market insight, disciplined analysis, and clear recommendations to enterprise decisions.
  • Translate company objectives into focused marketing priorities, operating plans, resource allocation decisions, and measurable quarterly and annual outcomes.
  • Identify market shifts, competitive threats, policy developments, partnership opportunities, and emerging customer needs that should shape company strategy.

2. Revenue Growth, Performance Management & Accountability
  • Build a marketing operating model tied to ARR growth, NRR, renewal rates above 95%, EBITDA growth, pipeline creation, product adoption, and expansion within existing customers.
  • Establish clear definitions, targets, dashboards, and executive reporting for marketing-sourced and marketing-influenced pipeline, conversion, campaign performance, customer acquisition efficiency, and return on investment.
  • Partner with Sales and Customer Support to improve account-based marketing, cross-sell and upsell campaigns, renewal support, customer advocacy, and expansion strategies.
  • Use data to make timely decisions, reallocate resources, discontinue low-return activities, and ensure the Marketing team is accountable for business outcomes rather than activity or vanity metrics.

3. Brand, Market Positioning & Corporate Communications
  • Strengthen Summit K12's national brand, reputation, share of voice, and relevance with superintendents, senior district administrators, educators, state leaders, strategic partners, and the broader K-12 market.
  • Develop differentiated enterprise and product messaging that clearly communicates Summit K12's value, measurable student outcomes, customer impact, and competitive advantages.
  • Set a high standard for executive-quality written communication, editorial accuracy, brand consistency, and attention to detail across every external and internal marketing asset.
  • Lead corporate communications, media strategy, executive messaging, major announcements, award submissions, and reputation management.

4. Product Marketing & Go-to-Market Leadership
  • Own product marketing across the Summit K12 portfolio, including market segmentation, buyer insights, positioning, messaging, packaging, competitive intelligence, launch strategy, and adoption campaigns.
  • Partner with Product, Academic, Sales, Professional Development, and Customer Success leaders to create coordinated, high-quality go-to-market plans for new products, enhancements, market entries, and strategic initiatives.
  • Ensure Sales and customer-facing teams are equipped with compelling collateral, presentations, demonstrations, case studies, competitive tools, and executive-level value narratives.
  • Create rigorous launch readiness processes, post-launch measurement, and feedback loops that improve execution and accelerate revenue realization.

5. Digital, Social Media & AI-Enabled Marketing
  • Lead an integrated digital strategy spanning website, search, email, social media, paid media, content, webinars, marketing automation, and account-based campaigns.
  • Establish Summit K12 as a sophisticated and influential voice across relevant social platforms, using content and community engagement to reach district leaders, educators, partners, and prospective employees.
  • Apply AI strategically and responsibly across research, content development, personalization, campaign optimization, analytics, creative workflows, and marketing operations to improve quality, speed, scale, and productivity.
  • Continuously evaluate marketing technology, data quality, attribution, and automation capabilities and ensure the technology stack supports efficient growth.

6. Executive Visibility, Thought Leadership, Podcasts & Media
  • Serve as a polished, credible, and engaging public representative of Summit K12 at conferences, board meetings, customer events, panels, webinars, podcasts, media interviews, and executive forums.
  • Host and facilitate podcasts, executive interviews, and high-profile conversations with superintendents, education leaders, public officials, dignitaries, association executives, and other influential stakeholders.
  • Prepare the CEO and other company leaders for keynote presentations, media appearances, interviews, board discussions, and strategic customer engagements.
  • Build an annual thought-leadership platform that advances Summit K12's point of view on English learner outcomes, instructional innovation, AI in education, assessment, accountability, and other priority topics.

7. Education Community Relationships & Strategic Partnerships
  • Develop trusted relationships with superintendents, cabinet-level district administrators, state education leaders, and executives and board members of influential education organizations.
  • Represent Summit K12 with organizations such as NABE, TABE, CABE, ALAS, the Council of the Great City Schools, and similar national and state associations.
  • Identify, negotiate, and manage strategic partnerships, sponsorships, media relationships, association programs, and co-marketing opportunities that expand market reach and business value.
  • Build a disciplined stakeholder engagement plan that connects relationship development to brand leadership, customer acquisition, renewal, expansion, and long-term strategic opportunities.

8. Events, Conferences & Field Marketing
  • Set the strategy and standards for national conferences, regional events, executive roundtables, customer summits, webinars, and field marketing programs.
  • Evaluate every major event based on strategic relevance, audience quality, pipeline contribution, customer engagement, partnership value, and measurable return on investment.
  • Ensure Summit K12's presence is distinctive, professional, outcomes-oriented, and consistently executed across all event and field experiences.
  • Partner closely with Sales and Professional Development to convert events and relationships into qualified opportunities, customer expansion, and stronger market influence.

9. Financial Stewardship, Negotiation & Marketing Operations
  • Own annual marketing planning, forecasting, and a multimillion-dollar budget with exceptional fiscal discipline, transparency, and accountability.
  • Negotiate effectively with agencies, event organizers, media partners, technology providers, contractors, and strategic partners to improve value, terms, quality, and risk management.
  • Maintain strong controls over commitments, contracts, approvals, spend, vendor performance, and budget variance; ensure resources are concentrated on the highest-return priorities.
  • Build scalable processes, operating rhythms, project management standards, and quality controls that support reliable execution and accurate executive reporting.

10. Team Leadership & Organizational Development
  • Lead, coach, and develop a high-performing marketing organization of approximately 15-20 professionals across product marketing, communications, digital, content, creative, events, operations, and related functions.
  • Assess organizational design, role clarity, capabilities, performance, and succession needs; recruit and retain exceptional talent as the company scales.
