• Champion the voice of the customer: Dig into data and conduct research to understand and effectively advocate for our employer customers and prospects across SMB and enterprise verticals.
• Test and learn to drive growth: Collaborate with product, marketing, and sales to test new and existing messaging, ensuring that we continually strengthen our employer value proposition.
• Evolve our sales pitch: Partner closely with sales leadership to support sales enablement, competitive analysis, sharpening our pitch and developing collateral to drive sales efficacy.
• Track the industry: Track industry trends, competitive best practices, and evolutions in the workplace benefits ecosystem to help us take advantage of emerging market trends.
• Partner with legal and compliance: Ensure all messaging is accurate, compliant, and upholds regulatory standards.

What You’ll Bring

• Marketing expertise: 5+ years of experience in marketing at a B2B2C or B2B product-led growth organization, with 3+ years in product marketing. Experience in fintech, HR tech, payroll, or highly-regulated industries is a plus.
• Excellent communication skills: You’re comfortable collaborating with partners and stakeholders across sales, marketing, product, and beyond.
• Strong writing skills: You’re an effective storyteller, translating data and insights into compelling messaging and well-crafted collateral that resonates with our employer audience.
• A keen eye for detail: Nothing slips past you – you’re always keeping yourself and your partners on track, organized, and accountable as you lead critical cross-functional efforts.
• Cross-functional leadership: You excel at driving multi-channel go-to-market strategy in partnership with peers and leaders of all levels across an organization
• Data proficiency: Experience with tools like Looker, Amplitude, and customer research / insights platforms that inform decisions and measure success.
