Job Description: 

We are looking for a Director of Digital Marketing to consult with marketing leaders at Vista portfolio companies to drive results via the adoption of innovative, modern digital strategies.

Vista companies are eager to engage customers, prospects, and stakeholders effectively in today's omni-channel world, so the role would focus on several areas across the digital domain, including: website optimization, search engine optimization (SEO), search engine marketing (SEM), social media strategies, enhancing an "off domain" digital presence through online affiliates, mobile optimization, and analyzing the results via digital metrics.

This role sits within the Vista Consulting Group's Go-to-Market practice, and will include heavy collaboration across product experts, sales teams (as appropriate), and post-sales / customer organizations that can also reap the benefits of digital optimization.

The Director of Digital Marketing will also partner with demand generation to develop highly productive marketing engines – organizations that seamlessly integrate digital marketing techniques into buyer-centric campaigns to attract the right buyers and deliver an optimized buyer experience. Additionally, the Director of Digital Marketing will also be responsible for developing digital marketing best practices for Vista Consulting Group and developing (and maintaining) a digital marketing community across Vista family companies.

  • Familiarity with Marketing Automation
  • Proven track record of leadership and accelerated career trajectory
  • Management experience and strong ability to understand marketing challenges, diagnose root cause issues and take a consultative approach to supporting plans that build the people and processes in marketing organizations.
  • Strong performer in the marketing practice of a B2B marketing consulting, advisory, or an enablement firm is preferred.

  • Willingness to travel (expected travel in this role is 45% of the time, steady-state)
  • Austin, TX or Chicago, IL locations preferred

What we are looking for:

  • A true passion and excitement for commercial improvement and go-to-market optimization
  • A quick study, with a high level of intellectual curiosity and a continuous desire to learn and grow; someone who appreciates diversity of thought and new perspectives
  • An exceptional communicator, in both written and oral presentations, who brings energy and clarity to their message, and is comfortable in a variety of formats (presenting to executive audiences, facilitating workshops, candid one-on-one C-level sessions)
  • Strong desire to achieve and have lasting impact for Vista portfolio companies
  • A demonstrated ability to execute and deliver positive outcomes
  • An ability to engage and navigate multiple stakeholders and business partners, and lead teams through influence
  • Able to work cross-functionally with Demand Generation, Product Marketing, Marketing Communications, and Marketing Operations, as well as functions outside of Marketing (notably Product, Sales, and Post-Sales teams)
  • Flourishes while executing in a fast-paced, innovative, energizing environment
