You will be part of our Business Technology team, working closely with teammates in Growth Marketing, Growth Engineering, Inbound Sales, and Global Brand. 

You will:

  • Own the marketing tech stack by leading the administration and management of integrations, lead routing, field mapping, documentation, and optimization of tooling
  • Manage existing vendor relationships, and evaluate, purchase, and implement new software partners
  • Troubleshoot and QA workflows, data issues, and other essential marketing ops functions

You should have: 

  • Minimum 5+ years of experience either in a marketing operations or demand generation role in a B2B environment. 
  • 2+ years of experience managing Pardot, Marketo or similar marketing automation tool
  • A deeply curious mentality: you’re excited to learn about complex problems in a complex industry and have the persistence to ferret them out. When you encounter a new software tool, you are eager to learn how it works and can fit into our systems
  • Proficient with analytical tools and developing reports/dashboards for demand generation performance. You can navigate conversations with both the data engineering team and non-technical marketing stakeholders on how our data is structured. 
  • Proven track record of inheriting and improving existing technologies and implementing new technologies.
  • Ability to build processes: you build the feedback loops that will make your plan a success: determining and informing the right stakeholders, gaining their buy-in and keeping them informed.
  • A true team player mentality: you’re always willing to jump in and help out. Flexport is a highly cross-functional company that requires effective collaboration to drive company-wide results. 
  • An integrated mindset, easily understanding the link between marketing activities and overall business goals including their potential impact on other departments.
  • You’re a clear communicator — you are effective communicating both at a exec level - making the complex simple - and in specific technical detail when needed to ensure we build through the detail
  • Direct exposure working with prospect/client databases on managing growth, enriching current data, and segmenting key audiences.
  • A "compliance first" attitude to keep our regulators happy and enthusiastic about Flexport since we operate in a heavily regulated industry
