About the role

We’re looking for an experienced Marketing Manager to work closely with our core audience of ranchers as we expand in the US. This person will directly interact with customers, plan and spearhead our participation at industry events, execute localized marketing campaigns to drive sales through digital advertising, content, and in-person interactions.

A strategic thinker and hands-on person, you’re as comfortable speaking with customers and understanding what makes them tick, as you are investigating data, and utilizing it to drive multi-channel campaigns. This role will help run our marketing pipeline and drive leads. This is a rare opportunity to define the future of one of the world’s most innovative agritech products and brands, and be part of a fast-growing, high-performing team.

Build and strong ties with ranchers, industry partners, and stakeholders to increase brand visibility, tell the Halter story and generate leads. Host events at customer farms to showcase success stories and meet prospective customers.
• Digital marketing optimization & content creation: Manage our marketing funnel, from lead generation to conversion, leveraging tools like HubSpot, Salesforce, and SEMrush to create, launch, and optimize paid and organic campaigns. Bring an analytical mindset to continuously track metrics and improve performance. Build strong content across our social media channels, newsletters, email campaigns and website. 
• Customer engagement: Visit ranches to connect directly with our customers, gather insights, and create authentic, valuable and relatable content. Gain a deep understanding of the needs and challenges our customers face to inform messaging.
• Collaborating: Work cross-functionally with sales, product, and global marketing teams to deliver successful marketing campaigns. Adapt quickly to changes in a fast-paced environment, embracing new ideas and continuously innovating to meet the evolving needs of our customers and industry. 

Who we’re looking for

• Marketing acumen: You bring 3-5 years of experience in events and marketing. You’re willing to dive into any marketing initiative, with a deep understanding of tools such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, HubSpot, Salesforce, and SEMrush.
• Detail-oriented event manager: You have proven your ability to organize and execute successful events, and excel at building rapport with customers, partners, vendors and internal teams. You take pride in creating successful experiences with close attention to detail with flawless execution. Your work ethic is unmatched and you are highly resourceful at getting the job done efficiently and effectively. 
• Proactive & results-driven: You are a self-starter with a demonstrated ability to independently drive marketing initiatives and deliver results in a fast-paced, dynamic environment and can prioritize tasks based on overall team goals.
• Team-oriented: You are a true team player who thrives in a collaborative, humble, and accountable environment. You’re eager to learn and grow alongside your colleagues, sharing knowledge and best practices to elevate the team as a whole.

Our Office First Approach

There’s a reason you visit your friends in person, live with your family and don’t do dinners over Zoom. Humans are wired for connection. We believe a world-class, in-person office culture is the best way for high-performing teams. 

Being office first is a core pillar of our culture. We believe in-person connections are key to driving your own growth, learning, impact, and building genuine long-lasting relationships. Strong relationships make it easier to disagree, give feedback, and do meaningful and aligned work. We don’t like having heaps of rules or policies, but this means having strong, trusted relationships is critical.

Our office vibe is something special, it’s hard to describe until you’re here, but people at Halter who have come from fully remote or hybrid companies say they could never go back - the high energy and spectacular people they are now surrounded by everyday makes work so enjoyable. Your growth, your learning and your impact is truly unlimited here, and a big part of that comes from being together solving problems, innovating, building context, and constantly learning from each other.
