Product Marketing Collaboration: 

  • Work closely with the product marketing and the product team to ensure sales teams are equipped with up-to-date product information and competitive insights.
  • Translate complex product features into clear, compelling value propositions tailored for sales conversations.

  • Conduct thorough market research to stay informed about industry trends and competitive landscapes, using insights to refine content and marketing strategies.
  • Analyze performance metrics to evaluate the effectiveness of content and campaigns, using data to inform ongoing improvements and adjustments.

You'll excel at this role if you have:

  • At least 5 years of experience in a sales enablement or related marketing role, majority in B2G marketing and sales roles.
  • Strong expertise in creating impactful sales content, design and marketing collateral.
  • Expertise with B2G marketing and sales processes and the challenges faced by government entities.
  • Strong project management skills that allow you to juggle multiple projects at once without breaking a sweat
