You will sit at the intersection of Sales, Product Marketing, and Revenue leadership, leading our B2B narrative, marketing strategy, and industry presence.

At Nextdoor, we offer a warm and inclusive work environment that embraces a hybrid employment model, blending an in office presence and work from home experience for our valued employees.  

As a Senior Sales Marketing Manager you’ll own Nextdoor’s B2B positioning and storytelling, and build a scalable marketing engine that makes Nextdoor a must‑buy for advertisers. You will bring a strong, well‑informed point of view on how Nextdoor shows up to advertisers and agencies, and turn that into sharp collateral, programs, and playbooks that help sellers win.

Your responsibilities will include: 

• B2B positioning & narrative: Own and continuously evolve Nextdoor’s B2B story—who we are, why we’re different, and how we drive business outcomes—then translate it into clear, compelling storytelling across master sales decks, one‑pagers, vertical/ad tech narratives, and thought‑leadership content
• Go‑to‑market & channels: Lead the B2B marketing strategy and editorial calendar across industry events, sales collateral, the business website, and other scaled channels, with clear objectives, target audiences, and KPIs
• Sales partnership & objection handling: Partner with senior Sales leaders on top accounts and priority categories, codify objection handling, and turn 1:1 solutions (RFPs, QBRs, email threads) into scalable tools, playbooks, and training
• ​​Creative, data & cross‑functional leadership: Work with Product marketing, Insights, RevOps, Design, and Comms to package data and case studies, brief/manage creative resources, and prioritize where Sales Marketing shows up to drive the greatest impact
• Participate in in-person Nextdoor events such as trainings, off-sites, volunteer days, and team building exercises
• Build in-person relationships with team members and contribute to Nextdoor’s company culture 

• 10–12 years of experience in B2B marketing, sales marketing, or brand/advertising strategy, ideally in digital media, ad tech, or a related category
• Proven track record of owning B2B positioning and narrative for a product, business line, or company and driving consistency across channels
• Deep experience partnering with Sales and senior revenue leaders; you’re comfortable in account reviews, QBRs, and GTM planning conversations
• Strong strategic storyteller who can move from insight to sharp POV to concrete collateral (decks, one‑pagers, narratives, and talk tracks)
• Experience leading B2B events and industry presence (selecting events, shaping our story on stage, partnering with Sales on meetings and follow‑ups)
• Comfortable digging into data and research to strengthen stories and handle objections (e.g., measurement, audience, brand safety, performance)
• Excellent written and visual communication skills; you know what a high‑performing sales deck looks like and how to get there
• Comfortable using AI‑powered tools (for content exploration, deck and messaging iteration, research synthesis, or workflow automation) to move faster while raising the bar on quality
• Ability to influence without direct authority and work effectively across Sales, Marketing, Product, and Operations
• Hands‑on operator who is willing to roll up their sleeves to build, refine, and ship assets, not just set strategy
• Eagerness to explore and apply AI and emerging technologies to reimagine how work gets done
