• Holistic Demand Literacy: Deep strategic understanding of how paid search, paid social, SEO and content distribution work together to fuel an enterprise pipeline. You should be able to provide data-driven insights and "big picture" suggestions to optimize these channels, even if you aren't the primary account manager.
• Proven Pipeline Impact: Direct experience owning enterprise B2B demand programs that produced measurable pipeline growth, specifically for contract values in the $100k–$500k range.
• Full-Cycle Program Ownership: A track record of developing and operating demand programs end-to-end, from strategic planning and messaging to execution, technical setup and iteration.
• Scale-Up Expertise: Experience working at B2B SaaS companies in the $10M–$50M ARR range. You know how to operate independently without large-company infrastructure while still delivering elite-level results.

• Cross-Functional Leadership: Experience bridging the gap between Marketing and Sales Development (SDR/BDR) teams to optimize lead follow-up and outbound-assisted motions.
• Channel Expansion: Proven success in launching a brand-new demand channel (e.g., Podcast, Community or, ABM) from $0 to a measurable pipeline contributor.
• Agency Management: Experience vetting and managing external specialized agencies (SEO, PPC or Creative) to ensure high-velocity execution.
• Domain Context: Background in G&A-focused SaaS (Legal, Tax, Finance, HR or adjacent compliance-heavy functions) with a deep understanding of enterprise buying cycles and long sales motions.
