Job Title
Demand Generation Marketing Manager

Job Description
Sage is looking for a Demand Generation Marketing Manager (IC) to help grow Sage HCM, our Human Capital Management software for HR and payroll.

HR, payroll, and workforce data are becoming more connected to the financial decisions businesses make every day, from labor costs and payroll accuracy to compliance, headcount planning, and business forecasting. For many mid-market organizations, these workflows remain manual, disconnected, and difficult to reconcile across HR and Finance. Sage HCM connects HR, payroll, workforce data, and financial management in one place as an add-on too Sage Intacct, our AI accounting and financial management software that helps growing and mid-sized businesses manage their finances with more accuracy and visibility. With AI-powered workflows supporting areas such as payroll preparation, validation, reconciliation, and compliance-risk review, Sage HCM helps businesses reduce manual work and make more confident workforce and finance decisions.

This role will help turn the scale of Sage Intacct's existing marketing and sales engine into a stronger source of opportunities for Sage HCM. You will focus on building Sage HCM into existing campaigns, programs and sales follow-up processes already happening across the business.

This role is focused on multi-channel demand generation strategy, campaign plays, execution planning, and optimization for Sage HCM. You will not own every channel directly or direct other teams' work. Instead, you will partner across marketing, sales and product marketing teams to activate HCM messaging and make it easier for existing programs to create qualified HCM pipeline.

Owning the HCM demand generation plan, you'll prioritize the highest-impact opportunities, review funnel performance, coordinate cross-functional activity, and help existing marketing and sales programs generate more qualified HCM opportunities.

Location Requirement: Hybrid; 3 days per week from our Atlanta office (Ponce City Market)
