Job Overview:Build a Marketing organization where exceptional creativity and commercial accountability reinforce each other. You inherit experienced talent in brand, creative, product marketing and customer growth. Your job is to unlock more value from that foundation: develop people, establish metrics accountability, invest intelligently and raise Marketing's measurable contribution to growth. The CRO should be able to trust you to lead the function independently. Build it as an AI-native function: shared product and customer knowledge, reusable assets and intelligent workflows that give a talented team the strategic capacity, creative output and speed of a much larger one.
Responsibilities:Drive measurable revenue impact. Tie every meaningful marketing investment to a clear business hypothesis and a measured outcome across pipeline, bookings, expansion, pilot subscriptions, and retention. Build the baselines, attribution, and learning loops that guide budget decisions, and know when brand calls for longer-term indicators instead of last-touch precision.
Build an always-on demand engine. Create sustained market presence through digital, content, field, community, advocacy, partnership, and performance programs, paired with major launches when warranted. Grow non-branded demand and pipeline quality for both a concentrated B2B buyer audience and a much larger pilot audience.
Make product marketing a strategic advantage. Own segmentation, ideal customer profiles, competitive intelligence, win/loss, and voice of customer, along with positioning, launches, pricing and packaging research, and sales enablement. Turn complex capabilities into reasons to buy, expand, and stay, and shape how the business understands the roadmap.
Grow revenue from existing customers. Build an installed-base growth strategy spanning cross-sell, upsell, account-based campaigns, education, advocacy, and retention. Partner with Account Management, Sales, Customer Experience, and Revenue Operations, treating expansion pipeline as a core Marketing outcome.
Scale pilot subscription growth. Lead and support Pilot Growth, run day to day by our Head of Pilot Growth, across acquisition, conversion, lifecycle, retention, and win-back for Pilotbase Pilot and LogTen. Work with Product to move pilots from school-required usage to independently paid subscriptions.
Build an unmistakable brand. Lead the expression of our brand architecture across Pilotbase, Flight Schedule Pro, Pilotbase Pilot, and LogTen while preserving each product's earned equity. Bring strong aesthetic judgment and connect awareness and engagement to commercial goals.
Architect an AI-native marketing function. Design how Marketing works with AI to scale market intelligence, accelerate testing, and personalize at scale, held to the same commercial standard as everything else. Faster content production is the floor; growth is the goal.
Develop exceptional talent. Lead an accomplished multidisciplinary team: coach senior specialists and emerging leaders, clarify ownership, give direct feedback, and raise creative ambition without adding approval layers.
