About the opportunity

We are looking for an experienced Sr. Product Marketing Manager to help disrupt the legacy CMS industry, as we enter an ambitious new growth phase fueled by our recent $175 million funding round. 

This role in particular will focus on driving new product-led-growth (PLG) initiatives, as Contentful accelerates our self-service offerings (the Team and Community editions). You will help drive our revenue funnel, working closely with a cross-functional group including our Product Growth team, Demand Generation team, Product Advocacy team, and Customer Experience team. This will include digging into market data and facilitating new research, establishing a thorough understanding of our customers and competition, developing go-to-market strategies, etc.

• Research key market and product data, conduct user interviews to understand key customer segments, their specific needs, and lifecycle stages
• Research the market landscape and collect competitive intelligence to benchmark product capabilities and develop effective product positioning strategy

What you need to be successful?

• 8+ years of relevant experience, with roles specifically as a Product Marketer, but also can include working alongside a PMM team in related roles: growth, customer marketing, content marketing, B2B direct marketing/demand gen, sales enablement, etc. You have an established Product Marketing playbook to bring along.
• A successful track record of helping drive product-led-growth initiatives and experiments for a self-service SaaS product, working with a cross-functional combination of Demand Gen teams, Product Growth teams, Sales Development teams, and/or Product Advocacy teams. 
• Experience using, building, marketing, or selling modern API stacks for technical audiences (e.g. developers, architects) to enable business users and stakeholders (example technologies include Twilio, Stripe, Sendgrid, Segment, Algolia, etc.).
• A (near) native level of English, as we sell a majority of our software in North America.
