Influencer & Executive Advocacy Leadership

• Build and maintain relationships with cybersecurity and enterprise technology influencers, creators, and thought leaders.
• Lead influencer and advocacy initiatives aligned to EMEA marketing priorities, ensuring credibility, authenticity, and measurable impact.

Integrated Campaign & Digital Program Orchestration

• Own EMEA-wide digital program coordination, ensuring campaign elements across channels (web, email, social, paid, events) are aligned, scheduled, and executed flawlessly.
• Partner with global marketing teams to prepare regional programs for launch, including timelines, briefs, asset readiness, QA, and go‑live coordination.
• Drive cross-functional visibility: consolidate updates, identify gaps, manage risks, and ensure delivery against campaign objectives.

Agency & Vendor Management

• Manage 2–3 key agency relationships across influencer marketing and digital programs.
• Define scopes, manage budgets, ensure performance, and drive accountability.
• Lead vendor onboarding, briefing, day‑to‑day communication, and delivery oversight.

Project & Operations Management

• Oversee end‑to‑end project timelines, dependencies, and stakeholder coordination for influencer campaigns, field programs, and digital activations.
• Maintain structured reporting and dashboards for EMEA leadership, translating program performance into insights and recommendations.
• Ensure strong governance, clear processes, and consistent execution across countries and teams.

Cross‑Functional Collaboration

• Work closely with PR, Brand, Digital, Field, Global Campaigns, and Social Media teams to ensure alignment and mutual amplification.
• Localize global initiatives for regional relevance while maintaining brand and message consistency.
• Integrate influencer and thought leadership activities into broader demand generation motions and regional events.

Skills & Experience

• 7–10+ years in B2B marketing, digital programs, influencer marketing, or integrated campaign management within technology or cybersecurity (enterprise experience strongly preferred).
• Hands‑on experience delivering multi‑channel programs in complex or regulated environments.
• Proven ability to manage agencies, negotiate scopes, oversee budgets, and drive performance.
• Strong understanding of LinkedIn, social advocacy, and digital amplification strategies in a B2B context.
• Demonstrated success working in matrixed global organizations with multiple stakeholders.
• Exceptional communication and relationship‑building skills across executive, regional, and global teams.
• Fluent English; proficiency in Italian, Spanish, or German is a plus.
• Highly organized, proactive, and detail‑oriented with strong analytical and reporting capability.

Personal Attributes

• Relationship‑driven leader who naturally builds influence and trust.
• Confident working with senior executives, external experts, and cross‑functional stakeholders.
• Operates with agility, clarity, and accountability in a fast‑moving global environment.
