Gartner for Marketing Leaders, Large Enterprise Account Executive

Gartner for Marketing Leaders is hiring for a growth-focused Account Executive to join their high-performing team. In 2025 CMOs must lead marketing through disruption’s next wave by harnessing those disruptive forces impacting the enterprise and the marketing function. Harnessing disruptive forces to their full potential requires CMOs to take three key actions in 2025: 1) build AI-enabled marketing teams by identifying the most relevant areas and architecting roles in which AI can have an impact; 2) recast marketing’s value by communicating a vision of the power of customer engagement models to drive business growth; 3) orchestrate profitable growth across functions by confronting cross-functional collaboration challenges head-on.
