About the Role

We are looking for a results-driven Marketing Manager to lead marketing programs that engage strategic partners, high-value accounts, and Trade Solution Providers as part of our extended customer ecosystem. This role combines partner marketing, account-based marketing (ABM), and campaign execution to support customer acquisition, partner enablement, and go-to-market impact.

You'll collaborate closely with sales, partnerships, product marketing, and content teams to develop and activate targeted campaigns. These campaigns will support the full relationship lifecycle - from awareness and acquisition to onboarding and growth - across key partner types, including strategic alliances, channel partners, and trade solution providers.

Key Responsibilities

Partner & Ecosystem Marketing

• Plan and deliver co-marketing programs with strategic partners, including Trade Solution Providers, to amplify shared value propositions.

• Develop marketing toolkits and campaign assets to support partner-led and co-branded activation across digital, content, and events.

• Drive partner awareness and education by highlighting joint solutions, use cases, and success stories through owned and earned media.

• Support partner recruitment and onboarding with targeted communications and enablement campaigns.

Account-Based Marketing (ABM)

• Lead ABM programs targeting priority accounts across industry verticals and regions, including Trade Solution Providers and enterprise buyers.

• Personalize messaging and experiences based on account insights, buyer roles, and business needs.

• Work closely with sales and business development teams to align ABM tactics with territory plans and pipeline goals.

• Use data, CRM, and intent tools to prioritize outreach and refine campaign targeting.

Campaign Planning & Activation

• Build and execute integrated marketing campaigns across email, digital, events, and social media - tailored by partner type or account segment.

• Manage the end-to-end campaign lifecycle, including creative briefing, timeline management, and stakeholder approvals.

• Ensure consistent messaging and brand experience across all touchpoints, in line with global marketing strategy.

Performance & Optimization

• Track and report on partner and ABM campaign performance using KPIs such as engagement, influenced pipeline, and partner activation.

• Analyze results and feedback to continuously optimize programs and share insights with stakeholders.

Qualifications

• 5-7 years of experience in B2B marketing, ideally with a focus on partner marketing, ABM, or ecosystem engagement.

• Strong understanding of Trade Solution Providers and how they operate within broader partner and customer networks.

• Proven success delivering targeted, multi-channel campaigns that drive measurable impact.

• Excellent collaboration skills across sales, channel, and marketing teams.

• Experience with CRM (e.g., Salesforce), marketing automation (e.g., Marketo, HubSpot), and ABM tools (e.g., 6sense, Demandbase) preferred.

• Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, and a proactive mindset.

• Comfortable in fast-paced, high-growth environments with evolving priorities.

A few of the benefits

• You'll have a great compensation package, private health & dental insurance, corporate discounts and career development through Dentsu University, and free access to LinkedIn learning
• 29+ days of annual leave (25 days of regular holidays, birthdays off and 3 additional wellness days)
• We also offer the opportunity to volunteer for up to 2 days per year and tend to close down the agency between Christmas and New Years
