What you’ll do The Senior Manager, Marketing Operations is the day-to-day operating lead for the Marketing department, responsible for turning approved priorities into clear, sequenced, and accountable work across content, production, communications, growth, and learning. Reporting to the Senior Director, Marketing, this role owns the operating system that keeps Marketing work moving through intake, triage, prioritization, workflow visibility, review routing, escalation, publishing support, performance-review coordination, and continuous improvement. This role integrates content production, communications, growth and lifecycle marketing, analytics support, product and customer insights, subject-matter expertise, and review needs into a single practical workflow, enabling Marketing to publish consistently without becoming a request desk. This role supports strategy by making capacity, blockers, risks, decision needs, and tradeoffs visible, while final strategic direction, budget, executive alignment, and factual accuracy remain with the accountable owners. The ideal candidate is a calm, highly organized operator who can lead people, manage complexity, protect focus, and improve systems without adding unnecessary processes.
