• Sales enablement - Create and maintain collateral, pitch decks, and other materials that help Sales communicate product value to dealers.
• Performance optimization - Track results through reporting, testing, and analysis, and apply learnings to improve future campaigns.
• Cross-functional execution - Stay organized across multiple priorities, collaborate closely with partners, and help turn strategy into action.

What you’ll bring:

• Strong understanding of core marketing principles, with the ability to develop and execute end-to-end, multi-channel campaigns that drive business performance.
• Analytical, data-driven mindset. Experience with marketing tools such as Marketo, Salesforce, Looker/Omni, and Google Analytics is a plus.
