And this is where you come in.

This is an individual contributor role - you'll own the demand gen program end to end, with the opportunity to build a team as it proves out.

AFTER A SUCCESSFUL FIRST YEAR, YOU WILL HAVE

- Built a repeatable enterprise demand generation engine that produces a predictable monthly volume of sales-accepted opportunities from target accounts.

- Launched an account-based program against a defined target account list, with measurable engagement lift and named-account meetings sourced.

- Rebuilt the inbound-to-sales handoff with the account executive team - scoring and routing defined, time from inquiry to meeting cut, and inquiry-to-opportunity conversion improved.

- Shipped integrated campaigns carrying Zello's enterprise story across paid, web, email, and events, each reporting pipeline attribution monthly.

- Instrumented campaign measurement so every program carries a cost-per-opportunity and pipeline-contribution number the revenue team trusts.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Own enterprise demand generation end to end - the strategy, the execution, and the pipeline number it produces.

- Build the target account list with sales leadership, then run the account-based campaigns that penetrate it.

- Design lead scoring and routing in HubSpot, then revise it based on what actually converts.

- Translate Zello's positioning into integrated campaigns across paid media, the website, lifecycle email, and events.

- Own SEO for the website - keyword targeting and on-page optimization that grows organic traffic feeding the pipeline.

- Partner with account executives on pipeline quality - sit in pipeline reviews, follow the handoff, fix what breaks.

- Direct paid media and lifecycle execution through contractors, agencies, and shared design and RevOps resources.

- Report performance monthly: spend, cost per opportunity, and pipeline contribution by program.

- Pick up selected existing marketing programs during the transition - final scope confirmed with the hiring manager.

WHO YOU ARE

- 3-6 years in B2B growth or demand generation as an individual contributor.

- You've owned a pipeline number rather than a lead number, and you can walk through exactly how you moved it.

- You've built a demand generation program from target definition through to sales-accepted opportunity - not just executed campaigns someone else scoped.

- You've run account-based campaigns against a named list and can show the engagement and meetings that came out of them.

- You bring sales in before launch rather than after - the account executives you've worked with would call you easy to work with.

- You cut programs that aren't producing and say so early, instead of defending the spend.

- You build the measurement yourself, present the number, and hold up under questioning from revenue leadership.

- You work hands-on in HubSpot, or a comparable marketing automation platform, building workflows, scoring, and reporting without waiting for support.

A NOTE ON SCOPE

This is an enterprise demand generation seat - the job is measured in pipeline, not leads, brand, or content. You'll direct paid media rather than execute it day to day, and this isn't a self-serve or product-led growth role. If that's the kind of ownership you're looking for, we want to hear from you.

We hire for potential, passion for our mission, and a knack for solving difficult problems over checking every qualification box. We have competitive pay, equity with significant upside, and intentionally design our benefits to encourage healthy and well-balanced employees, flexible schedules and time off. We even offer a sabbatical after every five years of service so you’re able to pursue and enjoy what matters most to you. And of course, we wouldn’t be a technology company without a ping-pong table and free snacks in our break room. Join us!
