This Role Is Probably Not For You If...
What You'll Own
- Inbound lead engine: Build and run the content, SEO/GEO, paid, and thought leadership programs that generate qualified inbound leads for the partnerships team. You carry a pipeline number.
- Content and editorial: Architect the blog strategy, editorial calendar, case studies, benchmark reports, and proprietary research that make the agency brand buyers trust.
- Founder thought leadership: Ghostwrite and manage LinkedIn, podcast, and conference programs for the CEO and senior leaders.
- SEO and Generative Engine Optimization: Make the website a lead-generation asset, not a brochure, including optimization for AI-surfaced answers.
- Paid acquisition: Run our own paid programs on LinkedIn, Meta, and Google to drive qualified leads.
- Website and conversion: Own the website as a conversion engine, including messaging, CRO, and landing pages.
- Email and lifecycle: Build nurture sequences, gated assets, and re-engagement programs.
- Events and field marketing: Own our presence at ShopTalk, Possible, Cannes Lions, and industry conferences.
- Team building: Hire and manage a small, high-output marketing team of content writers, paid specialists, designers, and contractors.
What We're Looking For
- 5-7+ years in B2B marketing, with the majority spent at a performance or digital marketing agency.
- You have personally built an agency's marketing engine: the content programs, SEO, paid acquisition, and thought leadership that drove measurable inbound leads. Not inherited it. Built it.
- Direct accountability for a marketing-sourced pipeline or lead-gen number as a named OKR or KPI.
- Hands-on across four or more channels (content, paid, SEO, email, CRO, events, PR). You can go deep on each, not just delegate.
- Experience managing a team of two to five or more (content writers, paid specialists, designers).
- You can point to specific, measurable results, for example: "I built the content program that generated X leads per quarter" or "I grew marketing-sourced pipeline from $Xm to $Ym."
- AI-native. You use Claude, ChatGPT, or similar tools daily as part of your workflow.
- Exceptional writer who ships fast and iterates weekly, not quarterly.
Bonus Points
- You have marketed a marketing agency specifically
- Experience with Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) and AI Overviews.
- A track record of building founder or executive thought leadership programs on LinkedIn.
- Existing relationships with Digiday, AdWeek, Modern Retail, or similar trade press.
- NYC-based or willing to travel to NYC monthly.
This Role Is Probably Not For You If...
- Your experience is exclusively in-house at a single brand for 10+ years with no agency background.
- You are a pure brand marketer with no performance or demand gen credentials.
- Your background is entirely at a holding company (Publicis, WPP, Omnicom, Dentsu) without independent agency experience.
- You cannot name a specific piece of marketing work you personally created and the results it drove.
- You need a six-month planning cycle before shipping anything.
