We are building our Account-Based Marketing function from the ground up — and this is the role that defines it. As our first and founding Principal ABM Strategist, you will own the strategy, execution, and evolution of both our Strategic (1:1) and Scaled (1:few / 1:many) ABM programs across our most critical accounts and segments.
This is a high-impact individual contributor role with direct visibility to senior leadership. You won't just inherit a playbook — you'll write it. You'll sit on the Revenue Marketing Team and partner closely with Sales, Operations, Product Marketing, and Growth to build a best-in-class ABM motion that drives pipeline, accelerates deals, and deepens account engagement at scale.
If you're energized by building from scratch, working across the full funnel, and owning outcomes end-to-end — this role was made for you.

Founding Program & Function Building
What We're Looking For
-
You have 5+ years of B2B marketing experience, with at least 3 years of dedicated ABM program management across both Strategic and Scaled motions
-
You've built ABM programs from scratch — you know what it takes to stand up a function, and you've done it before
-
You're deeply fluent in the ABM tech landscape (6sense, Demandbase, Terminus, etc.) and have hands-on experience operationalizing at least one enterprise ABM platform
-
You have a strong command of intent data, firmographic/technographic segmentation, and digital advertising tactics (LinkedIn, display, content syndication) in service of ABM
-
You understand the full revenue funnel and can credibly partner with Sales — you speak their language, you know what pipeline looks like, and you can connect ABM activity to business outcomes
-
You're an exceptional communicator and storyteller — you can translate complex, multi-channel programs into clear narratives for Sales, Leadership, and cross-functional partners
-
You bring a builder's mindset: you're comfortable with ambiguity, energized by whitespace, and skilled at creating structure where none exists
-
You're analytically strong — you can work with data, define your own measurement frameworks, and derive insights that shape strategy
Bonus Points If You Have
-
Familiarity with sales engagement platforms (Outreach, Salesloft), CRM (Salesforce), and MAP (Marketo, HubSpot)
-
Background in Field Marketing, Demand Generation, or Product Marketing that complements the ABM skill set
-
Experience in a founding or early-stage marketing function at a scaling company
