About the Role

As Senior Director, Marketing, you will be ClassWallet's senior marketing leader. You will report to the Chief Product Officer and own the full marketing function: brand, product marketing, demand generation and account-based marketing, events, marketing content, marketing operations, and the corporate website.

ClassWallet is moving to a product-led operating model, and this role is central to that shift. You will turn what we build into a clear market story, then turn that story into qualified pipeline with state agencies, school districts and other public-sector clients. You will partner closely with Sales leadership on pipeline and with Product Management on every launch. Product Strategy & Insights owns market analysis, pricing analysis, win/loss and proposals; you take new markets forward from the go/no-go decision.

This is a player-coach role for a builder. You will set the strategy, shape and develop the team, and roll up your sleeves on the work itself.

Responsibilities

• Own the marketing strategy, annual plan and budget across people, programs, events and agencies.
• Set pipeline targets jointly with the Chief Revenue Officer, and own marketing-sourced and marketing-influenced pipeline as the team's headline number.
• Own ClassWallet's brand, positioning and messaging, using market and win/loss insight from Product Strategy & Insights, and keep the story consistent across the website, sales materials, proposals and events.
• Build and run an account-based marketing program with Sales, aimed at state agencies, school districts and other public-sector buyers and timed to budget cycles, legislative sessions and procurement windows.
• Own the event and trade show portfolio end to end: decide where ClassWallet shows up, run it well, and prove the return.
• Lead launch marketing under our tiered launch model, partnering with Product Management from business case through launch.
• Once ClassWallet commits to a new public-program market, lead its go-to-market, building on the market analysis from Product Strategy & Insights, through to the first reference clients.
• Own marketing content, including case studies, thought leadership and creative writing produced with an outside agency, and supply the Proposals team with approved messaging and proof points.
• Run the corporate website as a pipeline channel, with a focus on conversion, SEO and accessibility.
• Build marketing operations and reporting the business trusts, starting with attribution and a pipeline baseline in your first 90 days.
• Hire, develop and lead a high-performing team, with clear goals and accountability.
• Select and manage agencies and contractors for paid media, video production, web development, creative writing and surge capacity.
• Report marketing performance to the CPO and executive team, and contribute to board reporting.

Requirements

• 10+ years of B2B marketing experience, including 5+ years leading marketing teams.
• Experience marketing to government, education or other public-sector buyers, where sales cycles are long and formal procurement such as RFPs is the norm.
• A track record of building or rebuilding a marketing function at a growth-stage company.
• Proven ownership of a pipeline target in partnership with sales leadership, with results you can quantify.
• Hands-on experience running account-based marketing and events-led programs.
• A strong product marketing foundation: positioning, messaging and launches.
• A player-coach who is as comfortable doing the work as leading it.
• Data-driven, and fluent in marketing automation, CRM platforms and marketing attribution.
• An excellent writer and presenter, able to communicate with executives, public officials and families alike.
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience.

Preferred:

• Experience in fintech, payments, govtech or edtech SaaS.
• Experience taking a product into a new vertical or public-program market, such as human services or workforce programs.
• Experience helping a company move from a sales-led to a product-led operating model.
