Help Datadog reach and engage priority talent through targeted campaigns, programmes and experiences. In this hands-on role, you will build relationships with internal and external audiences and help people connect with relevant opportunities at Datadog..

You will own agreed programmes from planning through delivery and evaluation. Working with the Director of Employer Brand, your regional counterpart in NYC, Recruiting, Employer Brand and Content, and Growth Marketing, you will turn hiring priorities into focused campaigns, useful experiences and clear next steps for participants.

Redesigning programme delivery through AI-native, agentic workflows is a core responsibility. You will turn effective approaches into regular practice and demonstrate improvements in quality, speed and delivery capacity.

At Datadog, we place value in our office culture - the relationships and collaboration it builds and the creativity it brings to the table. We operate as a hybrid workplace to ensure our Datadogs can create a work-life harmony that best fits them.

What You’ll Do:

• Build and deliver an agreed portfolio of engagement programmes aligned with hiring priorities. Define the audience, objectives, budget and success measures. Anticipate peaks and quieter periods in event demand, balance events with ongoing programmes, and recommend what to prioritise, reduce or stop within available capacity.
• Redesign engagement programme delivery with agentic workflows. Build, test and improve workflows that use AI agents for segmentation, nurture, follow-up coordination and reporting. Set human review and approval points with relevant partners, protect candidate and employee data, and measure improvements in quality, turnaround time and delivery capacity.
• Run internal marketing and network activation programmes.
• Build segmented nurture journeys that connect talent communities, event attendees and relevant past candidates, including strong candidates whose timing is not yet right. Personally write, build and send newsletters and email campaigns using agreed messaging and assets.
• Plan and deliver targeted events and experiences, including referral sessions, small-group dinners, executive experiences and virtual formats.
• Create practical briefings, playbooks and activation materials that help recruiters, hiring managers and employees use Datadog's talent messaging, content and networks.
• Deliver agreed campaigns with Recruiting and People partners that help employees discover relevant internal opportunities.
• Coordinate programme delivery across regions with your counterpart and Recruiting partners. 
• Own the delivery and improvement of engagement programmes. Partner with Brand and Content to apply talent messaging and adapt assets for your audiences. Work with Recruiting on candidate engagement and progression.
• Work with Creative, Field Marketing, Community and business leaders where programmes require their involvement.
• Establish baselines and evaluate programme performance. Work to improve tracking and use the findings to improve programmes and recommend where to invest, adapt or stop.

Who You Are: 

• Hands-on experience in recruitment marketing, lifecycle marketing, community marketing, or recruiting solutions, with programmes you have personally built, launched and improved.
• Experience delivering targeted events and integrated campaigns for clearly defined audiences.
• Practical experience with audience segmentation, nurture journeys and CRM or marketing automation tools.
• Strong writing and creative judgement, including the ability to turn a message into useful campaigns, emails and activation materials.
• Experience managing programme budgets, timelines and competing priorities, with clear recommendations when capacity is constrained.
• Confidence interpreting performance data, understanding attribution limits and using evidence to influence stakeholders.
• The ability to build relationships with senior partners, secure commitments and coordinate delivery across teams and regions.
• The ability to rethink programme delivery, test AI agents and automation, and turn effective approaches into repeatable workflows with appropriate human review.
