Chief Market Officer (CMO)

Location: Remote - United States

About the Role

Transmit Security protects large enterprises from fraud and identity attacks. Our platform spans Mosaic (SaaS identity and fraud orchestration), FlexID (on-prem IAM), standalone fraud prevention and detection, and Agentic Trust, which secures AI agents that act on behalf of customers. Our technology is recognized by analysts, and our buyers are CISOs, fraud and financial crime leaders, and identity and digital channel owners. The product is ahead of the brand.

What you will do

• Build the marketing function hands-on. Hire the critical roles first (marketing operations, demand generation, analyst relations) and add headcount only as results prove out.
• Own revenue marketing: set a reconciled pipeline target by region and source, and speed up open pipeline while building for the following year.
• Fix the handoff with Sales: a joint SLA for speed to first touch, a clear MQL definition, and no lead left behind.
• Build an AI-first operating model: connected workflows across CRM, marketing automation, and shared knowledge, with AI-assisted campaigns, follow-up, and reporting.
• Run a buying-group approach across a large enterprise committee, using events, digital, ABM, partners, and analyst channels, and cut programs that do not convert.
• Create and lead the Agentic Trust category, and position four distinct offerings and sales plays for their buyer personas.
• Own analyst relations, communications, and the brand refresh, directing outside firms while owning the outcome.
• Establish a board-ready scorecard of 5 to 7 KPIs with Sales and Finance, with multi-touch attribution.
• Lead regional programs across North America, LATAM, EMEA, and APJ, and build customer and partner marketing that contributes to net revenue retention and co-sell.

What Success Looks Like

In 90 days:

• A team rebuild plan approved, with critical hires in motion.
• One reconciled FY27 pipeline target, split by region, source, new logo, and expansion.
• A joint Sales and Marketing SLA in place and the backlog of unworked leads cleared.
• An agreed executive scorecard, an evaluation framework for every event and program, and a win/loss program launched.

• Marketing-sourced pipeline at or above target, with measurable acceleration of open pipeline and a shorter deal cycle.
• A customer marketing motion contributing to net revenue retention.
• A refreshed brand and growing awareness among our target buyers.

What you bring

• Experience marketing enterprise B2B software at the $100M to $500M ARR stage, with large-enterprise buying committees.
• A track record of creating or leading a new B2B category.
• A disciplined revenue marketer who has owned a pipeline number jointly with Sales.
• A hands-on player-coach who has built a function lean, without layers of managers, and uses AI and automation personally.
• Strong command of marketing operations and measurement, including attribution and executive scorecards.
• Analyst relations, PR, and brand experience, including directing outside partners.
• Global experience, with North America as the priority market.
• Preferred, not required: identity, fraud, or security experience, or experience selling to CISO buying committees.

Who Thrives here

• You default to action and work at pace, comfortably and in person where it matters.
• You are strategic enough to push back and hands-on enough to build alongside the team.
• You have taste and concision, and you explain complex ideas in few words.
• You solve problems with leverage and judgment, not headcount.
