Essential Responsibilities and Duties

How will you help expand our impact as the Manager of Marketing Operations at BetterLesson?

We’re pursuing big goals this year, and we’re excited to keep scaling the marketing practice to help meet those goals.

We need you to help build the systems, processes, and reporting to power the data-driven decisions to optimize and maximize marketing impact and efficiency.

As our Manager of Marketing Operations, you’ll bring a deep understanding of best practices in pipeline architecture, marketing metrics, and the sales<>marketing partnership.

You’ll work closely with the VP of Marketing, Director of Marketing, Content Marketing Manager, and Product Marketing Manager to help the marketing team meet (and exceed!) its goals.

This will include a focus on the following core functions:

Go-to-market team tech stack: Be – or be ready to become – a HubSpot superuser, helping make our marketing happen and make the most of our marketing with smart automation and stellar reporting. Be proficient in helping HubSpot and Salesforce play well together to help power our sales and marketing teams’ efforts.
Marketing automation: Build, manage, and optimize workflow automation and sequences in support of marketing content and campaigns.
Pipeline architecture: Align our pipeline architecture with best practices and the reality of our customer journey in order to help us measure and optimize marketing pipeline volume, value, and velocity.
Marketing operations playbook: Own the marketing operations playbook as the source of truth for how our pipeline is architected, automated, measured, and reported on.
Pipeline performance: Construct, maintain, and improve HubSpot dashboards showing volume, velocity, and value of our pipeline by stages, source, and profile.
Marketing efficiency: Find and enact efficiencies in all aspects of marketing operations: automations, list building, use of contact properties, etc., to help the team execute faster, safeguard against inaccuracies, and implement personalization as we scale.
Marketing accuracy: Help ensure that the data on our marketing activities is clean and clearly shows us what’s helping us grow and what we can do differently.
Sales & brand enablement: Own our branded swag program to ensure the sales, CX, and marketing teams have in stock what’s needed to help make our brand tangible to our educators.
Continuous improvement: Always be on the lookout for ways to improve your own corner of the marketing team, the marketing team’s impact overall, and ultimately BetterLesson’s reach and impact overall.
Flexibility and agility: Potentially project manage a variety of projects in support of the marketing and sales machines – and track and report on the ROI for each. Our world is constantly changing. What else can you imagine for us? We can’t wait to hear your ideas.

Understand our mission, ecosystem of products and services, and increasingly diverse customer base.
Build relationships with key members of the BetterLesson team, getting especially acquainted with key members of the go-to-market team and how you can help.
Have learned our go-to-market goals, positioning strategy, marketing and sales practices, and tech stack.
Audit our marketing operations function, including pipeline structure, pipeline workflow, automations, automated nurtures, sequences, and conversion points; developed a point of view on how best to improve these to measure, report out, and optimize pipeline volume, value, and velocity.
Take ownership of the marketing playbook to help ensure scalability and repeatability.
Identify a few ideas for us to build or measure our marketing in new, better, or different ways.

Launch your first email campaign (in close collaboration with our VP of Marketing).
Take full ownership of marketing automation for sales enablement as well as marketing content and campaigns.
Establish tight partnerships with each person on the marketing team, and with key counterparts across the go-to-market team.
Proactively, consistently identify opportunities for us to improve our pipeline architecture, pipeline measurement systems and processes, and overall marketing operations practices.

By the end of the first year, who knows where you’ll be? BetterLesson is growing and we’d love for you to grow along with us.

Experience in edtech or in education can be a major plus, but is not a requirement
You believe in our mission and share our core values
You’re comfortable with change. You might even thrive on it. Startup life is about doing things we’ve never done before, inventing new ways of doing things other people already do, and constantly evolving as we grow.

We Can Offer You:

The opportunity to work with an awesome team to solve important problems.

About BetterLesson

BetterLesson empowers K-12 teachers to build a modern classroom: learner-centered, culturally responsive, and personalized to meet the needs of all students. Instead of the conventional one-size-fits-all professional development approach, BetterLesson supports educators with differentiated support across the school year - using a mix of self-directed online courses, remote 1:1 coaching, non-evaluative learning walks, and collaborative in-person and virtual workshops centered around targeted outcomes. All of our learning experiences are powered by the BetterLesson Lab, giving participants a centralized hub to measure outcomes of their learning and district leaders a complete picture of the impact of their professional learning program. We match each educator with a world-class coach and then leverage our technology to suggest research-backed teaching strategies aligned to their area of focus, measure impact on student learning, and improve teaching practice continuously through rapid iteration. This process leads to off-the-charts teacher love (our data shows teachers love BetterLesson more than Apple users love their iPhones), high administrator engagement, and, most importantly, dramatic teacher and student growth.

BetterLesson has raised over $30M of venture capital and grant funding, serves over 400 school districts, sees 850K+ monthly active users accessing our online lessons and strategies, and is expanding quickly.

We are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity, or Veteran status. We also consider qualified applicants regardless of criminal histories, consistent with legal requirements. We welcome and encourage people who are expecting and/or parents-to-be to apply to this or any other role at BL.
