Strategic and Sophisticated Marketing Automation Manager Wanted
Salary range: $100,000 to $120,000 base salary per year, plus bonus
Are You the Missing Piece?
If flawless execution, clean data, and next-level segmentation make your heart beat faster, this might be your perfect match. A nationally recognized brand is searching for a Marketing Automation Manager to take ownership of its Salesforce Marketing Cloud ecosystem and help scale a rapidly maturing email program that reaches 100,000+ customers each week. If you bring a strong QA lens to everything from recurring order emails to large-scale event follow-ups, keep reading.
This is not a “learn-on-the-job” kind of role; they need someone who already speaks fluent Marketing Cloud. You’ll build multi-step journeys, tighten QA, improve automations, and help elevate the connection between Marketing and Sales. Think SQL wizardry, journey optimization, and AMPscript mastery, plus the satisfaction of knowing your sends are flawless, targeted, and driving measurable impact. Attention to detail is key here. You will embody the automation engine that makes every customer touchpoint smarter and more seamless. You’ll help evolve how the company thinks about MQLs, journey design, and data-driven personalization, while also cleaning up processes and ensuring accuracy at scale.
You’ll get to collaborate with a sharp, creative, and cross-functional team that values strategy, precision, and continuous improvement while working on innovative projects together, like pilot programs in Salesforce Agent Force and Data Cloud.
This is a fully remote role with some quarterly domestic travel (about 10%).
