• Drive pipeline growth by working with global teams and agencies on paid media, and by creating and executing local campaigns, events, webinars, PR, and other conversion-focused programs.
• Support channel partners by developing and executing co‑marketing initiatives that improve partner engagement and sales, while managing the local MDF program.
• Build brand awareness in Japan through PR, events, and localized content such as case studies.
• Oversee the regional marketing budget to ensure optimal resource allocation and strong ROI.
• Apply analytics and KPIs to evaluate campaign performance and refine strategies.
• Collaborate closely with Sales teams (Country Leader, Account Executives, Channel Account Managers, BDRs) as well as regional and global marketing to ensure coordinated execution.
• Travel up to 10%.

Who You Are:
• A highly resourceful and independent marketer with at least 8 years of experience and a strong record of delivering impactful results in fast‑moving environments.
• Fluent in Japanese and English, with deep insight into Japan’s market dynamics, cultural nuances, and customer behavior.
• Comfortable managing weekly calls with teams in the UK, Singapore, and the US; experienced in both direct sales and channel marketing.
• Skilled in developing and supporting channel co‑marketing programs.
• Energetic, professional, and polished in communication.
• Strong writing, speaking, and presentation abilities.
• A collaborative team player who works closely with sales to understand their goals and challenges and translate them into pipeline‑ and revenue‑driving actions.
• Data‑driven, able to analyze performance metrics and optimize strategies accordingly.
• Experienced in digital marketing, demand generation, and event management, with a proven history of driving pipeline.
• Familiar with marketing and sales tools such as Groove, SFDC, and Marketo.
