Senior Marketing Strategy & Operations Manager
Fivetran
From Fivetran’s founding until now, our mission has remained the same: to make access to data as simple and reliable as electricity. With Fivetran, customer data arrives in their warehouses, canonical and ready to query, with no engineering or maintenance required. We’re proud that more organizations continue to leverage our technology every day to become truly data-driven.
About the Role
Fivetran is the one platform for moving the world’s data from every source to every destination to power every innovation.
We’re looking for a Senior Marketing Strategy & Operations Manager to join our Marketing team and lead the orchestration of go-to-market (GTM) planning, execution, and cross-functional marketing operations. This role sits at the heart of how we bring campaigns, launches, and programs to life—working directly with the CMO and senior marketing leadership to turn vision into action.
You’ll be responsible for designing repeatable GTM operating rhythms, supporting strategic initiatives across the Marketing team, and instilling a culture of experimentation and measurement. This is an ideal opportunity for someone with a blend of operational rigor, stakeholder savvy, and a strong interest in helping a high-performing team scale its impact.
This is a full-time, hybrid position based in Oakland, CA with two in-office days per week. Our hybrid work model offers a blend of remote flexibility and in-person collaboration, including two days in the office each week to connect and build as a team.
What You’ll Do
- Lead GTM Planning and Execution: Design and manage GTM operating cadences, including planning cycles, launch execution, and retrospectives. Ensure clarity of priorities, deliverables, and timelines across Product Marketing, Demand Gen, Sales, and other stakeholders.
- Drive Cross-Functional Alignment: Act as a central strategy & operations leader, ensuring that cross-functional contributors—from Content and Brand to Product and Sales Enablement—are aligned, informed, and executing to plan.
- Own High-Impact Programs: Lead the program management of key launches, strategic events (e.g., Snowflake Summit), brand campaigns, and special projects that require tight coordination, crisp execution, and measurable outcomes.
- Track Progress and Performance: Establish clear milestones and success metrics for launches and marketing programs. Monitor execution and report regularly on performance to senior leadership, surfacing insights, risks, and opportunities for improvement.
- Improve Team Effectiveness: Identify and implement process improvements to increase operational efficiency across the Marketing team. Optimize tools, meeting structures, templates, and documentation to support collaboration and clarity.
- Support Marketing Leadership: Partner closely with the CMO and VP-level leaders on ad hoc strategic initiatives, board/investor meeting prep, and key internal communications.
What We’re Looking For
- 5+ years of strategy & operations experience, ideally within B2B SaaS or data/analytics environments
- Demonstrated experience running cross-functional product or campaign launches with clear results
- Operationally minded: You’re structured, organized, and think in frameworks—but know how to flex as priorities evolve
- Clear communicator: Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to synthesize information for both executive and IC audiences
- Marketing-savvy: Familiarity with modern marketing practices across brand, digital, content, product marketing, and sales enablement
- Data fluent: Comfortable with using performance metrics, pipeline data, and testing results to guide programs
- Self-directed and accountable: You take ownership and drive momentum even when you don’t have all the answers
- Experience with tools such as Asana, Jira, Airtable, or equivalent project management and collaboration platforms
Bonus Skills
- Experience working in the data integration or cloud analytics space
- Familiarity with the tools and metrics used by growth marketing, demand gen, and sales teams
- Strong POV on how to run effective meetings, drive accountability, and communicate status updates
