Demand Generation Marketing Manager

Role Description

We’re looking for a hands-on Demand Generation Marketing Manager who thrives at the intersection of strategy, analytics, execution, and people leadership.

This is a marketing operations and demand generation role — not a creative or brand marketing position. The ideal candidate is a business-minded marketer who understands how marketing activity translates into pipeline, revenue, and business results. They are equally comfortable digging into performance data, evaluating how marketing dollars are invested, communicating insights to executive leadership, and rolling up their sleeves to get work done.

Think of this person as a business athlete and player-coach: highly organized, analytical, collaborative, adaptable, and driven to deliver results. They can zoom out to develop strategy and zoom in to troubleshoot campaign performance, improve processes, manage projects, or coach a team member through execution.

Success in this role requires strong judgment, curiosity, accountability, and the ability to connect marketing performance to broader business priorities across multiple markets. The right person will bring structure to complexity, turn data into decisions, and continuously improve how demand generation programs are planned, measured, and optimized.

If you enjoy analyzing what’s working, understanding where marketing dollars are going, building better systems, developing people, and solving problems alongside your team, this role is built for you.

ON-SITE POSITION MON-FRI, IRVING, TX

Core Responsibilities

• Lead, coach, and develop a small team of approximately 3–5 marketing professionals, balancing people leadership with hands-on involvement in execution.
• Own demand generation performance across campaigns and initiatives, monitoring KPIs and identifying opportunities to improve lead generation, conversion, efficiency, and overall marketing contribution.
• Dig into marketing performance data to understand what is working, what isn’t, and why — translating findings into clear actions and recommendations.
• Evaluate and manage marketing investments, ensuring marketing dollars are allocated thoughtfully based on performance, business priorities, and market-specific needs.
• Communicate marketing performance and insights to executive leadership, providing clear, concise recommendations that support business and investment decisions.
• Partner cross-functionally with senior leadership and teams across the organization to align demand generation priorities with business objectives.

• Balance competing priorities and adapt quickly as business needs, market conditions, and performance data change.
• Foster a culture of accountability, continuous improvement, collaboration, and results.
• Use data and business context — not assumptions — to make decisions and recommend where marketing resources should be focused.
