Director, North America Field and Partner Marketing

The Challenge

We are looking for a strategic, commercially minded Director, North America Field & Partner Marketing to lead the evolution of field marketing into a pipeline-focused growth engine for North America.

This role will own the North America field marketing strategy and execution, partnering closely with Sales to translate business priorities, market opportunities, and regional needs into integrated programs that create pipeline, accelerate opportunities, and drive revenue. You will lead a team of field and partner marketers and oversee a portfolio spanning regional campaigns, executive engagement, events, third-party programs, and partner co-marketing.

A critical part of this role is transforming the way we think about field marketing. We are moving beyond an event-centric model toward a full-funnel, data-driven approach where marketing investments are measured by their contribution to pipeline and revenue. You will establish the strategy, operating rhythms, and measurement discipline needed to understand what is working, optimize investment, and build scalable programs that deliver predictable business impact.

You will also lead North America partner marketing, developing strategic co-marketing programs with technology, channel, and ecosystem partners to extend our reach, engage new audiences, and create incremental pipeline.

The ideal candidate is equally comfortable shaping strategy with senior Sales leaders, analyzing pipeline performance, and working hands-on with their team to build and launch programs. You are a strong operator and people leader who can connect strategy to execution and bring a clear commercial lens to every marketing investment.
