Role Description
Our customers decide what to adopt and buy in settings we canโt always be in: exercises, headquarters, symposiums, and the working groups around them. Trust is built in person, and the right conversation at the right event can open an account or expand one. Onebrief is hiring a Field Marketing Manager to own that work.
In this role, you will turn the events, sponsorships, and account programs around our target accounts into a deliberate plan:
-
Determine which events matter, why, who we want to meet, and what happens afterward.
-
Work with Sales, Growth, and Customer Relations to prioritize named accounts.
-
Provide sellers with the materials they need.
-
Ensure every conversation is followed up and tracked into the pipeline.
-
Bring discipline to how we measure field activity.
Our field presence is growing as we expand across the services, combatant commands, federal agencies, and commercial markets. You will help decide how we show up, with real ownership from the start.
