[Hiring] Senior Manager, Go to Market Enablement @LinkedIn

Role Description

This role will be based in New York, NY, San Francisco, CA, or Chicago, IL or remotely.

At LinkedIn, our approach to flexible work is centered on trust and optimized for culture, connection, clarity, and the evolving needs of our business. This role may be remote or hybrid. At LinkedIn, hybrid roles are performed both from home and from a LinkedIn office on select days, as determined by the business needs of the team. Remote roles are performed from the designated home work location upon time of hire, and any changes to this home work location requires a review of remote status and approval.

We’re looking for a senior, strategic people leader to join LinkedIn Marketing Solutions (LMS) as Senior Manager, Go-To-Market Enablement for our Commercial Readiness team.

This leader will oversee a team of Enablement Leads responsible for designing and scaling global, product- and service-focused enablement programs that empower our customer-facing teams with the mindset, skillset, and toolset needed to deliver exceptional value to advertisers.

This role is responsible for defining and scaling a comprehensive enablement strategy that drives measurable business impact—accelerating product adoption, improving seller effectiveness, and ensuring consistent, high-quality execution across segments and regions.

You will operate as a key cross-functional partner, working closely with Sales Performance Consultant (SPC) leaders to ensure global programs are effectively translated into field execution. You will also partner with Product Marketing, Sales Operations, and the broader GTM Enablement ecosystem to align program strategy with business priorities.

You will own a portfolio of global enablement initiatives, establishing a unified strategy, operating rhythm, and governance model that ensures consistency, quality, and scalability across LMS.
