Who You Are

You're someone who can walk into a running function and tell, quickly, what's actually working versus what's just familiar - and you act on that distinction instead of leaving it in place out of politeness.

You build with AI rather than just directing others to use it: your own workflows for content, scoring, and outbound have already changed shape around agentic tools, and you have a real point of view on where AI search and signal-based marketing are taking the discipline next.

You hold a high bar for what “good” looks like, including for a team you inherited rather than hired, and you'd rather have a hard conversation early than let underperformance run quietly.

What You'll Do / Scope of Work

  • Own the demand generation function's pipeline and revenue number, budget, and existing team from day one.
  • Diagnose the current channel mix and team within the first 60-90 days, and make the call on what to keep, retool, or retire.
  • Shift the function's measurement and programs from a legacy MQL/form-fill model toward signal- and intent-based marketing.
  • Launch at least one channel beyond what's already working - GEO/AEO, dark social, community-led growth, or agentic outbound.
  • Embed AI and agentic tooling into core workflows: content production, lead scoring and routing, outbound sequencing, and reporting.
  • Partner with Sales leadership on funnel definitions, SLAs, and conversion quality, and report regularly to the CPO on performance and resourcing needs.

What You've Done

  • Modernized or turned around an existing demand generation function - not only built one from scratch.
  • Personally used AI or agentic tools to rebuild a marketing workflow, with a specific before/after you can describe.
  • Launched a channel outside the standard paid/SEO/social mix in the last two years, win or lose.
  • Carried a pipeline or revenue target and made real budget reallocation calls based on evidence, not instinct alone.
  • Led a team of specialists or directors, including through a leadership transition.
