  • Define, track, and measure KPIs, leverage data insights & trends to optimize marketing programs that deliver upon overall company goals.
  • Partner with the Demand Gen team to develop content that provides value to our customers.

What you’ll have

  • You have 10+ years experience in B2B lifecycle or customer marketing, with 4+ years managing high performing teams.
  • You are results-oriented with an exceptional track record of developing successful B2B retention marketing programs.
  • You have strong analytical skills; able to create strategies based on data and customer insights.
  • You are highly motivated, capable of working independently, while also able to build strong internal relationships and drive consensus on initiatives
  • You have a passion for the customer experience. You develop a deep understanding of customer challenges and needs and work to drive improvements across all business teams that touch the org buyer.
  • You have familiarity with CRM technology including Marketing Automation platforms and CRM tools.

Life at Udemy

We aspire to be as vibrant and dynamic as the communities we serve, as inquisitive as those who use our platform, and as revolutionary as the future we strive to open for everyone. Here are some of the things we love about life at Udemy:

  • We’re invested in creating an inclusive environment that welcomes a diverse range of backgrounds and experiences. From creating employee resource groups, ensuring we’re a Fair Pay Workplace, and building a flexible work culture, our belonging, equity, diversity, and inclusion (BEDI) initiatives always put our people first. We want you to be able to bring your authentic self to work because when we all do, we’re better for it.

  • Learning is what we do – inside and out. Our Learning & Development team is second to none, helping ensure your journey is one of continuous progression. You’ll also have unlimited access to Udemy courses, monthly UDays (meeting-free professional development days), and a generous annual professional development stipend.

  • Our reason to exist is to revolutionize learning – that calls for taking risks and learning from failures. Whether it’s our hackathons (a company-wide effort to envision new possibilities for our product) or sharing our prototypes, we see experimentation as a crucial step on the path to success.

  • We’re committed to creating world-class employee experiences and are proud of the recognition of this by Great Place to Work.

Of course, the best thing about being part of Udemy is knowing your work makes a difference for people and organizations around the world. You’ve got the skills; why not use them to help others develop theirs?
