Director of Network Marketing and Enablement

About the Role

This is Perform[cb]'s first dedicated marketing role focused entirely on the publisher and affiliate partner side of our marketplace, the Outcome Engine. Now, in addition to strategically finding ways to bring the some of the largest and most sophisticated brands in a variety of verticals to the Outcome Engine, the marketing team is tasked with engaging and bringing in even more distribution partners (media buyers, publishers, app-based monetization platforms, programmatic buyers, reward platforms, and similar performance-marketing channels). You'll be the one leading that charge.

This is an individual contributor role reporting directly to the Head of Marketing. You'll be responsible for defining the strategy and executing the programs that make the Outcome Engine the destination for performance-driven partners who leverage proprietary distribution, technology, data, and creative expertise to drive outcomes. That means building from scratch in some areas, managing and improving what already exists in others, and always thinking about what will resonate with a savvy, scaled partner audience that knows the industry inside and out.

This role is a growth opportunity for someone who has a solid foundation in performance marketing and wants to own and build a function. You don't need to have all the answers on day one — but you do need to understand the space and be excited to define what partner and network marketing looks like at Perform[cb].
