Role Overview

As the Senior Director of Marketing Strategy, Operations & Analytics, you will be the strategic right hand to the Chief Marketing Officer and the operational backbone of the entire marketing organization. You will design and own the operating system that allows a global marketing function to move with speed, precision, and accountability: setting the strategic agenda, running the planning and decision-making cadence, and translating the CMO's vision into clear priorities, plans, and measurable outcomes.

This is a role for a senior operator who thrives in ambiguity: someone who can frame the strategy, build the plan, align the stakeholders, and drive execution to closure, all while building a data-driven marketing culture from the ground up. You will own the marketing analytics engine, the MarTech infrastructure, the planning discipline, and the cross-functional relationships that connect marketing to revenue. As the CMO's most trusted partner, you will bring structured thinking and a steady hand to the organization's biggest decisions, hardest problems, and highest-priority bets. And as Aeris scales, you will scale the team, the processes, and the operational rigor right alongside it.

Responsibilities

Marketing Operations & Performance Analytics

• Build and own Aeris's global marketing operations function, ensuring seamless execution of GTM strategies across markets and teams.

• Champion marketing automation and MarTech stack optimization, ensuring the right tools are in place, fully leveraged, and continuously improving campaign effectiveness and operational efficiency.

Strategic Planning & Execution

• Translate the CMO's vision into a clear, coherent strategy for the marketing organization: framing the hardest problems, developing options and recommendations, and helping leadership decide where to focus and where to place its biggest bets.
• Drive high-impact strategic initiatives end to end, leading annual and quarterly planning and ensuring marketing priorities, resources, and investments are tightly aligned with Aeris's revenue and growth objectives.
• Define, implement, and track marketing OKRs and KPIs, building clear accountability across teams and creating the metrics, reporting cadences, and leadership narratives that show how marketing is progressing against business goals.
• Drive cross-functional collaboration across the C-Suite, marketing, sales, finance, and product teams to accelerate business growth and ensure GTM alignment is built in, not chased.

• Build and maintain strong relationships with executives, partners, and vendors, ensuring marketing initiatives are aligned with Aeris's broader business objectives and that leadership has clear visibility into marketing's impact.
