• Own account targeting, list segmentation and audience prioritization in close partnership with sales.
• Build ABM programs, outbound sequences and multi-channel campaigns.
• Develop messaging frameworks, offer strategies and outreach structures for outbound efforts.
• Operationalize GenAI in the creative process: build and continually refine prompt-libraries in ChatGPT/Claude/Gemini to accelerate copywriting, persona-specific value props and A/B test variants.
• Spin up low-/no-code automations (Zapier, n8n, HubSpot Workflows) that connect Storyful's data feeds, AI services and marketing channels, reducing manual work and improving speed-to-market.

Sales Collaboration & Lead Management

• Maintain attribution, reporting and pipeline tracking through HubSpot and Salesforce.
• Support event follow-up, webinar conversion and post-campaign sales-acceleration activities.
• Deploy AI-powered enrichment (e.g., Clearbit + OpenAI functions) to auto-populate firmographic/intention signals for faster follow-up.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Collaborate with the Marketing Coordinator on asset build-out, list uploads and platform execution.
• Work with the Content Marketing Manager on outbound messaging, prospecting content and sales-enablement materials.
• Integrate Storyful's intelligence into commercial outreach.
• Lead quarterly "AI enablement" workshops to upskill marketing & sales colleagues on effective prompt-writing, LLM QA and responsible-AI practices.

Campaign Optimization & Performance Management

• Monitor performance data, analyses conversion metrics and continuously optimize targeting and messaging to improve results.
• Own dashboards and KPIs tied to lead volume, qualified-pipeline contribution and sales alignment.
• Use Python/SQL or Looker Studio to query LLM-generated experiments, identify winning prompts and automate roll-outs.

Generative-AI & Automation Stewardship (new section)

• Serve as Storyful's internal "prompt engineer" for growth marketing—design, test and version control prompts that power AI copy, image or video generation.
• Evaluate new AI/automation vendors (LLM APIs, RAG frameworks, orchestration layers) and manage pilots, security reviews and ROI analysis.
• Champion ethical best practices for GenAI use, ensuring brand safety, bias mitigation and compliance with data-privacy policies.
• Your should have a strong AI experimental mindset.
• High curiosity about AI Automation.
• Experience implementing and iterating on marketing/AI workflows, even if you haven't owned a full "AI automation" function before.

Qualifications

• 2-4 years in B2B demand generation, growth marketing, ABM or sales development.
• Direct experience running outbound programs and lead-gen campaigns.
• Strong understanding of B2B funnels, pipeline development and sales-marketing alignment.
• Experience with HubSpot, Salesforce, LinkedIn Navigator, Clay and modern marketing-automation platforms (e.g., HubSpot Workflows, Marketo, Iterable).
• Excellent written communication skills, plus demonstrated ability to craft, iterate and document AI prompts that outperform baselines.
• Analytical mindset with ability to interpret performance data and optimize for results.
• Comfortable working cross-functionally with marketing and sales teams.
• Hands-on proficiency with at least one GenAI stack (OpenAI/Anthropic API, LangChain, Hugging Face Pipelines) and familiarity with Python or JavaScript for simple automations/APIs.
• Experience configuring low-code workflow tools (Zapier, n8n, Make, UiPath) to orchestrate multi-step marketing processes.
• Interest in media, content marketing, audience intelligence or communications sectors strongly preferred.
• Bachelor's degree in Marketing, Communications, Journalism, Business or related field.
