The posting
Reporting to: VP of Marketing Employment type: Contract Level: Manager Time commitment: Part-time, 20 hrs/week Location: Remote, US-based (or NY/SF office) Start date: ASAP (contract)
Role summary
The Channel Marketing Manager owns how Highwire's marketing reaches, moves and converts audiences across social, online events, email and CRM. This person sets the strategy for each channel, designs the lifecycle programs that carry a contact from first touch to sales conversation, partners with the internal paid media team on amplification, and reports on performance so leadership can see what drives pipeline.
The role works side by side with the Senior Marketing Coordinator, who leads execution across these channels. The Channel Marketing Manager sets direction, signs off on launches and brings the analytical depth that connects channel activity to revenue.
The role suits a hands-on marketer who is comfortable setting channel strategy and building the systems that deliver it. The contract period establishes the channel program and its reporting foundation, with the expectation of converting to a full-time role.

- Design lifecycle and nurture programs mapped to the buyer journey, including drip campaigns, nurture tracks by sector and persona, re-engagement campaigns and post-event follow-up.
- Build lead segmentation, lead scoring and lifecycle stage definitions with the growth team and marketing operations, so MQLs and SQLs move cleanly into the pipeline.
