  • Align full-funnel programs with GTM priorities and customer journeys to resonate with developers and technical decision-makers.
  • Partner cross-functionally with Brand, Product Marketing, Sales, and Customer Success to ensure digital investments support business goals.
  • Champion the voice of Elastic's existing customer base across digital and campaign channels.
  • Partner with Renewals, Customer Success and Product to develop lifecycle programs, expansion campaigns, and advocacy initiatives that deepen retention, accelerate upsell, and turn customers into vocal champions.
  • Lead and develop a global organization of marketing leaders responsible for Digital, Paid Media, Campaigns, Email Marketing, and Lifecycle Marketing.
  • Serve as the leader for Digital & Campaigns within Elastic's broader GTM organization.
  • Own the measurement framework connecting digital engagement to business outcomes.
  • Define key KPIs—from acquisition to pipeline and revenue—using data to guide investments, prioritize opportunities, and improve performance.
  • Manage and optimize global digital marketing budgets to maximize growth, efficiency, and business impact.

Qualifications

  • 15+ years leading B2B marketing organizations across digital marketing, integrated campaigns, demand generation, and GTM strategy.
  • 7+ years leading global teams, building high-performing organizations, and developing leadership talent.
  • Proven enterprise SaaS GTM success, with deep knowledge of complex buying journeys, sales motions, and technical/executive marketing.
  • Strong understanding of digital ecosystems, including paid media, martech, analytics, attribution, and AI-enabled marketing.
  • Experience leveraging generative AI, predictive analytics, and automation to enhance marketing effectiveness and business outcomes.
  • Exceptional executive presence with a track record of influencing senior stakeholders and driving cross-functional global change.
