Partner with Sales/Admissions teams to optimize the MQL-to-conversion process and improve lead quality

What we're looking for5+ years of experience in marketing operations, growth, or lifecycle roles with direct ownership of campaign creation, activation, and analysis
Strong hands-on experience with Salesforce Marketing Cloud and Webflow, with working knowledge of Salesforce CRM, Google Analytics, Google Ads, and Meta platforms
Strong analytical and systems-thinking abilities with experience designing experiments, interpreting data, and building processes from scratch
B2C marketing experience in trust- and education-heavy funnels, ideally at smaller companies (100-300 employees) where you were the marketing owner or on a small team
Solid copywriting skills with ability to write campaign emails and web copy
Bias toward action and ownership—comfortable being both strategic and hands-on, working independently as a quiet executor
Why this role may not be a fitYou're expecting or desiring to manage a team. This is an independent contributor role for the foreseeable future.
You're primarily a creative copywriter looking for a content-focused role rather than marketing operations and systems work
Your experience is exclusively at large enterprises with specialized roles rather than scrappy, do-it-all environments
You're seeking a B2B SaaS role and lack experience with consumer marketing, education-based funnels, or slower-to-adopt markets
You prefer to delegate technical implementation rather than logging into platforms and building systems yourself
You're uncomfortable with heavy analytical work, experiment design, or translating data into recommendations
Primer is a mission-first company. We believe our mission is the highest-leverage way we can create positive change. In service of that, we keep work centered on mission execution and avoid social or political activism at work that’s unrelated to the mission. If that energizes you, we’d love to see you apply.
