Who we’re looking for:

We're looking for aSenior Product Marketing Manager who will own the market strategy forAttendance Plus. You'll go deep on the chronic absenteeism problem itself—the research, the district budget cycles, the competitive landscape—and use that expertise to shape where Attendance Plus goes next.

You'll own positioning and messaging for the entire attendance line, translate the needs of attendance clerks, counselors, and district administrators into a narrative that resonates through the whole buying committee, and make the call on which capabilities deserve a full go-to-market push versus a quiet rollout. You'll partner directly with the Attendance product and leadership team on packaging, pricing, and competitive strategy for the line.

Success in this role means the market understands why Attendance Plus is different, our go-to-market teams know how to win attendance conversations, and customer and competitive insights consistently shape what we build and how we take it to market. You'll be accountable not just for launches but also for helping to grow Attendance Plus as a business.

- Partner directly with the Attendance product and leadership team on pricing, packaging, and segmentation for the line, bringing the voice of the market into build and prioritization conversations.
- Identify the highest-potential segments, use cases, and growth opportunities for Attendance Plus and develop strategies to reach them.
Drive go-to-market for roadmap
- Work with GTM teams to execute plans for new Attendance Plus capabilities, determining the level of investment a release earns based on its strategic weight to the line.
- Define launch goals and success metrics, then use adoption, customer feedback, field insights, and market response to evaluate performance and inform what comes next.
- Turn win/loss analysis and customer research into clear insights on why we win, where we lose, and what those insights mean for our product, positioning, and go-to-market strategy.
Enable the field on attendance
- Partner with Sales Enablement to help the Sales and Customer Success teams win attendance opportunities, including competitive battlecards, buyer-specific messaging, ROI and outcomes framing, and objection handling.
- Equip Sales and Customer Success teams to confidently communicate new capabilities, positioning shifts, competitive differentiation, and responses to objections.
Lead proactively and drive alignment
- Drive alignment across the Attendance product team, Sales, Customer Success, Marketing, and leadership, bringing stakeholders together around a shared understanding of the market and a clear narrative for how we win.
- Surface strategic risks and opportunities early and turn those insights into clear recommendations.
