About the role

Are you a process-driven individual with a passion for optimizing the journey from lead to customer? Do you thrive on bringing teams together and setting global standards for success? We're on the lookout for a talented GTM Ops Associate to join our international GTM Operations team, based in the Netherlands, with a hybrid work model allowing for a few days a week in our vibrant Rotterdam office.

This role is pivotal in bridging the gap between Marketing and Sales, ensuring seamless operations from initial interest to successful engagement. You'll play a key part in defining global best practices for inbound demand follow-up and outbound prospecting, leveraging your operational expertise to drive efficiency and effectiveness across the board.

Description:

As a GTM Ops Associate, you will be instrumental in optimizing our go-to-market strategies by focusing on BDR Operations and Marketing Campaign Operations.

Your work will directly contribute to enhancing our lead management processes, empowering our Business Development Representatives (BDRs) with top-tier tools and strategies, and fostering strong cross-functional collaboration. While experience with our exact tech stack (Marketo, Salesforce, ZoomInfo, Cognism, SalesLoft) is a plus, your operational mindset and ability to learn new tools are what truly matters!

• Explore and implement AI-driven process optimizations to automate low-value tasks, freeing up our teams for more strategic work.

Marketing Automation & Campaign Operations:

• Support Global & Regional marketing in launching campaigns to drive Demand Generation (big emphasis on email marketing as a channel).
• Implement best practices in email marketing & campaign marketing (A/B testing, email nurtures, landing page templates, web form design etc.).

Cross-Functional Alignment:

• Act as the primary operational liaison, fostering strong communication and collaboration between Marketing and BDR leadership.

You’ll win us over by having the following qualifications:

• 2-3 years of experience in revenue, marketing or sales operations.
• Demonstrated experience with CRM systems (Salesforce preferred).
• Strong process documentation and project management skills, with an eye for detail.
• A proven ability to work cross-functionally and collaboratively with Sales and Marketing teams.
• An analytical mindset, with a knack for driving metrics-based improvements and making data-informed decisions.

Bonus:

• Experience with sales engagement platforms such as SalesLoft.
• Exposure to enrichment tools like ZoomInfo or Cognism.
• A proactive problem-solver who is eager to take initiative and drive change.
