Snr Marketing Manager

**Overview**
Skynamo is looking for a demand generation-focused marketing manager with experience in marketing to manufacturers, distributors and wholesalers to assist to define, develop and implement integrated marketing campaigns.

- Degree or equivalent professional experience
- 5+ years’ experience in marketing
- 3+ years’ experience in marketing to manufacturers, distributors and wholesalers
- Experience in selling software or technology to manufacturers, distributors and wholesalers is an advantage

- Track record of developing successful nurturing campaigns to move leads through the funnel
- Network of suppliers and specialists to provide niche skills such as design, PR, video design, etc.
- Understanding of digital marketing (SEO, PPC / CPC, social media)
- but it’s not the only marketing competency you offer
- Excellent / Good writing skills
- Superior project management and interpersonal skills
- A team player attitude that works well with others

**What you can expect from Skynamo**
- Competitive salary and healthy bonus structure
- Being a part of a team that has a measurable and direct impact on Skynamo’s success globally
- A company that values self-direction, fun, coffee and a culture that is hard to beat
