Role
Who you are
- An excellent communicator in written and spoken English and German — native-level German is required to interact with users, develop messaging, and communicate internally
- Proven track record of developing value propositions, messaging, and sales materials
- 7+ years of experience in B2B technology marketing and/or sales — prior product marketing experience is a plus
- Experience working in B2B settings and with sales teams in Germany is preferred
- Experience in payments or financial services in Germany is preferred but not required
- Ability to operate independently and use subject matter expertise to resolve most issues, taking risks and escalating where necessary
- Focused on results — balancing customer needs and business goals to propose ambitious growth strategies
- Good leadership and influencing skills; able to drive cross-functional alignment and progress towards impactful outcomes with limited resources
- This role will require some business travel within Europe
- It’s not expected that any single candidate would have expertise across all of these areas—we’re looking for candidates that are particularly strong in a few areas, and have interest in developing new capabilities
What the job involves
- Our Product Marketing team’s mission is to generate customer insights that inform Stripe’s product strategy, lead go-to-market for our suite of products, and create and execute campaigns to drive product growth
- Product Marketing is a highly cross-functional role at Stripe, partnering closely with Product and Engineering, Sales, Design, Developer Relations, and Communications to name a few
- Different from many other Product Marketing teams, our team works across the entire product lifecycle, from helping shape the product, to driving launch and commercialization, to growing product adoption post-launch
- As a regional product marketer and core cross functional partner on marketing and go-to-market teams, you will champion the needs of our German users and grow our market share in Germany. You will connect the dots between product, sales, and marketing to enable our growth while delivering successful user outcomes
- Lead the delivery for our product marketing priorities across sales and marketing to drive our growth in Germany
- Be a subject matter expert in the needs of our current and prospective target users through user research, competitive landscape understanding, and deep product understanding
- Develop, deploy and maintain tailored value propositions and narrative messaging that resonates with local users to be used in creating marketing content, campaigns, and sales collateral in local language
- Drive high-quality launches and demand for products by working closely with a range of cross-functional teams including, but not limited to, product, sales, engineering, marketing, design, communications, and partnerships
- Enable the efficiency and productivity of our sellers in the region through knowledge transfers on products and solutions, market-specific content and tools, and support in field deployment
- Partner with country marketing teams to deliver relevant content programmes for priority events, integrated marketing campaigns, and ongoing demand generation
- Monitor key business indicators around product adoption, usage, satisfaction to identify blockers and solutions to optimize our growth funnel in the market
Our take
Stripe, nowadays a FinTech giant, spent the first few years since its founding building up its payments business, which primarily consisted of providing an API to eCommerce businesses so that they could easily integrate a payments option in their apps or websites, where before there was none.
More recently, Stripe has started to accelerate its growth with a significantly larger range of financial services including cash advances and credit cards. They also plan to build incorporation services, fraud protection, and more, diversifying its revenue away from payments and differentiating itself from its competitors.
To further expand its position, the company is looking to triple its presence in Ireland, and extend its services to countries with vast customer potential, including Brazil and India. Its latest venture, coming atop significant new funds, is to partner with OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT - a win-win collaboration that will monetize OpenAI’s flagship products and at the same time enhance Stripe with GPT-4, as it moves forwards with intentions to "build the payments foundation for tomorrow's AI economy."
