Role
Who you are

- Prior experience bringing new solutions to market as part of a B2B SaaS company
- Strong experience enabling customer-facing teams sell to mid-market and enterprise companies
- Natural storytelling skills with a gift for writing and the ability to create compelling content that speaks to customer pain points
- Proven ability to be a voice of the customer with significant experience leading research and competitive analysis to influence GTM strategy and product roadmaps
- Strong project management skills, ability to inspire cross-functional teams (from an executive-level to individual contributor-levels), spearhead complex plans, and present with ease to wide-ranging audiences, including internal stakeholders, webinars, trainings, and industry events

What the job involves
- Checkr is looking for a Senior Product Marketing Manager who will play a critical role on the team, driving awareness and adoption of our background check services and platform features
- This is a role for someone who has a versatile mix of analytical and storytelling skills, and is strategic with positioning and messaging
- If you enjoy working cross-functionally with marketing, product, sales, and solutions, and are comfortable wearing multiple hats (including research, GTM program management, sales enablement, content creation, and more) this opportunity might be a great fit for you
- Develop the high-level product positioning and messaging for Checkr products, with focus on our criminal search products, our motor vehicle record search products, and possibly other product areas
- Drive the go-to-market strategy for your products, and lead the end-to-end product launch process, managing cross-functional implementation and post-launch measurement, demonstrating impact
- Understand and support our sales channels; train teams on the problems we solve for our buyers in this segment; develop internal tools and external collateral and enable them on how and when to use it – playbooks, talking points, and presentation decks
- Conduct customer and market research to support the overall go-to-market strategy, identify new business opportunities, conduct pricing analysis, and assess market demand
- Be a key enablement partner on our product and competitive differentiation, creating deliverables such as product overview decks, competitive battlecards, and messaging guides
- Work with the product team to inform and influence the product strategy and roadmap, based on market demand, competitor intelligence, and customer insights
Our take
Checkr addresses the unpleasant and time consuming process of background checks so that companies using on-demand employees can make safer, more informed hiring decisions in less time. Background checks are a critical part of the hiring process, and CEO Daniel Yannisse noticed that they were painfully slow, resulting in loss of work for candidates and productivity downturns for employers.
Before Checkr entered the market in 2014 with its innovative AI technology and a solid $50m in venture capital funding, companies were waiting upwards of two weeks for their checks. Checkr substantially reduces this time frame and has grown to receive a $5 billion valuation.
Checkr has accelerated growth by making several highly advantageous acquisitions of competitor companies GoodHire and Inflection. As the world of work embraces diversity and inclusion, the company announced an end-to-end service for candidates wishing to expunge their criminal records, furthering the company’s ‘fair chance’ mission and clearing 1000s of candidates for free since 2021. New products launched at the end of 2023 include Checkr Pay (providing access to payment right after a shift) and Checkr Onboard (unified onboarding processes), exemplifying how Checkr is keeping pace with a rapidly changing, flexible, and mobile-first workforce.
