Lead Product Marketing Manager, Apollo.io

• 7–10 years of product marketing experience at B2B SaaS, with a clear spike in narrative, positioning, and content. Strong content marketers with deep PMM chops also welcome — but this role lives in the PMM seat
• You write. Not "can write when needed" — you write. You have a portfolio of long-form, exec social, narrative docs, or launch copy you'd put on a billboard. You can make a CEO sound like the smartest version of themselves
• Cross-functional translator. You're the connective tissue between product, sales, brand, comms, and exec — you've worked directly with CEOs and CROs and you know how to turn their instincts into shipped artifacts
• Strong POV on AI go-to-market. You don't need to be an AI doomer or zealot, but you have a real take on how AI is reshaping B2B GTM, and you've started showing it through your own work
• AI-native operator. Comfortable with Claude as a daily tool; you've built or used custom skills, prompts, or workflows that meaningfully scale your output. Bonus for AirOps, Tofu, Opus Clip, or anything beyond ChatGPT
• Builder mentality. Comfortable shipping V1 docs, running point on cross-functional asks, and saying no to kitchen-sink PMM requests. You've worked in environments where you set the system, not inherit it
• Distribution sensibility. You think about how a narrative spreads — through exec voice, influencer networks, analyst conversations, owned channels — not just what you're publishing
• High agency, high bar. You can move from C-suite narrative work to writing a LinkedIn post for a launch in the same day, and you hold yourself and your partners to a tight quality bar

Desirable

• We're hiring a Lead PMM, Narrative & Content to own that gap. This is a true PMM + content hybrid: you'll work with Apollo’s exec team to build narratives that break through the noise to position Apollo as the default AI native system for GTM teams
• You’ll also own operationalizing that narrative by owning the content strategy that gets this narrative into market - long form research based content, exec thought leadership, and proof points that shift how the market sees us. You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with our CEO, CRO, CMO, and product PMMs
• This is a senior IC role for an experienced product marketer who's just as comfortable writing the LinkedIn post as building the messaging house behind it
• If you've ever been the person quietly translating an exec's half-formed idea into the narrative everyone ends up repeating — this role is built for you
• Drive the perception shift. Build and execute the strategy that moves Apollo to "AI-first GTM platform" in the minds of upmarket buyers, analysts, and the broader GTM community
• Run the company content engine. Set the editorial POV, prioritize the bets, and ship the work — original research, defining frameworks, exec thought leadership, blog flagships, video, podcast moments. You're as much an editor as a writer
• Operationalize narrative into launches. Partner with product PMMs to map product to narrative, so every Tier 1/2 launch lands in the larger story instead of as a one-off feature drop
• Be the ghost behind exec voice. Own the strategy and (sometimes) the words for CEO, CRO, and CMO social, keynotes, and high-stakes external moments. You’ll work with external writers but you own the strategy
• Translate technical into magnetic. Take dense product capability (MCP, agents, the platform architecture) and turn it into stories upmarket buyers, operators, and analysts can't stop quoting
• Build the proof point machine. Partner with customer marketing to turn customer wins, usage data, and category benchmarks into the evidence layer behind every narrative claim
• Scale yourself with AI. Fluency with Claude (and the workflows we've built around it) is required. You should be the kind of PMM who treats AI as core infrastructure, not a side tool
• Measure the vibe shift. Brand pulse, Gong call language, analyst conversations, inbound demand signal — track the perception KPIs alongside content performance
