Job Description

About the job
Truework is on a mission to create trust in every financial transaction. Our core product, Truework Income, provides access to crucial employment and income information needed for mortgage loans, apartment rentals, background checks and the like. We are disrupting a $5B+ industry, previously controlled by legacy credit agencies, with a better product and intense customer focus. We handle hundreds of thousands of income and employment verifications every month, and continue to grow our market share in the mortgage lending and tenant screening markets.

We are looking for a Product Marketing Manager to join our team, reporting directly to the CPO. This is a critical role that collaborates cross-functionally to grow revenue and market share. In this role, you will help launch market-leading products and services that change how companies access applicant information. You will have an opportunity to craft a new market category, influence go-to-market strategy, and partner with all stakeholders at Truework to win in a space worth billions of dollars annually.

As a Product Marketing Manager you’ll help accelerate Truework’s growth by shaping markets’ perception through core marketing activities to meet our business goals. The right candidate for Truework will know that their most crucial output is a coherent strategy informed by market and customer needs. The second critical output is a cohesive set of actions to coordinate across GTM, EPD, and Marketing.

The ideal candidate must first be an ambassador for the customers and the product vision at Truework. Internally, they are the market and customer experts. They will bring insights to inform everything from product iteration to go-to-market talking points. Externally, they are expected to craft precise positioning and turn it into clear and consistent messaging repeated across Product, Marketing, and Go-To-Market functions.

At Truework, a successful candidate will recognize that excellence is achieved through the rigor and inspiration of applying genuine new ideas mixed with good frameworks. We value people who are relentless in defining outcomes and tracking work towards these outcomes but also help grow the organization through light but rigorous processes to create accountability.

Finally, we are looking for a strategist. We need a loud voice in the room with strong opinions loosely held in the face of new information, who will avoid consensus-based decisions. This person must be multidisciplinary and capable of charting a long-term vision of how the market and product will evolve together to drive success.

What we’re looking for:

5+ years experience in Product Marketing
Prior experience working at a tech startup
A passionate product storyteller, able to create enthusiasm for what we’re building and high-quality enablement across the entire organization
A Product Marketing geek, passionate about modern product marketing frameworks and tools who seeks to impact through their applications
Experience operating comfortably and effectively in the B2B/B2B2C space
Experience doing discovery and customer interviews to uncover market insights
A believer in using metrics in addition to customer insights to drive decisions, set goals, and hold other functions accountable
Someone obsessed with delivering results through clearly defined outcomes and would rather think of impact instead of activities
Experience developing go-to-market strategy, product positioning, and messaging
Direct experience supporting with B2B sales teams
Self-starter who can lead projects independently

At Truework, you will be responsible for:

Leading customer interviews through a continuous discovery process
Developing and executing product positioning, messaging, and enablement for new and existing products
Conducting market research to understand industry trends, customer needs, and the competitive landscape
Building relationships with customers to develop deep customer empathy and an understanding of their needs
Collaborating cross-functionally to lead product launches and project managing toward successful execution
Creating collateral, including pitch decks, data sheets, case studies, and whitepapers, to enable sales
Analyzing sales and deal performance to inform data-driven decisions to improve messaging and enablement
Collaborating with Product Management to influence product roadmap to align with market needs
Developing thought leadership content to establish Truework as a leader
Presenting research findings and marketing content to other teams and executives
Crafting your own outcomes and tracking progress toward it
Thinking big and acting small when needed. This means having a clear long-term vision while iterating towards consumer value each cycle. You don’t let teams get hung up or overinvest in the pursuit of a false sense of perfection.
