Senior Manager, Growth & Demand Generation
Ignite Reading
Today, 67% of students and 82% of low-income students can’t read at grade level by the end of third grade. That’s when students are supposed to go from learning to read to reading to learn. It’s America’s number one education crisis and we know how to fix it. Ignite Reading delivers one-to-one virtual tutoring that teaches every student the foundational skills they need to become a confident, fluent reader. We pair students who need extra support with expert reading tutors who provide daily, 15-minute, Science of Reading-based instruction that rapidly closes their decoding gaps. We focus on the foundational reading skills—phonics, phonemic awareness, and sight words—kids need to master so they can decode a sentence. Students in Ignite Reading’s program achieve over 2 weeks of reading skills growth per week of instruction, and notably all students achieve the same outstanding results including students with IEPs, multilingual learners, students of color and those receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Ignite Reading is a mission-driven public benefit corporation. We believe we can do well for our team members and shareholders while we solve one of the nation’s biggest challenges. We believe we will be more successful with a diverse team and are seeking candidates who have lived experience related to social justice, diversity, equity, and inclusion. Your Role As Ignite Reading's Senior Manager, Growth & Demand Generation, you'll own the strategy and hands-on execution of marketing campaigns that capture and nurture B2B leads across multiple channels.

The ideal candidate thrives in fast-paced startup environments, is a true team player, and has a demonstrated track record of driving qualified district administrator leads in the K-12 market. We are looking for someone who brings both creative instinct and analytical rigor — someone who can develop compelling content that tells Ignite Reading's story and also build the frameworks to methodically test and optimize campaigns. Reporting to the VP of Marketing, this is an individual contributor role — there are no direct reports. You will play a critical part in opening doors to districts across the country as Ignite Reading works toward its mission of teaching one million students to read.

Analytics & Reporting - Partner with system ops to build and maintain HubSpot dashboards that provide clear visibility into funnel performance, campaign ROI, and pipeline contribution. - Deliver weekly reporting to marketing and sales leadership with actionable insights and optimization recommendations. - Use data to continuously test and learn, implementing new strategies to improve campaign effectiveness across all channels. Qualifications - 7 years of experience in B2B acquisition, growth, or demand generation marketing in a high-growth, fast-paced startup environment. - Demonstrated track record of developing and implementing a variety of lead generation campaigns using webinars, emails, events, SEO, SEM, gated content, and more. - Deep, hands-on proficiency in HubSpot — including building and managing campaigns, audience segmentation, lead scoring, workflow logic, A/B testing, and reporting infrastructure. - Experience using and experimenting with AI, automation and technology tools to enhance efficiency and quality of work - Experience partnering with sales teams to coordinate and deliver multiple marketing programs to hit ambitious goals. - Results-oriented with a strong focus on achieving revenue, conversion, sales, and other marketing goals. - An exceptional writer with a discerning sense for compelling storytelling and developing content programs to deliver valuable content to customers. - Ability to use metrics to manage programs and measure success. - Strong organizational and project management skills; comfortable operating across multiple workstreams simultaneously. - A team player who is comfortable in the weeds of execution and can also contribute to strategic thinking. - Ability to take in feedback and use it as an opportunity to refine and improve. - Experience in the K-12 edtech or education market is a plus.
