Support ABM and key-account programs through account targeting, intent data activation, and opportunity influence tracking. Optimize form strategy, progressive profiling, and conversion flows to balance CPL efficiency with lead quality and account fit. Own end-to-end performance reporting from first touch through SQL, Opportunity, and revenue contribution. Partner with Marketing Ops to implement UTM governance, platform tagging, and privacy-compliant tracking across China domains and channels. Develop dashboards and insights on CPL, CAC, pipeline velocity, win rate, and ROI by channel, segment, and region. Design and run A/B and multivariate tests across creatives, landing pages, bidding strategies, audience segments, and messaging. Ensure campaigns and data practices align with China data privacy, hosting, and advertising regulations. Partner with Legal, IT, and Marketing Ops on consent frameworks, data residency, and platform compliance. Maintain brand and messaging alignment with global standards while enabling China-market relevance and speed. Partner with Sales, SDRs, RevOps, Product Marketing, and Regional Leadership to align demand programs with pipeline priorities and account strategies. Serve as the China performance marketing SME for global GTM planning, forecasting, and quarterly business reviews. Mentor junior marketers and agency partners on performance best practices and experimentation culture. Who you are Minimum qualifications: 5+ years of experience in performance marketing, demand generation, or growth marketing in B2B, SaaS, FinTech, or enterprise technology environments.
