Marketing Operations Manager

Fivetran Fivetran · Data AI · Costa Rica · Remote · Marketing Department

This role is for a Marketing Operations Manager at Fivetran, focusing on lead management and revenue handoff. The manager will own the lead scoring and routing logic, MQL definitions, SLA design, and BDR tooling workflows. The role requires experience with marketing automation platforms like Marketo and CRM systems like Salesforce, and involves partnering with sales leadership.

What you'd actually do

  1. Build, maintain, and calibrate the lead scoring model in Marketo, using BDR feedback and closed-won/lost data to keep it predictive rather than stale
  2. Own lead routing logic and governance in LeanData — match rules, ownership logic, and routing paths — in partnership with the Sr. Marketing Operations & Technology Manager on platform administration
  3. Own MQL definitions and the marketing-to-sales handoff process, including SLA design and ongoing SLA monitoring
  4. Own lead/contact lifecycle status management and lead source governance
  5. Own inbound and partner-sourced lead triage/routing processes
