About the Role
Planful is seeking a Senior Product Marketing Manager to shape how the market understands our products and how our field sells them. This individual will join a two-person product marketing team with a wide surface area across the core platform, Planful AI, and Consolidation Premium, owning analyst relations, the competitive program, launch execution, and field enablement. This person will also partner closely on messaging, positioning, and launch narrative.
You are a strong writer and a sharp cross-functional operator, comfortable owning outcomes rather than slices of them, and energized by a small team where the work is broad and the ownership is real.
Responsibilities
- Support the cross-functional side of product launches across the Planful platform, including timelines, dependencies, launch readiness, and the internal communication that keeps product, sales, CS, support, and solutions consulting aligned.
- Build the launch model once and run it every time, so each launch is more efficient than the one before it.
- Build and deliver enablement for new product launches, including training materials and internal assets.
- Own analyst relationships end-to-end, including the briefing and inquiry calendar.
- Run Magic Quadrant and similar evaluation submissions from evidence gathering through final response, and bring analyst findings back into positioning and roadmap conversations.
- Own the competitive intelligence program across the FP&A and CPM landscape, building automated monitoring so the team spends its time on synthesis rather than collection.
- Turn competitive insights into internal enablement materials and assets.
- Extend enablement to the partner channel, and partner with the solutions consulting team where subject matter depth is needed.
- Own the marketing side of pricing execution, including consumption-based models, SKU setup, Deal Desk partnership, and field enablement on pricing.
- Work directly with product teams on launch sequencing, helping translate complex products into language sellers can use.
- Support messaging, positioning, launch narrative, and external speaking.
What You Bring to the Table
- 4+ years of experience in B2B software product marketing, including running launches end to end.
- Experience on a team small enough that you owned the outcome rather than a slice of it.
- Track record with analyst relations, including formal evaluation submissions.
- Experience with pricing and packaging mechanics, or a strong appetite to learn.
- Strong cross-functional project management skills, with the discipline to hold a launch together when the work gets deep.
- A track record of building enablement the field actually uses.
- Comfort working directly with product and engineering on technical products.
- Strong writing, with the judgment to know when something is not good enough yet.
- Comfort operating without perfect inputs or heavy process.
- Background in finance, FP&A, or accounting, or experience marketing to finance buyers, preferred.
- Willingness to present externally through webinars, customer sessions, and events, preferred.
Why Planful
- 2 Volunteer days per year, Birthday PTO, and quarterly company Wellness Days
- 3 months supply of diapers and meal deliveries for the first month of your Maternity/Paternity leave and generous parental leave
- Talkspace access and mental health support
- Annual company-wide gatherings held in cities like San Diego, Denver, Palm Springs, and Vegas!

Prepare your application
Use the description above to assess your fit for Planful. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.
Match requirements to evidence
Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.
Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.
Check the working arrangement
Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.
Review before submitting
Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.
Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.
Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
