Enterprise Demand Generation Manager

Afresh, the AI platform for grocery, began by tackling the most complex problem in the industry: fresh, and has evolved into the core AI platform for grocers.

By leveraging proprietary AI designed for high-volatility environments, we empower partners like Albertsons, Meijer, and Wakefern to drive smarter decisions across their entire enterprise.

Following record-breaking 70% revenue growth in 2025, we have scaled to 6 enterprise-grade solutions, with solutions live in over 10% of the U.S. grocery market. Our platform now orchestrates billions of decisions from the store floor to the distribution center and prevented over 200 million pounds of food waste last year alone.

If you're looking for a role where your work directly translates into massive scale and social good, and you want to be part of the team that defines how the world eats, there is no better time to join us.

About the Role

We're seeking an Enterprise Demand Generation Manager to define and drive how Afresh shows up in the grocery market. This is a high-ownership role at the center of our go-to-market: you'll set the channel strategy, build end-to-end programs, and partner closely with sales to turn engagement into pipeline. We're looking for someone to help build a modern, AI-powered demand engine — with the autonomy to make real calls about where to invest, what to kill, how to reach customers at every stage of the sales cycle, and how to win.

Reporting to the Head of Marketing, you'll partner closely with Revenue Leadership and Sales, and manage an event coordinator responsible for pre-event logistics. You'll also work in tight partnership with our PMM team — they shape our positioning and content; you own how it reaches the right buyers, in the right format, at the right moment.

What You'll Do:

Demand Strategy & Channel Ownership

Set and execute the demand generation strategy across paid media, email, lifecycle, ABM/ABX, content distribution, and integrated campaigns

Make smart investment calls across channels — recommending allocation, prioritizing spend, and partnering with the Head of Marketing to maximize pipeline impact

Build account-driven GTM programs that engage a defined, named-account buyer set — designed for scale through AI-driven personalization, enrichment, and signal-based activation

Flex programs across top, middle, and bottom of funnel as business needs shift

Events & Webinars

Set the strategy for our event program — trade shows, field activations, and executive dinners — with measurable pipeline outcomes

Manage an event coordinator who runs event logistics; you will own on-site execution

Own our webinar program end-to-end, including content development, speaker coordination, promotion (co-owned with media partner), and redistribution — a meaningful opportunity to shape Afresh's voice across the funnel

Partner with PMM, content, and sales to design distribution plans that get the right content in front of the right buyers at the right moment

Analytics & Reporting

Evolve our marketing stack alongside RevOps — bringing your perspective on the AI tools, agents, and workflows that should sit at the center of a modern demand engine

Lead our approach to signal-based automation, lead scoring, and intent-driven campaign activation

Define KPIs and build full-funnel reporting (with RevOps) that connects HubSpot, Salesforce, and our website into a clear view of pipeline performance and ROI

Report on demand performance with clear, synthesized insights and recommendations

Who You Are:

Required Experience

6+ years of demand generation experience at an enterprise B2B SaaS company, ideally one selling into a defined, named-account market

Direct experience setting demand strategy and making investment calls — channel mix, allocation, and prioritization decisions

A clear point of view on the modern AI-native marketing stack — you've proven out tools and workflows in your own work and bring informed recommendations to the team

Hands-on experience building and running campaigns in HubSpot, on LinkedIn, and Google, including copy, tracking, and reporting — not solely through agencies

Demonstrated experience leading Tier 1 events end-to-end, including booth strategy, executive dinners, and on-site sales coordination, with measurable pipeline impact

Experience running webinar programs end-to-end, including content development and distribution

Breadth across demand channels — paid acquisition, email and lifecycle, ABM/ABX, webinars, content distribution, web optimization, and marketing analytics

Strong writer across campaign copy, email, landing pages, and webinar promotion

Skills & Attributes

Strategic operator who sets the plan, defends it with data, and brings a clear point of view to leadership and sales

Creative eye and editorial judgment — has taste in campaign concepts, copy, and visual execution, and knows when a program is on-brand vs. generic.

AI-native operator — actively shapes how AI is used in their work, brings informed recommendations on the modern stack, and treats tooling as a competitive advantage

Thoughtful within constraints — designs precise, high-impact programs for a niche, defined buyer set rather than relying on volume-based playbooks

Excellent cross-functional partner — particularly with sales — and able to align stakeholders behind a clear plan
