If you want to grow, stretch, and do work that truly matters, Gong is the place to do the best work of your career

Gong is looking for a Senior Director of Growth Marketing to lead our Organic, Paid Media, and Paid Search functions. This is a pipeline generation role first: you'll own the strategy and results across our paid and owned channels, and you'll be measured on the pipeline and revenue those channels produce

What's changed is how that pipeline gets built. Buyers increasingly discover and shortlist vendors through content, AI-driven search, and channels well outside a traditional demand generation funnel, so we want a leader who treats earning attention there as a direct driver of pipeline, not a separate initiative running alongside it. That means bringing a creator's instincts to this work alongside the instincts of a traditional growth leader: a real point of view on what earns attention today, hands-on experience building it, and enough range across organic, paid, and web channels to know where to place the bet

This is fundamentally a leadership role, not an individual-contributor one. But we've found that leaders who've done the work themselves are better at coaching a team to do it well

• Paid Search — our largest growth investment, and the channel with the most existing operational maturity
• Paid Media — Linked In, Display (via Demandbase), and You Tube, roughly equal in weight to each other and collectively comparable in size to Paid Search
• Organic & AI Search — SEO, plus AEO/GEO (answer- and generative-engine optimization): owning our visibility, citation rate, and share of voice inside AI answers (ChatGPT, Anthropic, Google AI Overviews/AI Mode, Copilot, Gemini) as buyers increasingly research and shortlist vendors there before they ever reach our site
• Earned channel influence — Reddit, You Tube, Wikipedia, analyst platforms like Gartner, and other sources that shape how AI engines and buyers perceive Gong; you won't own execution here, but you'll partner closely with the teams who do (PR, AR, Social) to make sure our presence there is deliberate
• Website partnership — you'll shape strategy and priorities for web initiatives in close partnership with the Web team, though they won't report into you. In the AI era, that includes making sure the site is machine-readable and extractable (clean structure, schema, answer-shaped content) so LLMs can retrieve and cite it — not just optimizing for human UX

• 15+ years in growth or performance marketing, including 5+ years managing managers (not just individual contributors) with real ownership of Paid Search, Paid Social, and SEO/AEO
• Experience owning a growth budget with a scale of more than $20M annually…
