We are seeking a Senior Manager, Demand Generation (Capture) to join our client's high-growth team. In this role, demand generation is viewed as a single, connected motion: Create builds demand, and Capture converts it into paying customers. As the senior operator in the Capture seat, you will turn in-market intent into revenue, control the budget behind it, and build the engine that drives scalable growth.
You will set the capture strategy, manage spend, and remain fully hands-on: building campaigns, running experiments, and executing the trial-conversion program yourself. You will work closely with your Create counterpart to ensure both halves of the growth engine operate in sync. If you are a strategic thinker who thrives on owning outcomes and building programs from the ground up, this is the role for you.
This is a hybrid role requiring the talent to work in the client's office in downtown Toronto 1-2 days per week.
Responsibilities
- Own the Capture Motion: Drive strategy and execution for competitor and high-intent search, review sites, retargeting, bottom-funnel paid campaigns, and the trial-conversion program.
- Budget & Strategy Management: Manage channel budgets, test into new acquisition channels early, and dynamically reallocate spend based on real-time performance.
- Funnel & Economic Optimization: Own CAC, payback periods, and trial-to-paid conversion rates, utilizing these metrics to scale winning initiatives and cut underperforming ones.
- Competitive Strategy: Analyze buyer comparison behaviors and market dynamics to ensure Capture strategies win against key competitors.
- Cross-Functional Alignment: Partner seamlessly with the Create lead to feed conversion insights back into top-of-funnel demand generation.
- Trial-Conversion Ownership:
Design and optimize the trial-to-paid user journey—including lifecycle email, content, and in-product prompts—in collaboration with Web Strategy, Product Marketing, and Marketing Operations.
Requirements
- 7 years of experience in B2B SaaS demand generation, with a balance of high-level strategy and hands-on execution.
- Adaptability: High degree of comfort navigating change, ambiguity, and evolving priorities in a fast-paced setting.
- Deep experience managing Capture channels, including high-intent search, review sites, retargeting, bottom-funnel paid media, and lifecycle conversion programs.
- Proven track record of building and scaling trial-conversion or product activation programs (via email, in-product prompts, or both) that measurably impact core metrics.
- Strong data fluency across key revenue metrics (funnel conversion, CAC, payback, and attribution) to drive strategy.
- Demonstrated experience with competitive analysis and understanding B2B buyer evaluation processes.
- Strong budget judgment with a track record of allocating for high ROI.
- Technical proficiency with HubSpot, Claude, and the Adobe Performance Tools / Martech Stack.
- Accountability to business outcomes (trial signups and trial-to-paid conversions) rather than channel-level vanity metrics.
