Job Title: Industry Marketing Lead, Retail & Consumer Goods
Location: United States (Austin, New York City, San Francisco, Chicago)
Position Overview:
Retail moves fast, and retail executives don't buy engagement tools. They buy partners who can help them grow revenue, protect margin and keep customers coming back. As Industry Marketing Lead for Retail & Consumer Goods, you know the industry from the inside and understand what retail marketers are up against. As a senior strategic partner to Sales, Customer Success, Demand Generation, Product Management, Partnerships and company leadership, you'll own how Braze shows up in this market and multiply the impact of the teams around you. You'll set the strategy, write the industry narrative and positioning, lead retail product launches, create the plays the field can run, and develop the solutions that address the retail marketer's challenges.

Own the retail narrative and point of view
- Develop and evolve Braze's retail and consumer goods narrative, including narratives for key segments.
- Position Braze with the executives who decide: CMOs, eCommerce and digital leaders, CRM and loyalty leads, and other C-suite leaders.
- Lead retail product and package launches, including positioning and messaging, and pair them with retail insights and use cases. Show how our new products solve real retail problems like abandoned carts, peak-season pressure, loyalty and post-purchase.
- Partner with Competitive to bring retail-specific competitive context into our positioning, and co-build retail competitive takeaway plays.
Be the field's retail expert
- Be a voice for Braze with customers and at select Retail industry moments, in partnership with Content and Events.
- Bring field and customer insight back to Product, Product Marketing and leadership to shape priorities.
- Collaborate on key enablement and education deliverables that help educate the broader organization on the Retail industry.
Build plays that scale

- Support a small set of strategic pursuits and executive business reviews. Use what you learn there to improve our plays and content.
- Shape the retail message for key moments on the calendar, including major industry events and the holiday season, in collaboration with our Events, Demand Generation and Content teams.
Turn customers and partners into proof
- Partner with Customer Success, Sales and Customer Marketing to find, develop and publish retail customer evidence (case studies, quotes, speakers, references).
- Co-build joint retail plays with Partner PMMs and Partnerships, across technology and services partners. Help bring partners into our Retail roadmap.
What Success Looks Like:
You will help Braze win more retail deals, faster and at higher value, and grow a healthy and durable Retail business.

In your first 90 days, you'll get to know our retail customers, sellers and partners, and lead retail messaging and partner storylines for Shoptalk this spring.
Who You Are:
- Retail native. Ideally you come from consumer marketing at a retailer or brand, or from consulting or strategy work serving retailers.

- Executive storyteller. You can turn complicated technology, including AI, into plain language a CMO cares about.
- Builds to scale. You'd rather create a play 50 sellers use than a deck one seller uses.
- Brings people along. You build trust across Sales, Customer Success, Product Marketing, Partnerships, Events and Content, and you push back when something's off.
- Uses AI at work. You use AI tools to research and build faster, and you can explain AI concepts like agentic, generative and predictive to customers.

- Strong executive presence; experience speaking at industry events is a plus.
- BA/BS degree required; MBA a plus.
