H-1B Visa Digital Marketing Manager Jobs
Digital Marketing Manager roles qualify for H-1B visa sponsorship as specialty occupations requiring a bachelor's degree in marketing, communications, or a related field. Employers file the LCA with DOL before your I-129 petition, and most mid-to-large marketing teams sponsor regularly. The annual H-1B cap applies, so lottery timing shapes your start date.

The Team & Role
Gem’s marketing team is scaling fast, and paid digital is the engine behind our pipeline growth. This role sits at the center of our demand generation motion, owning the strategy and execution of Gem’s $1M+ annual digital advertising budget across Google Ads, LinkedIn, and emerging B2B channels.
You’ll report to the Head of Demand Gen and work shoulder-to-shoulder with campaigns, product marketing, content, SDRs, revenue operations, and sales. This isn’t a “set it and forget it” media buying role. You’ll build sophisticated, multi-channel programs that create and capture demand for an AI-first recruiting platform selling into TA leaders, recruiters, and recruiting ops teams at companies ranging from 30 to 5,000 employees.
The right person for this role is equal parts strategist and operator. You think in terms of pipeline and revenue, not just clicks and impressions. You’re deep in Google Ads and LinkedIn Ads. You’ve run account-based programs and know how to use intent data and enrichment tools to target the right accounts at the right time. You use AI tools daily to move faster, test more, and optimize harder. And you thrive in environments where you own the outcome end-to-end.
What You’ll Do Day-to-Day
- Own and optimize paid campaigns across Google Ads, LinkedIn Ads, and other B2B platforms, with full accountability for budget, targeting, creative, and performance
- Manage and allocate a $1M+ annual digital advertising budget across search, social, display, and ABM channels
- Build and execute account-based advertising programs using intent data and enrichment tools (we use Vector and Clay) to target high-value accounts through the buying journey
- Design and run structured testing programs (A/B, multivariate, audience, bidding) to continuously improve campaign efficiency and conversion rates
- Track, analyze, and report on pipeline-impacting metrics including CAC, CPS2, pipeline influence, and ROI on a daily, weekly, and quarterly cadence
- Partner with product marketing to align ad messaging with product positioning, launches, and competitive differentiation
- Collaborate with content and creative teams to develop high-performing ad assets, landing pages, and syndication programs
- Work closely with revenue operations to ensure clean data flow from ad platforms through Marketo and Salesforce, and accurate attribution tracking
- Align with SDRs and sales on targeting, messaging, and lead quality to ensure marketing-sourced leads convert at high rates
- Use AI tools to accelerate workflows: ad copy generation, audience research, performance analysis, creative iteration, and reporting automation
- Stay current with platform changes, industry trends, and emerging channels. Recommend and test new approaches
About You
- 5+ years of B2B digital marketing experience, with at least 3 years focused on managing paid channels (Google Ads and LinkedIn Ads required)
- Deep, hands-on expertise in Google Ads: search, display, remarketing, account structure, bidding strategies, and conversion tracking
- Deep, hands-on expertise in LinkedIn Ads: sponsored content, conversation ads, audience targeting, matched audiences, and ABM campaigns
- Proven experience building and scaling account-based advertising programs that deliver measurable pipeline results
- Experience using intent data or enrichment tools (e.g., Vector, Clay, 6Sense, DemandBase, Bombora, or similar) to inform targeting and campaign strategy
- Strong analytical skills with experience in marketing attribution (Bizible or equivalent), CRM reporting (Salesforce), and data visualization (Looker or similar)
- Comfort with marketing automation platforms (Marketo preferred) for lead flow, scoring, and campaign integration
- Demonstrated AI fluency: you actively use AI tools to improve campaign performance, whether for ad copy, audience analysis, reporting, or workflow automation
- Experience in B2B SaaS is required. HR Tech or recruiting industry experience is a plus
- Strong project management skills and ability to manage multiple campaigns and stakeholders simultaneously
- Startup or growth-stage company experience preferred. Comfortable with ambiguity, shifting priorities, and wearing multiple hats
Benefits
- Highly competitive salary & equity
- 10-year window to exercise your stock options
- Supportive Flexible Time Off program
- 16 paid holidays, including regular company-wide wellness days
- Best-in-class medical, dental & vision insurance
- $1,200 annual stipend for learning and development opportunities

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship as a Digital Marketing Manager
Frame your portfolio around business outcomes
USCIS adjudicators evaluate whether your role genuinely requires a specialized degree. Document campaigns with measurable ROI, attribution modeling, and cross-channel strategy to demonstrate complexity that couldn't be performed without a marketing-specific academic background.
Use OFLC Wage Search before negotiating salary
Your employer's LCA must certify a wage at or above the DOL prevailing wage for your exact SOC code and work location. Pull the OFLC Wage Search figure before your offer conversation so the certified wage doesn't become a ceiling on your compensation.
Target employers with active LCA filing history
Use Migrate Mate to filter Digital Marketing Manager roles by verified DOL Labor Condition Application data, so you're applying to employers who have already navigated H-1B sponsorship for this job title rather than introducing the process to them.
Confirm your title maps to the correct SOC code
Marketing Manager titles can be filed under multiple SOC codes with different prevailing wage levels. Check the O*NET occupation profile for your actual duties before your employer files the LCA, since a misclassified code can trigger a wage compliance issue or an RFE.
Ask about cap-exempt status during interviews
Universities, nonprofit research organizations, and certain government-affiliated employers are cap-exempt, meaning your H-1B petition skips the lottery and can be filed any time. If you're open to in-house or agency roles at these institutions, you gain filing flexibility the private sector can't offer.
Plan your I-140 timeline around digital skills demand
If your employer sponsors permanent residency through PERM, digital marketing roles under EB-2 or EB-3 require a job posting and prevailing wage audit. Start that conversation in year two of your H-1B, before your six-year cap creates urgency around the I-140 approval date.
H-1B Visa Digital Marketing Manager: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Digital Marketing Manager role qualify as an H-1B specialty occupation?
Yes, provided the position requires at minimum a bachelor's degree in a directly related field such as marketing, communications, or business. Generalist roles where any degree satisfies the requirement can receive an RFE. Strong petitions tie specific duties, such as marketing attribution modeling or paid media strategy, to degree-level coursework in the relevant discipline.
Which employers sponsor H-1B visas for Digital Marketing Manager positions?
Technology companies, e-commerce platforms, financial services firms, and large consumer brands are the most consistent sponsors for this title, since their marketing functions require specialized digital expertise at scale. Migrate Mate shows verified LCA filing history by job title and employer, so you can identify companies that have actively sponsored this role rather than guessing based on company size.
How does the H-1B lottery affect my start date as a Digital Marketing Manager?
Cap-subject H-1B petitions must be filed in early April for a October 1 start date. If your current status doesn't permit continued work after your OPT or other authorization expires, the gap between selection and the October start can require careful planning. Some candidates time their job search to secure an offer by February or March to allow enough lead time for filing.
Can my Digital Marketing Manager H-1B be transferred if I change employers?
Yes. H-1B portability under AC21 allows you to start working for a new employer once the transfer petition is filed, without waiting for approval, as long as your prior H-1B was approved and you haven't been out of status. Your new employer files a fresh I-129 covering your updated role, location, and LCA-certified wage.
What should I check before accepting a Digital Marketing Manager offer from an H-1B sponsor?
Verify the employer's E-Verify enrollment, since H-1B employers are required to participate. Confirm the job duties in your offer letter match the specialty occupation description that will appear on the LCA and I-129, and cross-check the certified wage against the OFLC Wage Search figure for your location. Mismatches between the offer and the petition are a leading cause of RFEs for marketing roles.
