Open Role: Graduate Partner Marketing Manager
Marketers at Canonical are brand stewards and demand creators. They transform complex open-source technology into messages, stories and strategies that shape the market understanding of our vision. Some focus on differentiated product and portfolio positioning; others specialize in account-based engagement, partner and alliance messaging, or product-led growth. Whatever their specialization, each marketer works as part of a cross-functional unit, contributing campaigns and insights that help the company learn and grow faster. We have a bias for action, focus efforts on the most impactful activities and take ownership of our results. We work across long buying cycles, balance storytelling with data, design experiments, track outcomes, and iterate rapidly to find what works. Marketers at Canonical don’t just promote open source; they amplify it, ensuring our innovations reach the right people, at the right time, with clarity and purpose from developers to decision makers.

You will gain experience working with top tier talent and with multiple enterprise technologies. If you have the drive and a high standard for excellence, we provide the platform for you to become a world-class marketing leader.
