- Develop sales and marketing assets in line with established launch standards, messaging toolkits, and source materials, including presentations, solution briefs, seller guides, customer stories, and web content.
- Develop messaging for existing customers of acquired products, so continuity is clear during transitions.
Campaigns and Activation

- Develop and support webinars, workshops, event presentations, and customer and partner briefings.
- Design and run focused, time-bound sales plays with sales leaders for priority accounts and use cases, with an emphasis on creating pipeline.
- Deliver enablement with the sellers who will use it, and make sure campaign and play responses get followed up.
Routes to Market
- Support hyperscaler marketplace and cloud partner programs when strategically needed, including listing content, co-marketing, and co-selling materials.
- Adapt messaging and assets for channel and technology partners.
Measurement and Learning
- Agree on how each campaign and play will be measured before it launches, then track results, including whether NetApp account teams bring the product into their customer conversations.
- Report what’s working, what isn’t, and why, with a clear recommendation to continue, scale, or stop.
- Capture what each program teaches so the next one starts faster.
Job Requirements
- Education & Experience: Bachelor’s degree with 8+ years in B2B technology marketing, including a significant track record in product marketing and hands-on experience in demand generation or digital marketing.

- Sales Partnership: Experience working directly with sales teams to create pipeline.
- Technical Fluency: Comfort with technical products and audiences, ideally in data infrastructure, data platforms, or AI.
- AI Tool Proficiency: An AI-native way of working: you use AI tools to research, draft, analyze, and move faster, and you can show how.

- Experience with hyperscaler marketplaces and co-selling with cloud partners.

Portfolio Manager Jobs in North Carolina: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a portfolio manager in North Carolina?
Most portfolio managers in North Carolina enter through a finance or economics degree, then register with FINRA by passing the Series 65 or Series 66 exam, which North Carolina requires for investment adviser representatives. From there, professionals typically spend several years as a research analyst or associate portfolio manager before taking on discretionary management responsibilities. Earning the CFA charter significantly accelerates that progression at Charlotte and Raleigh-Durham firms.
Which companies hire portfolio managers in North Carolina?
Employers hiring portfolio managers in North Carolina right now include Lenovo, Huntington Bank, and First National Bank, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. North Carolina's concentration of major bank holding companies and insurance carriers in Charlotte and the Research Triangle makes it one of the more active states for investment management hiring outside of New York.
Which North Carolina cities have the most portfolio manager jobs?
Charlotte, Raleigh, and Morrisville account for the most portfolio manager openings in North Carolina. Charlotte dominates because it is home to major bank headquarters and regional wealth management practices, while Raleigh-Durham draws volume from insurance companies, university endowments, and the technology sector's growing corporate treasury functions, and Greensboro adds openings through regional investment advisory firms and insurance carriers headquartered there.
Are there remote portfolio manager jobs in North Carolina?
Yes, though they are less common than in purely analytical or technology roles because many portfolio manager positions involve client-facing responsibilities and team-based investment processes that firms prefer to keep in person. About 65% of portfolio manager openings tied to North Carolina are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with the remote subset concentrated in quantitative or back-office portfolio analyst roles rather than client-directed discretionary management seats.
How can I get hired as a portfolio manager in North Carolina with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is a rotational analyst program at one of Charlotte's large bank-affiliated investment management divisions, where new graduates move across fixed income, equities, and multi-asset teams before specializing. Bank of America's Global Wealth and Investment Management group and Wells Fargo Advisors both run structured analyst tracks in Charlotte. Passing the Series 65 exam and beginning CFA Level I before applying signals readiness and separates candidates without a full experience record.
Where can I find and apply to portfolio manager jobs in North Carolina?
You can find and apply to portfolio manager jobs in North Carolina on Migrate Mate, which lists current North Carolina openings across Charlotte, Raleigh-Durham, Greensboro, and other markets in the state. Find the roles that fit your experience level and specialty and apply directly from each listing.
