What’s Cool About This Job

WEKA is looking for a Sr Regional Marketing Manager to lead our regional growth across EMEA and Middle East. This is a strategic, hands-on role for a marketing leader who thrives in high-velocity environments and is energized by the opportunity to shape the future of WEKA. You’ll partner with sales, tap into global campaigns, and create region-specific programs that build pipeline, elevate our brand, and drive results fast.

We’re looking for someone with a bias for action, a deep sense of ownership, and a drive to move the business forward. You’ll lead strategy, execute quickly, and continuously improve through experimentation, iteration, and data. If you’re excited by the possibilities of AI and new tools that help marketers work smarter and faster—this is your stage.

This role is a rare mix of strategy, execution, and impact. You’ll have real ownership over how WEKA shows up and grows across the EMEA region, with the freedom to build programs that make a measurable difference. You’ll work closely with sales, partners, and global marketing leaders to shape go-to-market strategy and accelerate pipeline. Because we’re a fast-moving, high-growth company, your ideas won’t sit on a roadmap—they’ll launch, evolve, and scale quickly. You’ll also be at the center of one of the most exciting shifts in tech, helping tell the story of how WEKA powers next-gen AI innovation. And you’ll have access to the latest AI and automation tools to help you move faster, work smarter, and unlock more value from every campaign.

Responsibilities include:

Lead Regional Strategy and Execution

• Own the EMEA marketing strategy—aligning tightly with sales priorities, adapting global campaigns, and leading execution with speed and precision.
• Drive short-term pipeline while building long-term brand visibility across core European and Middle Eastern markets.
• Be the voice of EMEA in global planning—and the voice of WEKA in the region.

Accelerate Demand and Pipeline Generation

• Launch and optimize integrated demand programs with a strong focus on pipeline contribution, including, field, events, and account-based marketing (ABM).
• Build targeted campaigns that convert—turning insight into high-impact programs that generate leads and move opportunities through the funnel.
• Partner closely with sales to align on ABM strategy, territory needs, and follow-up workflows that support deal acceleration.
• Support and enable SDR teams with segmented assets, messaging frameworks, and outbound campaign support.

Move Fast and Execute Locally

• Localize and execute global programs—ensuring regional relevance, speed to market, and performance.
• Deliver high-impact events, executive briefings, and partner activations that engage customers and accelerate deal cycles.
• Pilot and scale new approaches using AI and automation to streamline workflows, reach audiences faster, and amplify content.

Own Results and Optimize Performance

• Manage the regional budget with a focus on ROI and velocity.
• Track, analyze, and improve program effectiveness across every touchpoint—continuously learning and scaling what works.

Lead and Develop a Growing Team

• Manage and mentor a small regional team, including a field marketer in the Middle East.
• Cultivate a culture of urgency, innovation, accountability, and growth.

Desired Qualifications

• 8+ years of B2B marketing experience with at least 3 years in a regional leadership role.
• Deep expertise in demand generation, including digital, field, and account-based marketing (ABM)—with a clear focus on measurable outcomes
• Strong leadership experience—able to coach and grow a team while being highly effective as an individual contributor and cross-functional collaborator
• Demonstrated success partnering closely with sales, SDRs, and channel teams to drive alignment and deliver results
• Relentlessly driven, accountable, and action-oriented—you take ownership, move fast, and thrive under pressure
• Comfortable navigating ambiguity and building structure where none exists—you know how to prioritize, adapt, and execute
• A builder’s mindset with a bias for experimentation—you actively seek out new technologies, especially AI and automation tools, to improve speed, efficiency, and impact
• Excellent communication and influencing skills, with the ability to work across regions, cultures, and stakeholder levels

Bonus:

• Familiarity with infrastructure, storage, data platforms, or AI technologies
