Senior Account Based Marketing Manager, Strategic Accounts

About the Job

BuildOps is transforming how commercial contractors run their businesses by providing a modern, operations-focused platform that connects field, office, and finance. Joining the team means:

• Working in a dynamic, growth-oriented environment where your programs directly impact revenue.
• Partnering with high-caliber Sales, RevOps, and Marketing leaders who genuinely care about alignment and shared outcomes.
• Having the mandate to experiment with AI and new approaches to define what “world-class ABM” looks like for our category.

If you want to build and scale an ABM engine that sellers love and use AI to push what’s possible, we’d love to talk.

Who You Are

• You focus on the work and thrive where strategy meets execution. You love working shoulder-to-shoulder with sellers, understand their world, and build campaigns that help them win the hardest deals. You’re curious, outcome-driven, and comfortable pushing for better—grounding your opinions in data.
• You know how to turn account insight into coordinated plays that create momentum, deepen relationships, and accelerate revenue. You understand that great 1:1 ABM is not just campaigns — it’s orchestration. You know how to align Sales, SDRs, RevOps, Product Marketing, executives, and customer-facing teams around a shared account strategy. You’re comfortable operating in ambiguity, influencing without authority, and balancing strategic thinking with hands-on execution.
• You are also excited about how AI is transforming ABM — from account research and stakeholder mapping to personalization, insight synthesis, and workflow automation. You actively use AI tools to increase speed, quality, and sophistication in your work.
• As a Senior ABM Manager at BuildOps, you will lead highly personalized 1:1 ABM programs for a focused set of Strategic and Enterprise accounts. You will act as an extension of the account team to help drive pipeline creation, accelerate opportunities, and support BuildOps’ move upmarket.

• Support high-value opportunities through coordinated plays designed to improve engagement, multi-threading, executive alignment, and pipeline progression.

Drive Account Team Orchestration

• Operate as an embedded extension of the account team across Sales, SDRs, Marketing, RevOps, Product Marketing, and leadership.
• Facilitate strategic account reviews and identify opportunities to improve account penetration and deal velocity.
• Build repeatable frameworks for account orchestration, executive engagement, and opportunity acceleration.
• Develop tailored experiences across direct mail, executive programs, events, content, paid media, outbound coordination, and digital engagement.
• Partner closely with Product Marketing and Content teams to translate customer insights and industry challenges into compelling messaging and strategic narratives.

What We Look For

• 5+ years in B2B marketing, with at least 3+ years in ABM or enterprise demand gen owning programs for named accounts.

  • Proficiency in AI tools such as Claude, Glean, Perplexity & more

• Strong analytical mindset with experience tying ABM efforts to pipeline, opportunity progression, win rates, and revenue outcomes- not just vanity metrics.

• Comfortable operating at a senior IC level with high ownership and autonomy.

• Experience at a high-growth SaaS or tech-driven company is strongly preferred. Construction tech or commercial contractor industry experience is strongly preferred.

What You Bring & How You Operate

• Bias for action. You move fast, prioritize impact, and can ship high-quality work without a lot of hand-holding.
• Excellent communication. You can craft compelling narratives for prospects and clear updates for internal stakeholders—from SDRs to executives.
• High standards and great taste. You care about the details—from subject lines and gifting to event concepts and decks—and know what “excellent” looks like.
• AI-first curiosity. You’re actively looking for ways to use AI to work smarter, test more, and deliver better experiences without compromising quality or accuracy.
• Data-driven and outcome-oriented. You’re comfortable saying what’s working, what’s not, and what you’re changing next.
• High empathy and partnership. You understand the day-to-day reality of sellers, SDRs, and customers, and you build programs that make their lives easier.
