Startup Marketing Jobs: Marketing Manager, MineralTree

by Nathan W. Burke on September 20, 2013

Every now and then, I’ll post a job description here. This time it happens to be a job at MineralTree. I’m looking for someone to work with me to change the way small businesses make payments, and to revolutionize how banks market to their SMB customers. If you’re up to the challenge, let’s talk.

Marketing Manager, MineralTree

At MineralTree, we’re building software that changes the way small businesses pay their bills. MineralTree’s automated bill pay software helps business owners process, approve, and pay their bills online with a simple, secure, and mobile platform, giving them more time to focus on their business. Our employees solve problems that help our customers every day in a fun and fast-paced environment.

We are located in Cambridge, Massachusetts steps away from the Alewife T Station.

We’re looking for a creative Marketing Manager to join our small and tenacious marketing team. We’re a fast-paced startup, so if rolling up your sleeves, multitasking, and staying on top of multiple projects concurrently are what you look forward to in your work, we want to talk to you.

Roles & Responsibilities

  • Writing – You are able to communicate effortlessly in emails, expertly in blog posts, and it shows. You don’t have to know every technical detail of our product, but you do have to grasp the fundamental concepts and be able to convey that in words.
  • Prospecting – Admittedly not the most glamorous of marketing tasks, but one that is critically important. You’ll find new potential customers, and will be able to plow through a list, qualify prospects, and load them into our CRM.
  • Events and PR Coordination – We’re doing several events and PR campaigns in 2013-14, and coordinating everything takes time and effort. From printing the right product sheets and shipping USB drives to booking hotels and meeting with press, there are endless tasks to complete. You’ll be asked to help out with some of the meeting logistics, and you don’t mind nagging people to get things done.
  • Marketing Operations – You’re disciplined enough to get things done. You’re able to work through our marketing systems (Salesforce.com, Marketo, WordPress, etc.) to manage the entire lead cycle.
  • Social – Our social channels need care and feeding. You are able to stay on top of industry news, post updates to our Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook pages, and own the social channel.
  • Metrics – You will help to produce marketing metrics each week to show visitors, pipeline trends, ranked account acceleration, and other KPIs.
  • News – You’ll stay on top of news trends, and will share relevant items internally, and can turn news stories into blog posts and social announcements.

Requirements

Must Have:

  • Marketing Experience in a Company – 1-3 years experience in a marketing department.
  • Passion for Making an Impact – You want your work to make a difference.
  • You are Ultra-organized and Self Disciplined – The term fast-paced startup isn’t just a cliché in this case. You’ll be bombarded from every angle with tasks, but that’s no big deal to you. Water off a duck’s back. Spreadsheets are your best friend.
  • You are Eager to Learn – We have a great team and are always willing to share what we know to help you learn. This isn’t a punch-in, sit around for 8 hours, punch-out kind of a gig.

Nice To Have:

  • Marketing experience within a software company
  • Use and Understanding of Salesforce.com, WordPress It’s a plus if you know your way around a CRM, CMS, and have either used or understand the concept of a marketing automation product.
  • Design experience is a huge bonus. We’re always coming up with new ideas that need graphic work, and our designer is perpetually overbooked.
