Fidelity Digital Assets
Senior Manager, Go-to-Market & Strategic Planning
The Role
The Senior Manager of Go-to-Market & Strategic Planning is responsible for core components of go-to-market planning and reporting across institutional and retail initiatives, with an emphasis on sales and client service enablement, and client and prospect experience and communications. There will be opportunity to lead certain projects end-to-end, conducting discovery and facilitating conversations with partners in other functions, such as product, legal, compliance, service, and sales, to help inform planning and field readiness, and representing the GTM team on specific initiatives by speaking at cross-business or cross-firm forums to provide updates on planning progress or train field associates on product messaging. Reporting to the Vice President of Go-to-Market & Strategic Planning, the Senior Manager will work closely with the Director of Go-to-Market & Strategic Planning and segment marketers in the U.S. and UK. Fidelity Digital Assets℠ is a growth business, so comfort with varying pace of work, pivoting with the business and market needs, and operating with a high degree of ambiguity is required.
The Expertise and Skills You Bring
A client-service and risk management minded strategist and planner who uses data and insights to build and implement go-to-market plans and is skilled at navigating cross-functional, cross-business unit relationships. A strong communicator able to build narratives around go-to-market plans for internal- and external-facing initiatives that clearly articulate the business need, marketing and field enablement strategy; the ability to distill complex concepts and process flows for multiple audiences; and ensure broad internal awareness of key initiatives and progress against the business’ goals.
- Ability to seamlessly switch between big picture and more tactical thinking to ensure go-to-market plans account for other – and where relevant are integrated with – digital assets initiatives across the firm while also addressing in detail the business and field enablement needs for individual projects.
- Adept at identifying business and reputational risks and take these into consideration in developing and evolving go-to-market plans.
- Ability to dive deep on discovery and confidently driving conversations with subject matter experts on product, operations, tech, sales, service, legal, risk, and compliance teams to uncover information that may influence go-to-market strategy, value propositions, and field messaging and resources.
- Proven ability to stand up and run cross-functional workstreams within a GTM initiative.
- Collaborate with other members of the GTM team to ensure transparency, alignment, and, where appropriate, integration of various initiatives across the team.
- Ability to partner with multiple functions, including Segment Marketing and Marketing Operations to ensure on-time successful delivery of marketing assets and subsequent marketing effectiveness measurement, and the sales and service teams to ensure associates are aware of and prepared to manage inquiries and specific tasks related to go-to-market activations.
- Minimum of 3 to 5 years of experience in integrated communications, marketing, or business planning. Market research experience a plus but not required.
