What moves a Marketing Operations Manager’s salary

- 3+ years marketing operations, marketing analytics, or MarTech administration in a B2B SaaS or scaling e-commerce environment
- Hands-on experience with HubSpot, Marketo, or Salesforce and at least two other marketing tools (analytics, ads, email)
- Proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets; ability to build dashboards, pivot tables, and simple SQL queries for data pulls
- Experience designing and documenting processes; comfortable using Asana, Notion, or similar for SOPs and team enablement
- Understanding of marketing fundamentals (CAC, LTV, attribution, lead scoring) and how revenue operations fits into the business
- Comfort with API integrations, webhooks, and troubleshooting tool connectivity issues without relying solely on vendor support
