The Opportunity

The Global Demand Center is building a signal-led demand engine — one that uses account, audience, behavioral, intent, and market signals to identify where we should focus and how we should activate. The GrowthX team, within the Global Demand Center, is taking the lead on this initiative and looking for a new Demand Signals Specialist.

The Demand Signals Specialist will help turn signal-led strategy into accurate, actionable audiences that can be used across campaigns, field marketing, journey architecture, marketing automation, and activation channels.

This role is focused on audience build, enrichment, segmentation, QA, and activation readiness. They will work across teams to understand unique intent and fit signals to create impactful audiences for GrowthX programs. The ideal candidate is early in their career but technically curious, detail-oriented, comfortable working across modern GTM platforms, and excited to help build the audience foundation for a more dynamic demand model.

Build account, contact, and buying-group audiences based on direction from GrowthX strategy leads, campaign teams, field marketing, and journey teams.

Use tools such as Clay and Common Room to support audience creation, enrichment, segmentation, contact discovery, buying-group identification, and account research.

Apply required filters, exclusions, segmentation logic, region/segment views, product focus, persona criteria, suppression rules, and activation requirements.

Prepare audiences for activation

Package audience outputs for use by campaign managers, field marketing, journey architecture, marketing automation, digital activation, and xDR teams.
