About The Position

We are a global learning platform on a mission to motivate every learner by empowering every educator. From Kâ€“12 classrooms and universities to corporate training settings, our platform is trusted in over 150+ countries by 75 million monthly active users. In the U.S., 90% of schools use Wayground to engage students and transform learning through technology. Wayground is a high-growth, profitable SaaS company backed by leading investors including Tiger Global, GSV, and Nexus Venture Partners. If you're excited about education and international SaaS and want to build towards a mission that you can be proud of, then Wayground is the right place for you. The Field Marketing Manager, East is the channel and field marketing engine for Wayground's regional GTM motion. You will run the regional event calendar, district-facing webinar programs, and a portfolio of channel partnerships that generate and warm district conversations for the sales pods in your region. This role sits inside a regionally-organized GTM function built on a single thesis: that K-12 buying is locally defined by policy, funding, leadership change, and procurement realities and that the right way to win district business is to mirror that fragmentation with regionally-native execution. Where competitors run national playbooks, our regional teams run localized motions. You will be a core operator in that motion. You will partner closely with the Sales Managers, District AE-led sales pods in the region, your regional peer Enablement Manager focused on sales engineering, and the central brand and storyteller team that supplies content infrastructure. You report to the Lead, K-12 Marketing, East.

Requirements

5+ years in field marketing, channel marketing, regional marketing, or comparable B2B GTM execution role.
Demonstrated track record producing and operating events at scale, with end-to-end ownership of state-level conferences, partner events, or comparable channel programs.
Strong cross-functional collaboration with sales, content, and partnership teams. Comfortable as the marketing peer to a regional sales leader.
Data orientation: channel attribution, pipeline measurement, ROI analysis. You can defend your work with numbers.
Excellent written and verbal communication, your work is high-visibility internally and externally.
NYC-region residence required.
Hands-on experience with marketing automation, webinar platforms, and event production tooling.

Nice To Haves

K-12 ed-tech experience, or comparable experience marketing into public-sector or regulated-buyer environments.
Familiarity with ESA/BOCES/SEA networks, state superintendent associations, state tech-leadership networks, or comparable K-12 channel infrastructure.
Experience with cooperative purchasing vehicles and public-sector procurement.
Prior work inside a regional GTM model like pods, territory teams, or comparable distributed sales structures.
Priorities here shift, sometimes mid-quarter, because weâ€™d rather chase whatâ€™s working than finish what we started. You move quickly, take initiative, and donâ€™t lose momentum when the plan changes.

Responsibilities

Own the regional event calendar
Plan, produce, and execute Wayground's presence at state conferences, ISTE, conferences across East and Southern states, ESA gatherings in regional networks, regional channel-partner events, and experimental events in emerging territories.
Curate and host Wayground-led regional events like superintendent roundtables, district leader briefings, regional benchmark sessions in partnership with the Community Lead and centralized event ops.
Drive event ROI measurement: pipeline contribution by event, channel-partner relationship health, and sales follow-up and conversion on event-sourced leads.
Lead webinar and digital channel programs
Own a regional webinar series including concept, programming, production, and distribution that converts district-level audiences into pipeline for the regional pods.
Translate centralized content (positioning, proof points, competitive plays) into webinar formats that land for district leaders, decision-makers, and procurement audiences in the region.
Coordinate with the Lifecycle Marketing team on email distribution, segmentation, and lifecycle nurture into the webinar funnel.
Activate organizational partnerships
Build and maintain operational relationships with ESA networks, East-specific funding programs and state initiatives, regional CTE networks, state superintendent associations, and state technology leadership networks.
Run channel-partner co-marketing such as joint events, joint content, and joint campaigns that create regional reach Wayground cannot generate on its own.
Run regional demand and ABM programs
Build marketing programs that sales pods cannot run individually, such as a regional account-based marketing motion, a multi-pod brand activation around a state-level moment, and a coordinated channel-partner push.
Collaborate on regional plays produced by the Storyteller team and equip sales pods to run regional campaigns: what to run, when to run it, and how to measure it.
Run field marketing programs that support the District AEs across all pods in the region.
Measure and report
Success in this role is measured on regionally sourced and influenced pipeline, event ROI, and cost per opportunity. You will own channel attribution within the region, built to a standard thatâ€™s comparable across Waygroundâ€™s other regions.
Report weekly on activation pipeline, event performance, and channel-partner relationship status.
Surface what is working back to the centralized Storyteller team, the Community Lead, and the peer Enablement Manager (1:many) in the other region so the system gets smarter quarter over quarter.
