About The Position

Lightspeed is looking for a Senior Marketing Project Manager to support our global marketing portfolio. This is a senior individual contributor role for an experienced project leader who thrives in complexity, brings structure to ambiguity, and can confidently drive execution across high-impact marketing initiatives. Reporting into the Marketing PMO, you will lead the delivery of complex, cross-functional projects across marketing - with a strong focus on product launches, alongside campaigns, lifecycle marketing initiatives, and key brand moments. You will partner closely with regional and global stakeholders to translate business priorities into clear plans and successful execution. One quarter, you may be leading a global launch for one of our core POS or Financial Services products - coordinating timelines across Product Marketing, Creative, Content, Legal, and regional marketing teams. Another, you may be driving a high-priority campaign or enabling a key brand moment. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys building clarity in fast-moving environments, is energized by solving complex delivery challenges, and wants to help shape how great marketing work gets done. You’ll be joining a team actively evolving how marketing operates, making this a great opportunity for someone excited to raise the bar while staying grounded in execution.
