Sr. Marketing Manager, Australia

A NOTE ON HOW TO REACH US

We're truly grateful that so many people have Foundant on their radar — it means a lot that our work resonates with others. That said, due to the high volume of direct messages and emails we receive, cold outreach isn't the preferred way to be considered for a role, and we're not able to prioritize applications submitted this way. To apply for open positions, please visit our careers page, which is the fastest and most effective route to being considered.

About Foundant

At Foundant, we build mission-critical software for the social good ecosystem — helping foundations, grantmakers, nonprofits, and community organizations streamline their work, strengthen relationships, and maximize their impact. We serve the giving community worldwide with a comprehensive suite of solutions spanning grant management, community foundation software, and giving analytics.

We're a unified company shaped by strong roots across our product portfolio, and we operate with intention and purpose. Our team of ~350 people across six countries is connected by a shared North Star: to be the trusted partner and strategic advisor to the communities we serve.

Role overview

Foundant is growing its presence in the Australian philanthropic and social good sector, and we're looking for a hands-on marketing generalist to build our audience, presence, and lead pipeline on the ground. This person will grow and diversify our Australian contact list, build marketing partnerships that extend our reach across the country, run in-market events, and produce or manage the content that drives demand generation — with a distinct focus on Australian philanthropy. A talented, driven and self-directed marketing generalist who has spent 7+ years working independently in marketing across tech (and preferably philanthropy or the social good sector) who is comfortable owning a full SaaS remit — from list building to live events to content and email output — without a large team on the same timezone.

Where You’ll Work:

- As a remote-first workplace, we believe in offering flexibility and the freedom to work where it suits you best, while staying connected through technology. Our global network of talent is supported by physical office hubs and virtual collaboration, fostering a dynamic environment where innovation and growth thrive.

- Must be located in the same time zone as a major Australian city (e.g. Sydney, Melbourne, or Brisbane — AEST/AEDT) to overlap with events, partners, and the broader team. This role will work closely day-to-day with the small Australia-based sales team and Managing Director on local priorities, and closely within the broader marketing team — mostly based in the US — for demand-gen support, campaign alignment, content planning, and reporting.

What You’ll Do:

List building & marketing partnerships

- Grow Foundant's Australian marketable list through multipronged organic, paid, and partnership-driven channels. Drive and hit monthly MQL targets.

- Identify, pitch, and manage co-marketing and channel partnerships with sector associations, philanthropy networks, associations and philantrophy “influencers” as well as complementary vendors to extend Foundant’s reach and awareness across the country.

Events on the ground

- Plan and run in-person events across Australia — from small roundtables, lunch and learns, webinars, to larger panels and conference presences — end to end (venue, logistics, speakers, promotion, follow-up).

- Represent Foundant as needed at relevant industry conferences and sector gatherings.

Content & demand generation

- Develop demand-generation content specific to the Australian philanthropic sector: webinars, panels, reports, and blog posts.

- Either write this content directly or manage freelance/contract writers to produce it, depending on volume and specialization needed.

- Repurpose and localize existing Foundant content (US/UK) for the Australian market and voice wher
