About the Role NinjaOne is growing, and we're looking for a highly skilled and motivated Public Sector Marketing Manager to join our team. This is an exciting opportunity to be at the front‑line of driving growth in the public sector market, primarily within Federal sectors. You'll leverage your strategic marketing expertise to develop and execute high‑impact campaigns that increase awareness, generate demand, and position NinjaOne's solutions as leaders in the space. A key part of this role will be building and activating channel and partner programs — collaborating with resellers, distributors, and strategic partners to extend our reach and accelerate pipeline in the public sector. As a key member of the marketing team, you'll work closely with cross‑functional partners, channel teams, and the broader partner ecosystem to shape and influence NinjaOne's public sector strategy — making a real impact on the company's growth trajectory.

Lead cross‑functional teams and third‑party agencies to create targeted messaging, content, and positioning that resonates with public sector stakeholders, channel partners, and resellers. Build and nurture relationships with key internal stakeholders (sales, sales ops, marketing, channel teams) and external partners (resellers, distributors, vendors, associations) to ensure strategic alignment and campaign success. Design and execute partner marketing programs — including MDF‑funded campaigns, co‑marketing initiatives, and enablement resources — to drive pipeline through the channel. Analyze campaign performance across direct and channel‑sourced pipeline, providing actionable insights to optimize future marketing efforts and increase ROI. Develop and manage budgets for marketing campaigns, including partner and channel marketing funds, ensuring resources are allocated effectively and efficiently. Represent NinjaOne at industry events and conferences, with 25%+ travel required, to enhance brand presence, generate leads, and strengthen partner relationships. Work closely with sales teams and channel partners to ensure alignment and support the achievement of revenue targets. Collaborate with extended marketing and channel teams to leverage best practices and optimize resources for the public sector market.
