About Sun IP

\n

Sun IP is a technology-enabled provider of global intellectual property services, supporting law firms and corporate IP teams across filings, translations, renewals, and IP support services. We deliver high-quality patent and trademark solutions through a combination of subject matter expertise, service excellence, and a secure, cloud-based platform.

\n

\n

We are expanding our go-to-market organization to support continued growth across patent and trademark renewals, while building a foundation for broader service offerings including filings, translations, and recordals.

\n

\n

Position Summary

\n

Sun IP is entering a period of meaningful expansion. We are growing our service portfolio, launching new platforms, and scaling our go-to-market organization to capture a market that has long been underserved by our competitors. This role joins at a foundational moment and will shape how Sun IP's services reach the market and grow our market share.

\n

\n

Reporting to the Chief Marketing Officer, the IP Product Marketing Lead owns positioning, messaging, launches, and market intelligence across Sun IP's portfolio of IP services: patent annuity services, trademark renewal services, filings, translations, and recordals. This person is the connective tissue between Product, Sales, and the market, translating complex IP services into clear, compelling value propositions, and ensuring Sales, content, and GTM campaigns are grounded in a sharp understanding of buyers and competitors.

\n

\n

This role also drives multi-channel marketing strategy across Sun IP's portfolio and reviews and optimizes our established event and conference presence, working closely with the Events Marketing Specialist, who reports separately to the CMO and owns hands-on logistics and execution. The IP Product Marketer defines what Sun IP says and does at each event and how it ties to pipeline. As Sun IP's marketing function grows, this role has real potential to expand into a people-leadership position across the marketing function.

\n

\n

This is a builder role for someone who enjoys both strategic thinking and translating market and buyer insight into multi-channel programs that improve business outcomes. The role works closely with Sales, Product, and Leadership in a lean environment, with significant opportunity to shape both the marketing function and the narrative as Sun IP grows.
