Who are we?
UpGuard’s mission is to make life easier for security teams. We meticulously create robust solutions that enable our customers to identify, assess, and remediate cybersecurity risk across their attack surface, vendor ecosystem, workforce, and trust relationships. Our integrated cyber risk posture management platform combines comprehensive security ratings, instant risk assessments, templated security questionnaires, threat intelligence capabilities, and agentic AI to give organizations a holistic view of their risk surface.
The Marketing team at UpGuard includes multiple marketing and design functions, including Product Marketing, Demand Gen, Marketing Ops, Content Marketing, SEO, Community, Design, and Video. UpGuard’s vision is to become a leader in the markets we play in (Cyber VRM, Attack Surface Management) by providing a best-in-class SaaS platform for organizations to manage their third-party risk and external attack surface. Our purpose as a Marketing team is to facilitate this goal by growing UpGuard with a repeatable and scalable marketing engine and a leading brand.
Where does this role fit in?
The Partner and Marketplaces Manager is a critical role reporting to the VP, Field and Partner Marketing. This position is the operational engine responsible for activating, maintaining, and scaling marketing efforts through our external partner ecosystem, including MSSPs, Fulfilment partners, and B2B Marketplaces (e.g., cloud marketplaces).
This role sits at the intersection of Revenue (Partnership Managers), Product Squads, and our centralised execution teams. You ensure that our partners are equipped with the most up-to-date, on-brand GTM materials and that our Marketplace listings are optimised to generate a qualified trial pipeline, directly supporting both new logo acquisition and expansion revenue goals.
This is a first-of-its-kind role at UpGuard. You will help define how partner and marketplace marketing works, not just execute existing processes.
