Description

JOB TITLE: Business Process Manager - Lifecycle Marketing
LOCATION: San Jose, CA (Hybrid; 2 days in office/week)
PAY RANGE: $60 - $70/hr.
DURATION: 4 Months

Company:
Our client is a global leader in creative software, offering innovative tools for digital media creation, design, and marketing.

Duties:
  • Process Documentation & Standardization
    • Conduct structured process discovery across global lifecycle marketing teams, facilitating workshops and interviews to capture current-state workflows end-to-end from creative briefing through audience targeting, QA, and email deployment.
    • Produce high-quality process documentation: swim lane diagrams, workflow maps, RACI matrices, and narrative process descriptions that are accurate, accessible, and maintained as living references.
    • Translate undocumented tribal knowledge and ad-hoc practices into formal SOPs, templates, and playbooks that enable consistent execution across teams and regions.
    • Build and maintain a centralized process library, ensuring all documented workflows, SOPs, and standards are version-controlled, findable, and kept current as the business evolves.
    • Partner with cross-functional teams to validate documentation accuracy, capturing regional variations and edge cases that affect how processes actually run in practice.
  • Benchmarking & Performance Measurement
    • Design the team’s process benchmarking framework, defining the right metrics, establishing baselines, and creating measurement cadences that give leadership a reliable view of operational performance.
    • Instrument key lifecycle marketing workflows to track Time to Market, Time on Task, handoff latency, rework rates, and other indicators of process health and efficiency.
    • Conduct regular process audits to assess how closely actual execution aligns with documented standards, identifying gaps, drift, and patterns that signal where processes need attention.
    • Produce clear, data-driven benchmark reports for senior leadership that contextualize performance against internal baselines and, where applicable, industry standards.
    • Build and maintain dashboards in tools like Workfront and M365 that surface real-time process health data, giving teams and stakeholders ongoing visibility into operational metrics.
  • Process Analysis & Recommendations
    • Analyze documented processes and benchmarking data to identify inefficiencies, bottlenecks, and root causes, synthesizing findings into structured, evidence-based recommendations for process owners and senior leadership.
    • Develop clear before/after analyses when process changes are made, quantifying impact on efficiency, quality, and time savings to build an institutional record of what works.
    • Maintain a prioritized process improvement backlog informed by audit findings, benchmark trends, and stakeholder input, keeping leadership aligned on where the highest-value opportunities lie.
    • Evaluate new tools and technologies entering the workflow from a process documentation lens, ensuring capability changes are captured in updated SOPs and reflected in benchmarking frameworks.

Skills:
  • Exceptional process documentation skills, with proven ability to produce swimlane diagrams, value stream maps, RACI matrices, SOPs, and playbooks that are precise, readable, and genuinely used by teams.
  • Strong benchmarking and measurement design experience, skilled at defining the right KPIs for process health, establishing reliable baselines, and building frameworks that make performance trends visible over time.
  • Solid grounding in process improvement methodologies (Lean, Six Sigma, Kaizen, SAFe) applied primarily as analytical and documentation frameworks to understand and describe processes rigorously.
  • Experience in email or lifecycle marketing operations, with a thorough understanding of end-to-end email execution workflows: creative development, audience targeting, QA, and deployment.
  • Advanced proficiency in Workfront (certification a plus) and M365 for workflow documentation, process tracking, and performance dashboards.
  • Strong analytical and reporting skills, comfortable working with operational data to produce benchmark analyses and leadership-ready performance summaries.
  • Meticulous attention to detail and a genuine passion for making operational knowledge explicit, structured, and durable.

Education:
  • Proven experience with BA/BS degree.
