Marketing Strategy and AI Operations Lead

Aceable is seeking a Marketing Strategy & AI Operations Lead to own the work that moves the business forward. Think high-priority initiatives that cross functions, don't sit neatly within a single team, and require clear thinking and decisive execution.

You'll partner closely with the VP of Marketing and leaders across the organization to drive critical initiatives end-to-end and ensure momentum never stalls. One week that may mean advancing our B2B strategy; the next, leading a site migration, stabilizing a performance gap, or managing a strategic vendor. The constant is your ability to quickly diagnose what matters, step in with clarity, and deliver measurable impact.

This role is designed for a high-judgment generalist with broad marketing range and strong business acumen. You operate independently, bring structure to ambiguity, and move complex work forward without waiting for direction. You don't wait for perfect conditions or clear permission — you identify what needs to happen and you go make it happen, breaking down walls until it's done. You also bring genuine AI fluency to the work, applying tools and automation to increase leverage and move faster.

You serve as a critical continuity layer for the marketing org. When an experimental initiative needs a leader, when a high-stakes project has no clear owner, or when execution needs to stay on track regardless of circumstance, you step in without missing a beat. If you're the person leadership relies on when something important has no clear owner, you'll thrive here. This role operates as a senior individual contributor and force multiplier for the VP of Marketing, advancing critical initiatives and increasing execution velocity across the organization.
