What are the responsibilities and job description for the Product Marketing, Personas (Clay for Marketing) position at Clay?
About Clay
Our mission is to help organizations turn any growth idea into reality.
We see growth as a creative practice, not a formula. Finding and reaching your best-fit customers takes unique ideas and constant iteration. As AI makes execution faster and tactics easier to copy, creativity is the only lasting advantage. We're already helping thousands of customers — including Anthropic, Notion, Google, and Ramp — go to market with unique data, signals, and AI research.
In 2025, we raised a $100M Series C backed by world-class investors including Sequoia, CapitalG, and First Round — and crossed $100M in revenue.
In 2026, we announced our second employee tender offer in 9 months at a new $5B valuation. We also launched a community equity round, for our customers, agency partners, and club members.
Some things to know about us:
Product Marketing, Personas (Clay for Marketing)
We're seeking a Product Marketer to lead Clay's expansion into the marketing persona — a high-impact role focused on reaching a meaningful new audience within our existing customer base and beyond. Clay grew up selling into GTM/RevOps, and while marketers represent a significant share of our customer base, the story for them is still underdeveloped.
You'll own the positioning, use cases, and campaigns that help marketers understand what GTM engineering means for their work. Partnering closely with our GTM team, you'll stay close to real customer conversations to shape how this persona evolves over time.
