Marketing manager

The Role:

We’re on the hunt for an Alliances & Vertical Marketing Manager who lives for crafting epic industry stories and co-creating blockbuster campaigns with tech titans like AWS, Google, Microsoft, Cisco, Fortinet and Palo Alto.

This is where your knack for translating complex tech into killer narratives meets your passion for partner collaboration. You’ll own vertical-specific go-to-market plays, build co-branded content that cuts through the noise and launch field programs that turbocharge our ecosystem.

Get ready to shape how Megaport shows up in Financial Services, Healthcare, Media, Retail, Manufacturing and beyond; all while forging alliances that fuel real pipeline growth.

About Megaport

We’re not your typical tech company – and we don’t want to be. Megaport is the global leader in Network as a Service (NaaS), and has transformed the way businesses connect to the cloud, data centers, and each other. We’re publicly listed on the Australian Stock Exchange and partnered with the biggest names in tech like Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Oracle, IBM, and more. Headquartered in Brisbane with a crew of over 350 people spread across Asia-Pacific, Europe, and the Americas, our employees enjoy an environment that is collaborative, supportive, and (actually) fun.

Our Team Culture

We’re a team of problem solvers, pixel pushers, code slingers, and cloud fanatics. Culture is more than a poster on the wall here – collaboration beats hierarchy, curiosity fuels our growth, and everyone’s voice matters. We take our work seriously, but not ourselves. We work across time zones to execute on our global vision, trust each other to get things done, and never compromise our values for commercial gain. Most importantly, we place our customers at the center of everything we do.
