Partner & Events Marketing Manager

Who are we?
At UpGuard, we are replacing manual security bottlenecks with AI-driven precision. Fresh off a US$75M Series C, we are scaling our infrastructure to process 100 billion risk signals daily. This isn’t just growth; it’s a total reimagining of how the world manages cyber risk.

We build the Cyber Risk Posture Management (CRPM) platform that security teams actually love. By integrating security ratings, threat intel, and agentic AI, we empower organisations to stay ahead of an ever evolving attack surface.

We aren’t just building another tool; we’re defining a category. We provide the autonomy to ship world-class technology and the resources to do it at a global scale.

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 organisations 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 Events Marketing 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).
 
Events are the heartbeat of this role. You will plan, produce, and measure a calendar of partner facing events designed to generate pipeline, deepen partner relationships, and amplify UpGuard's brand through our ecosystem of MSSPs, Fulfilment partners, and strategic alliances. Alongside this, you will ensure our B2B Marketplace listings (e.g., GCP, AWS &  Azure) are optimized and high-performing.
 
This role sits at the intersection of Revenue, Product Squads, and our centralized execution teams. You will ensure that our partners are equipped with the most up-to-date, on-brand GTM materials, and that our Marketplace listings are optimized to generate a qualified trial pipeline, directly supporting both new logo acquisition and expansion revenue goals.
