Channel Marketing Manager

Channel Marketing Manager Full-Time | Hybrid | Reports to Director of Growth Marketing 

Auris™ is the payroll and HR company built for small and midsized businesses that can't afford to get it wrong. Trusted by more than 50,000 businesses nationwide, Auris combines intuitive technology with real human expertise to ensure payroll, compliance, and workforce operations run correctly every time. 

Now part of Acrisure, Auris is entering its next phase of growth, modernizing its demand engine, expanding nationally, and building a more predictable pipeline across digital and partner-driven channels. 

We are seeking a Channel Marketing Manager to own demand generation through Auris's referral and partner network. This includes CPAs, brokers, banks and embedded partners, and the broader Acrisure distribution ecosystem. Partners already have relationships with the businesses we serve. This role builds the marketing motion that turns those relationships into pipeline. 

About the Role 

This is not a co-marketing coordinator role. It is not an event planner with a partner list. It is a demand generation role where the distribution channel is a network of referral partners, and your job is to make that network produce. You will own the strategy, programs, and content that equip CPAs, brokers, banks and embedded partners to introduce Auris to their clients, and you will be accountable for the pipeline that results. 

You will also own Auris's presence at partner-facing trade shows and events with a pipeline objective attached to every activation. 

What You'll Own 

— Partner demand generation. Build and run marketing programs that drive inbound referral pipeline from CPAs, brokers, and embedded partners across the Acrisure ecosystem and beyond. Measured by partner-sourced and partner-influenced pipeline, not partner satisfaction scores. 

— Channel cross-sell programs. Develop structured campaigns targeting specific expansion scenarios within the partner book: clients on payroll only, clients approaching renewal, clients with recent headcount changes. Give partners a reason to make the introduction today, not eventually. 

— Partner enablement content. Build the digital tools partners use to sell. You don’t think about sales enablement, but rather buyer enablement. Tools, guides, objection guides, and case studies written for how a CPA or broker explains Auris to a client. If a partner can't make the case in 60 seconds, that's a tool problem. 

— Co-marketing execution. Run joint campaigns with key partners across the Acrisure ecosystem — co-branded assets, co-hosted events, shared outreach sequences. Own the timeline, the output, and the pipeline attribution on both sides. 

— Events and trade show management. Own Auris's presence at partner-facing trade shows and industry events — from pre-show outreach and logistics to on-site execution and post-event pipeline follow-through. Every event has a pipeline objective before it's approved.
