At Lyft, our purpose is to serve and connect. We aim to achieve this by cultivating a work environment where all team members belong and have the opportunity to thrive.
The strongest enterprise and mid-market marketing doesn't lead with a product - it leads with the problem a buyer already has. A hospital administrator isn't looking for "Lyft Concierge"; they're looking to reduce missed appointments. An auto dealer principal isn't looking for a rideshare product; they're looking to keep loaner logistics from costing them revenue.
We are in the process of revising our go-to-market for Lyft Business to organize around these audiences and their transportation problems, with Concierge, Lyft Pass, Business Profiles, and our Business Travel products positioned as the answer to a clearly named pain point by customer profile.
We're hiring an Industry Marketing Manager to build that audience-first structure for our priority verticals, starting with **Healthcare** and **Automotive** , across both mid-market and enterprise segments. You'll own the vertical narrative and the content, demand generation strategy, and enablement that will drive marketing-attributable revenue.
The primary function of this role is to build and lead vertical-specific go-to-market (GTM) motions for our mid-market and Enterprise business - bringing together vertical-specific content, demand generation, and sales enablement into a coherent, audience-first strategy.
**Responsibilities:**
+ **Own vertical strategy and integrated programs**
+ Design and execute large, orchestrated tentpole programs for our priority verticals (no more than 2 per quarter) - multichannel activation spanning digital, live events, paid media, social, and press - that bring our value proposition and industry point of view to life for a defined buyer (e.g., hospital CFO, healthcare operations leader, dealer principal/service manager).
+ Build and maintain a thought leadership agenda for each prioritized vertical: original research, proof points, and points of view that establish Lyft as the transportation authority in that space.
+ **Lead Healthcare as the highest-revenue priority, and scale the model to new verticals**
+ Own the strategic objective for Healthcare: defend Lyft's market leadership in NEMT (Non-Emergency Medical Transportation) while identifying and building new growth avenues within the segment.
+ Treat Healthcare as the proof-of-concept for vertical GTM - once the content, demand gen, and enablement model is working there, codify what worked into **a repeatable playbook.**
+ Scale that playbook to other priority verticals (e.g., Automotive, Universities, Hospitality/Events) as "Scalable Growth" opportunities - each with its own buyer, core transportation problem, and proof points, but built on a shared, repeatable "ROI playbook" methodology (defined vertical narrative → targeted demand gen → sales enablement → measured pipeline impact).
+ **Drive cross-functional alignment and partnership**
+ Build a strong, trust-based partnership with Sales and Product leadership; represent vertical marketing's point of view in cross-functional and executive forums.
+ Produce vertical-specific content and proof points that support Sales conversations and strengthen our positioning with target buyers.
+ Partner with Sales on account-based marketing (ABM) for priority accounts, and support full-funnel marketing ownership: from vertical paid demand generation and lead qualification (MQL/SQL definitions) through to sales handoff.
+ Bring together marketing, sales, and product perspectives across mid-market and enterprise segments. This role is the connective force that pulls a multi-faceted go-to-market motion into a coherent, audience-first strategy.
+ **Scale through agencies and partners**
+ Manage relationships with marketing and creative agencies to scale program execution, from campaign development through multichannel activation.
+ Build and run co-marketing programs with industry and technology partners to extend reach and credibility within each vertical.
+ Ensure all vertical marketing programs comply with the relevant regulatory and marketing requirements of the industry (e.g., healthcare marketing/compliance considerations).
+ **Measure and prioritize with data**
+ Define success metrics for every program and report business impact against them: pipeline influenced, MQL/SQL conversion, program ROI.
+ Bring rigor and evidence-based prioritization to a growing portfolio of vertical initiatives, using internal analytics tools to establish accurate baselines and guide where to invest next.
**Experience:**
+ 7+ years (L5) in B2B/enterprise marketing, with meaningful experience in industry or vertical marketing, integrated campaigns, or product marketing for regulated or complex-sale industries.
+ A track record of designing and running large, multichannel tentpole programs (digital, event, paid, social, PR) that tie back to measur
