Channel Marketing Manager

Job description

Who we are? HarfangLab is the European leader in Workspace Detection and Response. As security teams juggle fragmented tools that compound coverage gaps across AI agents, identities, cloud environments, exposed assets, and endpoints, HarfangLab delivers a unified platform powered by a single lightweight agent and AI built for cyber. Certified by ANSSI (France’s national cybersecurity agency) and BSI (Germany’s Federal Office for Information Security), and recognized by Gartner and Forrester, HarfangLab extends detection and response to protect the modern workspace, from on-prem to the cloud, wherever work happens. HarfangLab now protects the endpoints of more than 1,000 clients across all sectors , including CAC 40 industrial companies, government entities, SMEs, hospitals, and local authorities. Backed by €30 million in funding, we have grown from 40 employees in 2023 to 140 today. We’re going global, and we’re counting on you to help take us there. Why are we hiring? The Channel Marketing Manager owns the company’s partner-led marketing motion and its contribution to marketing-sourced pipeline. Sitting within Marketing and reporting directly to the CMO, this role turns our channel ecosystem — particularly MSSPs and distributors — into a growth engine through partner activation, strategic events, demand generation, and targeted account programs. This is an autonomous, hands-on marketing role working closely with Channel, Sales, CSM and across Marketing, but not acting as a “middle person”. You own the strategy, execution, investment, and outcomes. What you will do with us? As a key member of our eight-person Marketing team, your main missions will include 80% Channel Marketing and 20% ABX contribution. Strategy & investment Own the Channel Marketing strategy and execution across strategic and priority partners, particularly MSSPs and distributors. Determine where Marketing should invest across the partner ecosystem based on ICP, market opportunity, partner potential, and pipeline objectives.

Build joint GTM strategies and execute demand-generation programs with priority partners, directly contributing to marketing-sourced pipeline. Create scalable partner plays, campaign-in-a-box programs, and other repeatable motions, while knowing when to break the playbook and try something new. Own partner activation and engagement, ensuring programs are adopted, optimized, and measured. Collaboration & ABX Work hand in hand with Channel and Sales to turn commercial priorities, partner intelligence, and account insight into effective marketing programs. Partner with Field Marketing, Demand Growth, Product Marketing, PR & Comms, Content, and Design to amplify channel programs, without outsourcing ownership. Contribute to ABX programs for strategic accounts where partner relationships can create differentiated engagement and pipeline. Technology, data & international markets Own and optimize PRM platforms and partner marketing infrastructure, including Salesforce Use account intelligence, CRM/PRM data, intent signals, and automation — including AI where it genuinely improves speed, scale, or personalization — to identify opportunities and improve performance. Localize programs across English-, French-, and German-speaking markets and travel regularly to engage partners and support key events. About you Hard skills 5+ years of Channel Marketing experience, ideally in cybersecurity, B2B technology, or SaaS Proven experience building partner-led programs that generate measurable pipeline.

Soft skills A highly data-driven, commercially minded approach — you care about pipeline and outcomes, not activity for activity's sake. A creative, scrappy, hands-on mindset.
