About the role

We’re looking for an experienced and enthusiastic Product Marketing Manager, who will diligently connect customer insights with innovative products and successfully craft and execute GTM strategies.

Sitting at the intersection of product development and marketing, you will work across teams to shape how our products are positioned, launched, and adopted. With an ambitious roadmap ahead, your expertise in go-to-market (GTM) strategy, audience segmentation, competitive analysis, and sales enablement will be critical in driving growth.

The ideal candidate is data-driven, results oriented, customer-obsessed, and highly strategic, with a background in GTM execution in a tech environment

What you will be doing

At Yoco you will:

• Own the Product Marketing strategy for a set of Yoco’s products (e.g., Card Machines, Online Payments, Capital), collaborating closely with Product, Sales, Brand, and Performance teams

• Develop deep customer and market insights—understanding pain points, behaviors, competitive dynamics, and regulatory trends

• Craft compelling value propositions, messaging, and positioning for new and existing products

• Look after pricing and promotions to ensure these align with business goals, market trends and best reflect the value of Yoco’s portfolio

• Take a portfolio view to ensure Yoco’s products are positioned cohesively across pricing, messaging, and overall strategy

• Ensure consistent, high-impact product communication across web, app, email, social, and other marketing channels

• Launch go-to-market campaigns in partnership with Brand, Performance, CRM and external agencies to drive product adoption and new customer acquisition

• Measure success by setting and tracking KPIs for product launches, campaign performance, and customer engagement

• Build bridges between business goals, product roadmaps, customer needs and sales and marketing tactics, to effectively drive revenue growth

• Enable teams internally with product knowledge, training, marketing and sales enablement materials

• Leverage customer insights and data to refine messaging, identify new opportunities, and influence product development

• Work closely with leadership and constantly propose new initiatives to product, in order to improve acquisition, activation, retention and referrals

About you

• 6+ years of experience in product or brand marketing—preferably in a tech, high-growth startup or scale-up environment

• Proven ability to drive integrated GTM plans- developing differentiated messaging, launching products and driving adoption

• Highly analytical and data driven, relying on data to uncover trends, measure impact, and iterate

• Clear track record of working closely with sales and producing sales enablement materials to support them in meeting their goals

• Strong project leader —able to align cross-functional stakeholders and successfully drive execution across multiple teams

• Good storyteller—able to craft compelling narratives that resonate with different audiences

• Exceptional project management, communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to meet deadlines

• Comfortable in a fast-paced environment, managing multiple projects simultaneously

• Ability to juggle different projects at the same time and thrive in a fast paced start-up environment

• Degree in business, marketing, finance or related field

• Fintech or Payments experience would be considered a plus

The people we’re looking for

Growing can be a daunting task and it’s not for everyone. We never stop pushing, we break things to rebuild, we challenge ourselves, and inspire each other to push further.
