Brief Job Overview
USP is seeking a Digital Product Marketing Manager to own and scale the email and lifecycle marketing engine behind our online subscription products, including USP–NF. You will set strategy and execute hands-on across the full email lifecycle, from audience segmentation and journey design through copywriting, A/B testing, deliverability, and performance reporting. Using marketing automation (Marketo or equivalent) and digital campaign expertise, you will drive subscription acquisition, activation, retention, and renewal. This is a high-visibility role that partners directly with Product, Customer Success, and senior leadership.
USP–NF is the most widely referenced source of drug quality standards worldwide, relied on by pharmaceutical manufacturers, quality control labs, regulatory affairs teams, and generic drug developers. This position will shape how USP–NF shows up across digital channels — the email programs, campaigns, and product-marketing content that connect scientists, regulators, and manufacturers with the standards they rely on. You will translate complex technical and regulatory content into clear, compelling narratives for a technical audience.
Remote employees must reside in one of the following states: MD, VA, DC, PA, WV, CA, MI, IL, KS, FL, NC, or MN.
How will YOU create impact here at USP?
As part of our mission to advance scientific rigor and public health standards, you will play a vital role in increasing global access to high-quality medicines through public standards and related programs. USP prioritizes scientific integrity, regulatory excellence, and evidence-based decision-making to ensure health systems worldwide can rely on strong, tested, and globally relevant quality standards.
Additionally, USP’s People and Culture division, in partnership with the Equity Office, invests in leadership and workforce development to equip all employees with the skills to create high-performing, inclusive teams. This includes training in equitable management practices and tools to promote engaged, collaborative, and results-driven work environments.
The Digital Product Marketing Manager has the following responsibilities:
Email & lifecycle
- Own the email strategy and roadmap for USP–NF, including nurture, onboarding, activation, renewal, win-back, product announcement, release-cycle, and monthly newsletter programs, and decide what gets built, tested, and retired.
- Design and build multi-step journeys and dynamic-content programs in Marketo, applying behavioral and lifecycle-stage segmentation to reach the right audience at the right time.
- Write and edit email copy end to end, including subject lines, messaging architecture, and calls-to-action, adapting technical content to different personas.
- Run a disciplined testing program (A/B and multivariate) with documented hypotheses, results, and learnings that shape future campaigns.
- Own list health, deliverability, suppression logic, and database hygiene.
- Define and track KPIs (engagement, conversion, pipeline influence, renewal contribution), build reporting and dashboards, and turn findings into clear recommendations for leadership.
Digital campaign & product marketing
- Plan and execute integrated digital campaigns across email, web, landing pages, organic social, and paid media to drive subscription acquisition, activation, retention, and renewal.
- Apply established USP–NF messaging and positioning to audience-specific assets for pharmaceutical, biotech, and regulatory segments.
- Support persona development, audience segmentation, and market research for USP–NF customer segments (e.g., QC/QA, regulatory affairs, R&D, pharmacopeia specialists).
- Contribute to sales enablement (landing pages, one-pagers, renewal collateral, and email sequences for the field team) and thought-leadership assets.
Cross-functional leadership
- Serve as the marketing lead for USP–NF with Product Management and Customer Success, driving alignment on messaging, timing, audience, and priorities.
- Lead the email and lifecycle program independently, setting priorities, the testing roadmap, and the reporting cadence with minimal day-to-day direction.
- Manage content reviews and approvals across subject-matter experts and stakeholders in a matrixed environment, and escalate and resolve conflicts proactively.
- Mentor and guide junior team members, contractors, and agency partners on email best practices.
Success will be measured by growth in USP–NF audience engagement and marketing-influenced pipeline — including email program performance, subscription acquisition and renewal contribution, campaign-driven awareness, and qualified leads generated.
This role is remote, with an expected travel commitment of up to 10% for conference support.
