Platform Product Marketing Manager
The ultimate source for official answers about a business online should be the business itself. However, when consumers ask questions on company websites, too often they are left in the dark with wrong answers. Yext (NYSE: YEXT), the Search Experience Cloud, solves this problem by organizing a business's facts so it can provide official answers to consumer questions — wherever people search. Starting with the company website, then extending across search engines and voice assistants, businesses around the world, like Taco Bell, Marriott, and Jaguar Land Rover—as well as organizations like the U.S. State Department—trust Yext to radically improve the search experience on their websites and across the entire search ecosystem.
The Yext Search Experience Cloud is an innovative platform that provides brands with the tools they need to build outstanding customer experiences! To highlight the features of the platform and bring the value to life for developers, administrators, and partners, we’re seeking a Platform Product Marketing Manager to join our Platform Product Marketing Team in New York, NY.
