The Demand Generation Manager we are seeking will be one of the leaders of marketing for Tesla’s Energy division in Japan. The role will primarily focus on generating leads for the residential Powerwall battery and will lead and execute marketing initiatives tailored to the Japanese market, including social media marketing and events.
You will be responsible for planning and executing initiatives, as well as analyzing results and making improvements. The role has a broad scope of responsibility, and you can find great satisfaction in seeing your efforts directly translate into results. The opportunity to scale up the Japanese market through your own work is another distinctive appeal that other companies may not offer.
In your day-to-day work, you will operate under the leadership of Japan’s Demand Generation Team Lead and work closely with team members in APAC, the United States, and Europe. The team has a culture of actively supporting one another beyond individual areas of responsibility, making this an ideal role for someone who wants to achieve results as part of a team.
Communication in English is essential, but you should not be deterred by your English ability. Understanding the Japanese market and culture, as well as Japanese-language proficiency, is even more important.
As Demand Generation Manager, you will develop social media marketing strategies for the Japanese market and lead and execute related initiatives.
You will work to increase awareness of the Tesla Energy and Tesla Powerwall brands and products, and generate demand and leads through Tesla’s own channels and its network of Certified Installers. You will also collaborate with the Sales team to advance marketing initiatives that support the Certified Installer network.
Your responsibilities will span a wide range of activities, from social media marketing to events throughout Japan. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys developing and executing data-driven strategies and delivering tangible business impact and growth.
To succeed at Tesla, you must thrive in a fast-paced environment, respond flexibly and positively to constant change, and work as part of a high-performing global marketing team.
Your day-to-day work will require collaboration with Tesla’s global teams and Certified Installers. You will therefore need to build trust and work effectively with both internal and external stakeholders.
Under the leadership of Japan’s Demand Generation Team Lead, you will work closely with the team to drive social media marketing programs that increase awareness, generate demand, and provide leads to the Certified Installer network. You will develop social media strategies for end customers and the Certified Installer network (B2B), designing the full process from increasing Powerwall awareness through to lead generation. You will collaborate with global teams to localize insights from social media initiatives in other markets for Japan. You will execute email marketing programs for lead nurturing, cross-selling, and upselling. You will lead the planning, organization, operation, and analysis of events and expos held throughout Japan. Together with the team, you will manage quarterly budgets, forecast leads, and develop marketing plans. You will ensure that brand guidelines are followed throughout Tesla Energy and the Certified Installer network.
