This role owns how leads are captured and enabled for downstream marketing and sales activation.

- Manage, coach, and develop a team responsible for lead capture requirements, intake, operational readiness, measurement, issue resolution, and continuous capability improvement.
- Define and govern lead capture standards, including form strategy, data requirements, taxonomy, consent/privacy considerations, routing inputs, source attribution, handoff requirements, and quality controls.
- Partner with Marketing, Sales, Data & Analytics, Technology, Legal/Compliance, Risk, and business stakeholders to translate business needs into clear capability requirements and delivery plans.
- Own the end-to-end lead capture lifecycle, from prospect entry points through qualification, data enrichment, lead scoring inputs, routing readiness, nurture eligibility, reporting, and sales follow-up enablement.
- Drive functional expansion of lead capture capabilities, including new form experiences, capture channels, campaign intake patterns, event and trigger-based capture, and integrations with marketing automation and CRM platforms.
- Establish scalable processes for intake, prioritization, testing, launch readiness, issue triage, documentation, and ongoing operational support.
- Use data and stakeholder feedback to identify friction points in the prospect/client experience and recommend improvements that increase lead quality, speed to activation, and partner adoption.
- Serve as the subject matter expert and advocate for lead capture best practices, including data quality, user experience, marketing automation, lead scoring inputs, routing readiness, nurture eligibility, and reporting.
- Build trusted relationships across business units to identify overlapping needs, promote reusable solutions, and share practices that improve consistency and reduce duplicative work.
- Partner with technology and platform teams to support integrations across marketing automation, CRM, data, analytics, and reporting environments, ensuring capabilities function reliably and scale appropriately.
- Identify opportunities to apply automation and AI/ML to strengthen lead capture quality and downstream prioritization.
- Communicate capability strategy, progress, risks, decisions, and results to senior leaders and cross-functional partners in a clear, concise, and business-oriented way.
