Jenn Steele

As COO and President of Heinz Marketing, Jenn Steele focuses on making the company, its clients, and their go-to-market teams work better. She brings more than 20 years of experience across marketing, strategy, operations, and company leadership, with a particular talent for finding what’s slowing a business down and turning it into something simpler, faster, and more effective. Jenn has built and led marketing organizations from startup through enterprise scale. She was an early employee at HubSpot, led product marketing for Amazon Simple Email Service at AWS, has served as CMO for multiple technology companies, and was CEO of Kissmetrics through its acquisition in 2023. She is also the co-founder and CEO of SoundGTM, a platform for building and running partnership, referral, and ecosystem programs with less manual work and overhead.

Across those roles, the common thread has been turning strategy into something people can actually execute. Jenn works across positioning, messaging, growth strategy, operations, AI, and organizational design, particularly when the real problem doesn’t fit neatly into one department. She holds a degree from MIT and an MBA from Simmons School of Management.
