If you have been in a Founding position, one of the first in, a Growth Marketeer for a rocket Start Up or Series-backed business, ideally A-C, we want to hear from you!

You\'ll collaborate closely with Founders daily, the board too, Product, Design, and Sales to launch high-converting campaigns, run landing page tests, and turn insights into action. Your work will help fuel predictable pipeline growth in a fast-scaling B2B SaaS environment.

Build and optimise campaigns to hit CAC, pipeline, and payback targets

Conduct deep audience, keyword, and performance analysis to improve targeting and spend efficiency

Write compelling ad copy that speaks to scaling B2B customers

Work with cross-functional teams to test and improve landing pages

Ensure a seamless handoff from marketing-qualified leads to sales demos

Explore and experiment with emerging channels and new ad formats

Manage a growing monthly ad budget (currently significant and scaling quickly)

Who We’re Looking For

You test fast, learn quickly, and constantly iterate based on performance

About You

where systems are still being built

You love the challenge of

owning an entire function

and being the go-to expert

You get energy from
