Director of Growth Marketing

2 weeks ago


Gisborne, Gisborne, New Zealand The Hired Guns Full time

Start with an amazing product folks never knew they needed, but are about to discover they can't live without. Add a slick direct-to-consumer e-commerce channel that's driving hypergrowth. But even as this category-busting company is blowing out all of its most optimistic sales projections, they're smart enough to know they need a bangin' Director of Growth Marketing to help them build a solid, strategic, data-driven foundation for the future

The Nitty Gritty
The backstory on the organization and why they need to hire you

This well-funded D2C startup is on the fast-track to mega-success, fueled by a dynamic founder and a world-class leadership team. Up until now, marketing has consisted largely of social and content, spearheaded by the founder and the CEO. They know that now, when they're committed to 2x growth year-on-year, they need to level up their marketing capability. And yes, you guessed it, that's where you, their new Director of Growth Marketing, come in.

You'll have the singular challenge and opportunity of assembling your own superhero team of marketers (because you're smart enough to know that if you try to do it all yourself, you'll never make it). In doing so, you'll bring structure and data awareness to marketing operations, balancing a spirit of irrepressible creativity with a solid connection to financial, sales, and product objectives.

Your job is to provide the top-level strategic brain that ties the whole spectrum of marketing activities together, leading from the front while avoiding the inevitable temptation to be too in-the-weeds. You'll lead the development of the marketing calendar, establish quarterly forecasting, build data-gathering and reporting mechanisms, and oversee the work of your team to ensure flawless execution of all online and offline programs.

Why You?
How you'll know if you're a fit...

You've got 7 or more years of performance marketing experience and are currently at or above the senior marketing manager level. Key to differentiating yourself is that you've got a compelling "growth story": we want to hear how you yourself have contributed directly and meaningfully to significant growth in customer base and revenue for innovative or iconoclastic direct-to-consumer products.

We're looking for a marketing leader who has a grip on the whole marketing mix and can direct all the components, online and offline, but we're open to a bunch of possible pedigrees: performance marketing, content marketing, or growth marketing career tracks could all be fantastic training grounds.

You've got meaningful management experience (if you've never had at least five direct reports, this might not be for you). You're a charismatic story-teller who nonetheless keeps a close eye on data-driven reality. You've got start-up experience and a drive to grow your brand even if it means coloring outside the lines. Last but not least, you've got a sense of humor, a touch of irreverence, and a flair for the unconventional.

The Inside Skinny
Why you should quit your job right now and join this organization

This role will give a seasoned marketer the opportunity to really make their bones by taking ownership of an entire D2C marketing strategy for a bold product with a distinct voice and value proposition. It's an opportunity for the right person to get a real seat at the table and use the hunches they've accumulated over the years to build something truly career-defining.

The Hired Guns does not and will not discriminate in considering and referring candidates for employment, or in its treatment or advancement of its employees, and will not tolerate harassment, on the basis of race, color, religion, gender (including gender identity and expression), sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, or any other status protected by applicable federal, state or local law.
