Head of Marketing and Growth

Hovland Barnes · New York, NY, USA ·

Pay:
120.000
Job type:
Full Time

We are looking for a Head of Marketing & Growth who combines strategic vision with a hands-on execution mindset. This is someone capable of defining the company's long-term growth strategy while also having the technical expertise, agility, and drive to independently execute and operate from day one.

Responsibilities

  • Define and build the company’s overall marketing and growth strategy from the ground up
  • Own and lead the end-to-end lead generation and user acquisition strategy
  • Manage and continuously optimize digital channels, paid media campaigns, organic growth initiatives, content marketing, and strategic partnerships
  • Oversee the marketing budget with a strong focus on ROI, continuously tracking KPIs and performance metrics to drive data-informed decisions
  • Collaborate closely with the Product team to shape the product roadmap, optimize the customer journey, and improve conversion rates
  • Develop compelling content and a strategic messaging ecosystem that positions the brand as a trusted authority in the market
  • Build, lead, and mentor the marketing team as the organization scales
  • Identify new growth opportunities, expansion initiatives, and market opportunities for the business

Requirements

  • You understand what it means to join a founding team. You thrive in fast-paced environments, embrace autonomy, and are motivated by the opportunity to build processes from scratch rather than rely on existing structures
  • You have hands-on experience setting up and managing campaigns, analyzing funnels, optimizing conversion rates (CRO), and writing high-performing marketing copy. You're not an agency manager—you are the person who knows how to execute
  • You think in terms of CAC, LTV, conversion rates, and growth metrics—not likes, impressions, or vanity metrics
  • Strong ability to collaborate directly with founders and product teams, translating technical insights into clear and actionable business strategies

What We Offer

  • Direct impact on the business as a key member of the founding team
  • The opportunity to build and scale the marketing function from the ground up
  • A dynamic, entrepreneurial environment with minimal bureaucracy
  • A high-trust, results-oriented culture focused on ownership, accountability, and execution
