They are seeking a Marketing Growth Operator to manage and optimize paid channels, utilizing data and AI to drive subscriber growth and improve ROI. This role requires a blend of creativity, analytical skills, and a deep understanding of full-funnel marketing strategies.
Responsibilities
- Own 3–5 paid channels end-to-end — launch, scale, and optimize campaigns to hit subscriber and ROI goals
- Manage bidding, budgets, and audience targeting, adjusting strategy as performance and platform conditions shift
- Assess and test new channels, partners, and ad formats — always asking what the next big channel for us could be
- Make decisions on a lifetime-value basis, not just front-end cost — LTV-based thinking is core to how this role operates
- Understand how each channel feeds the broader subscription funnel
- Bring testing ideas across the full funnel — copy, product, offers, instant-upgrade flows, pricing — not just inside the ad platform
- Use data rigorously to identify opportunities others miss, and translate them into action
- Lead creative generation for your channels — a wide variety of ads, formats, and angles
- Test into what works and iterate quickly; comfortable writing and testing your own ad copy
- Be highly data fluent — measure and analyze performance across channels and surface actionable insight
- Understand our tools and data flow well enough to spot when something isn’t tracking or behaving as expected
- Run rigorous, well-structured tests with a relentless drive to beat the control
- Use AI tools daily across creative generation, copywriting, data analysis, and more to move faster and test more
- Partner with our tech team to build and improve AI workflows and automations for your channels as they automate parts of channel management
- Bring a point of view on where AI can take on routine execution and where human judgment still wins, and help us draw that line as the tooling matures
- Stay current on AI capabilities relevant to paid media, creative, and analytics, and bring the best of it back to the team
Skills
- Demonstrated depth in paid channel management — hands-on experience owning and scaling channels such as Google, Bing, Meta, and native/prospecting platforms (Taboola, Dianomi, LiveIntent, and similar)
- Hands-on experience using AI in your marketing work — AI workflows, AI for data analysis, AI for creative generation — and the appetite to push automation further
- Excellent analytical and quantitative skills, with the ability to turn analysis into action and a relentless drive to beat the control
- A customer-centric mindset, collaborative attitude, and the motivation to work entrepreneurially on a lean, dynamic team
- Experience marketing subscription products and thinking in terms of LTV, retention, and funnel economics
- Familiarity with direct-response marketing — advertorials, VSLs, order pages, and conversion optimization
- Exposure to advertising under compliance and legal limitations
- Experience and excitement around the world of investing
