Performance marketing is now a core growth lever, and this role will sit at the centre of that journey. This is the first senior performance marketing hire, reporting into the executive leadership team, with full ownership of strategy, execution, and team build-out. If you’ve scaled performance marketing in a fast-paced, high-growth environment, and enjoy combining strategy with hands-on delivery, this is a rare opportunity to build something from the ground up.

  • Partner cross-functionally with Product, Data, CRM and Marketing teams
  • Build and hire a high-performing in-house team as the function evolves
  • Implement structured testing frameworks across channels, creative and audiences
  • Explore and apply AI-driven approaches to improve performance and efficiency

Requirements

  • Proven track record scaling performance marketing in high-growth D2C, app-led, marketplace or subscription businesses
  • Deep hands-on expertise across paid channels (Google, Meta, app acquisition)
  • Strong commercial mindset with experience managing large budgets and driving profitable growth
  • Experience building or evolving performance marketing functions
  • Strong understanding of attribution, incrementality, LTV and unit economics
  • Confident communicator with experience influencing senior stakeholders
  • Experience managing agencies and transitioning to in-house models

What we offer

  • Direct exposure to executive leadership and business-critical decision making
  • Opportunity to build and scale a performance function from scratch
