Growth Manager at Awesome Motive

Description

As a Growth Manager, you will be responsible for owning the end to end growth motion for one of our brands. This is a hands on operator role where you will set the strategy, ship the work, measure outcomes, and decide what to build next, leveraging AI as a powerful tool. You will not be briefing agencies or waiting for tickets; you will be actively doing the work. The brand you join is an established product with a real audience and existing channels, so this is not a launch position. Your primary focus will be on email and lifecycle marketing, coupled with conversion rate optimization (CRO). Content, social media, and automation will support these central efforts.

To love this role, here’s the type of person you are:

• Hands-on operator: You prefer to execute the work yourself rather than delegating.
• AI-first workflow: You embrace AI to achieve high velocity, completing tasks that previously took a team a week in a day or two, while maintaining high quality.
• Velocity matters: Your success in the first 60 to 90 days will be measured by your acceleration of output, shipping multiple initiatives, quickly learning from them, and applying those learnings.
• Self-directed: You proactively bring data backed ideas to leadership and do not wait for instructions on what to test next.
• Curious about new tools: You actively explore new tools, adopt those that enhance your work, and discard those that do not, rather than waiting for industry standards.

Common responsibilities include (but are not limited to):

• Email and lifecycle marketing: Serve as the central engine, managing newsletters, lifecycle automations, segmentation, and A/B testing across subject lines, copy, calls to action, send times, and offers. For many of our brands, email is the highest leverage channel for significant wins.
• Conversion rate optimization: Conduct hypothesis driven experiments across landing pages, sign up flows, pricing pages, and checkout processes. Test, analyze, and decide.
• Content and copy production: Create blog posts, landing pages, email copy, lead magnets, and social content, shipped rapidly with AI leverage.
• Social presence: Manage social media channels relevant to your brand, applying platform native treatments, hooks, formats, and pacing.
• Marketing automation workflows: Build and maintain automation workflows using tools like n8n, Make, Zapier, or equivalents, connecting tools into self running systems.
• Weekly analytics review: Analyze data from GA4, email platform reporting, and channel dashboards. Identify successes, iterate on underperforming elements, and present data backed ideas to leadership.
• Collaboration: Work closely with the brand General Manager, product team, support, SEO, and the central Awesome Motive growth team.

Requirements

• Operator background: 5+ years of growth marketing experience as the sole or founding marketer at a B2B SaaS company, or as an operator within a small growth team with full execution ownership.
• Real AI-augmented work: Demonstrate specific workflows, daily tools used, and outputs made possible by AI, beyond general research.
• Email and lifecycle depth: Proven experience owning an email program at a SaaS company, understanding key metrics and having launched programs that moved them.
• CRO chops: Experience running real experiments on live pages with real data, capable of discussing both successes and failures.
• Full-stack execution: Ability to carry a piece of work from idea to live implementation (e.g., copy, landing page, email, campaign, analysis) independently.
• Hungry over knowledgeable: A quick learner of new tools, willing to drop old ones without ego, and continuously upgrade your skill set.
• Sharp communication: Ability to work asynchronously with US based teams daily, with clear, concise writing and updates, minimizing the need for meetings.
• Time zone: Minimum 9 AM to 1 PM EST overlap. Some brands may have stricter overlap requirements.
• If your strongest work was within a small growth team rather than truly solo, but you owned a meaningful end to end slice, please explain your contributions. The focus is on real execution ownership, not just titles.

Bonus points if you also have:

• Public proof of AI-augmented work: A newsletter, YouTube channel, X presence, Substack, podcast, or personal site demonstrating your workflow.
• Zero-to-one experience: Successfully built and scaled an audience, brand, community, or product from scratch.
• WordPress ecosystem familiarity: Ability to set up a site, install plugins, and ask informed questions, as several of our brands serve WordPress site owners.
• Specific revenue or growth wins: Quantifiable achievements such as ARR contribution, conversion lift, list growth, audience growth, or revenue per send improvements.
• A point of view on marketing's future with AI: Demonstrated active investment in this direction.
