Build the Growth Engine From Zero

We are hiring a Founding Growth Lead to design, build, and scale our growth function across both B2C and B2B segments.

This is not a maintenance role. It is a foundational build.

You will define the strategy, implement the systems, and create a repeatable revenue engine that drives measurable commercial impact. You will sit close to leadership and operate with high autonomy, owning growth as a core business function.

The Role

You will lead end-to-end growth across acquisition, activation, retention, and monetisation, translating commercial goals into scalable execution.

Core Responsibilities

  • Define and execute a full-funnel growth strategy aligned to revenue targets
  • Build and scale performance channels across paid, owned, referral, and lifecycle
  • Establish experimentation frameworks and embed structured testing
  • Own key commercial metrics including CAC, LTV, payback, contribution margin, and growth efficiency
  • Develop reporting infrastructure and dashboards for rapid decision making
  • Identify new revenue opportunities including partnerships and channel expansion
  • Partner with leadership to prioritise initiatives based on impact and resource constraints

What We’re Looking For

  • 3-6+ years in growth, performance, or revenue roles within early-stage or scaling businesses
  • Experience building systems from first principles rather than optimising mature ones
  • Clear ownership of revenue and unit economics, not just channel metrics
  • Strong commercial judgement and comfort operating with imperfect data
  • Hands-on execution capability across performance marketing channels
  • Ability to prioritise under constraint and navigate ambiguity
  • Bias toward action and measurable outcomes

You’ll Thrive If You Are

  • A strong executor who can identify high-impact opportunities, initiate them independently, and drive them through to measurable outcomes
  • Highly quantitative and metrics-driven, using data to prioritise initiatives, evaluate trade-offs, and optimise performance
  • Experienced in growth within early-stage or scaling businesses, with hands-on exposure to building systems and processes from the ground up rather than inheriting mature infrastructure
  • Alternatively, a commercially minded consultant with at least three years’ experience who is now seeking ownership, accountability, and direct impact

Why This Role

This is an opportunity to shape the trajectory of a business at a foundational stage.

You will not inherit a finished engine.

You will design and build it.

For the right operator, this is a rare chance to define growth as a core function, influence strategy at leadership level, and create long-term enterprise value.

IB, consulting experience is highly regarded.
