As a growth marketer, you’ll drive user and revenue growth through data, experimentation, and full-funnel thinking. This means:

• Running acquisition campaigns (paid, organic, referral, partners)
• Improving onboarding flows to reduce drop-off
• Designing and executing lifecycle/email campaigns
• Building landing pages and performing CRO tests
• Measuring impact and doubling down on what works

You’ll work closely with founders and product teams to prioritise the highest-leverage opportunities and move fast to test, learn, and scale.

These are high-ownership roles. You’ll have the freedom to try things, fail fast, and grow fast.

If you’re looking to accelerate your startup marketing career and want to work in a high-ownership growth role, Jumpstart is for you.

We typically look for people from one of these backgrounds:

• Recent grads with a strong side hustle or internship experience - maybe you grew a community, ran performance campaigns, or built something yourself.
• Corporate marketers (~1–4 years) who want more ownership and impact than a big company can offer.
• Startup/scale-up marketers (~1–4 years) ready for the next move, with hands-on experience and a desire to own strategy.

We care less about exact job titles and more about what you've done. Built something? Failed at something? Grown something from scratch? We want to hear about it.
