About The Position

Director of Growth - Performance Marketing (Full-Time, Remote USA/Canada) Our client is an established outdoor consumer brand with a strong presence across subscription, e-commerce, and major retail channels. Founded over a decade ago, the company pioneered its category and now reaches millions of customers through national retailers and direct-to-consumer platforms. The business is focused on building a lean, profitable, and sustainable growth model, driven by strong fundamentals and measurable impact. Position Overview The Director of Growth Marketing will own profitable customer acquisition across paid and performance-driven channels. This role blends hands-on execution with system building—you will drive results directly while creating scalable frameworks for testing, measurement, and creative iteration. You will be accountable for incremental, P&L-driven growth, grounded in unit economics rather than platform-reported metrics, and will partner closely with Finance, Analytics, Product, and Creative teams to ensure all decisions are measurable and durable.

Requirements

• 6 to 10+ years in performance marketing or growth with ownership of profitable customer acquisition.
• Prior ownership of a growth or acquisition P&L.
• Experience across paid social, paid search, affiliates, and other scalable performance channels.
• Strong measurement and analytics experience (UTMs, GA4/server-side tracking, data warehouse integration).
• Experience driving CRO through site and landing-page experimentation.
• Experience building and leading high-output teams and external partners.
• Youre a hands-on performance marketer who can execute directly, then build systems that scale.
• You prioritize profitable growth and wont scale spend without confidence in incrementality and unit economics.
• Youve owned tracking, attribution, and LTV/CAC models and can defend every number.
• You run tight experiments and translate learning into repeatable processes.
• You have strong creative judgment and know how to scale what works.
• You make clear P&L-driven tradeoffs and communicate crisply with cross-functional partners.
• Youre technically fluent in GA4, server-side tracking, data warehouses (BigQuery or equivalent), ad platforms, and basic SQL.

• Attribution & incrementality - Implement practical attribution and incrementality testing (holdouts, geo/cohort tests, or equivalent) so budget decisions reflect incremental lift and profit.
• Experimentation & optimization - Run a disciplined testing program across creative, audiences, bidding, landing pages, and email. Turn results into repeatable playbooks.
• Creative performance systems - Operationalize creative testing and creative-to-scale workflows that increase the rate of scalable winners and reduce cycle time.
