About The Position

Neighbor is hiring a Head of Performance Marketing to own paid acquisition across our marketplace and scale revenue at efficient returns. This is a hands-on, player-coach role. You'll work directly with our VP of Marketing and lead a team of three paid performance leads (one each for item storage, vehicle, and supply) to execute, scale, and systematize paid growth. You'll thrive here if you're a scrappy executor who's as comfortable running Meta campaigns as building forecasts, partnering with the Data team on attribution, and coaching your team. You'll own paid like your own P&L: setting budgets by channel and vertical, owning ROAS and revenue targets, and deciding where the next dollar goes as our budget continues to scale. Because Neighbor is a two-sided marketplace with dozens of use cases, paid here is a constant flow of persona and theme tests rather than one evergreen campaign. On any given week, the team might be testing classic car storage creative on Meta, capturing high-intent parking searches in New York City on Google, and running home-organizer creator ads for self storage, all while preparing for seasonal peaks like RV and trailer storage. You'll also lead our push up-funnel into CTV and other offline channels, working with media partners and our Data team to measure what's incremental. This is a high-ownership role at a company disrupting a $500B industry. If you think in numbers and systems and want to build the performance marketing engine for a marketplace that's just getting started, this role could be for you.

Requirements

5+ years of hands-on performance marketing experience at a high-growth direct-to-consumer brand or performance marketing agency
Proven P&L impact: a track record of managing and scaling $5M+ annual paid media budgets with direct accountability for ROAS, CAC, and revenue targets
Meta mastery: deep, hands-on Meta Ads expertise built through high-volume creative testing, plus strong Google Ads experience
Analytical rigor: advanced proficiency in performance analysis, forecasting, attribution modeling, and testing
Technical depth: experience with conversion tracking (pixel and Conversions API), CDP or CRM integrations, and landing page A/B testing
Experience leading or mentoring paid media buyers
A builder's bias: you'd rather run the test yourself quickly and get real feedback than write a deck about it. You move fast even with ambiguity

Hands-on experience with media mix modeling, geo-holdout, or matched-market tests
