Is This Role For You?
- You've built or scaled B2B/B2C demand gen from scratch; comfortable with both strategy and hands-on execution
- You speak fluent WordPress, SEO, and analytics—and can diagnose why traffic isn't converting
- You're equally comfortable shooting/directing video content as you are building a paid ads strategy
- You thrive building small, lean teams and love mentoring junior marketers into shape
- You need a fully staffed marketing department or outsourced agencies to execute your vision
- You're brand-only or creative-only; this role demands full-stack growth (acquisition + content + ops)
- You can't work on-site in the ÃŽle-de-France region or require remote flexibility
- You're risk-averse; this is early-stage marketing at a growing org with tight budgets and high stakes
