Is This Role For You?

For You If
  • 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
Won't Work If
  • 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 ĂŽle-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
