Is This Role For You?

For You If
  • You have 4–6 years of B2B growth marketing or demand generation experience (SaaS, healthtech, or B2B-heavy space preferred)
  • You're comfortable with ambiguity, can move fast, and thrive building from zero—not optimizing existing playbooks
  • You speak French or are fluent enough to work with a French leadership team and market
  • You're analytical but scrappy: you can size opportunities, define GTM strategy, AND execute campaigns yourself in month one
  • You believe in mission-driven work and want to own growth end-to-end in a VC-backed startup
Won't Work If
  • You need a large, established marketing team or want a narrow specialist role (product marketing, demand gen only, etc.)
  • You're risk-averse or uncomfortable with founding-stage uncertainty, pivots, and rapid iteration
  • You don't speak French and aren't open to learning or navigating a French-speaking leadership team and market
  • You're looking for immediate high salary or a stable, well-defined role—founding stage moves fast and salary may be below market

Interview Process

1

Initial Conversation

Likely 30 mins with a cofounder; expect questions on your B2B GTM experience, how you think about channel prioritization, and why you're drawn to healthtech/mission-driven work.

2

Growth Strategy Deep Dive

2nd round (60 mins); you'll be asked to outline a 12-month marketing strategy for occupational health B2B in France, including channels, budget, and KPIs. Expect collaborative whiteboarding.

3

Execution & Case Study

Walk through a past campaign you owned; focus on how you measured, iterated, and drove ROI. Be specific on metrics and learnings.

4

Cofounders Meeting

Final round with full founding team to assess fit, ambition, and cultural alignment. Discuss equity, role scope, and immediate priorities.
