Growth Marketing Assistant

A Growth Marketing Assistant Who Keeps Our Growth Engine RunningTL;DR (because attention spans are real):

We're looking for a Growth Marketing Assistant to own the day-to-day execution of our paid social campaigns - primarily Meta, with potential to expand to other platforms over time. Right now, our Growth Lead is managing paid social alongside broader growth strategy - and we need someone to take the operational load off the team. This role exists to do exactly that. You'll handle ad uploads, campaign launches, daily optimisations, naming conventions, and project coordination support for the creative team. Your goal is simple: keep our campaigns running cleanly, our data organised, and our creative testing moving without delays. If you're detail-obsessed, great at following systems, and have some marketing operations experience under your belt, we want to hear from you.

Proficiency in English as a first language is essential for this role.

Time zone: Overlap with the UK team is required - at minimum 9am–12pm UK time

Location: Remote. Eastern Europe or Philippines.

Trial Period: All candidates will complete a paid trial assignment - more details below.

👀 WHO WE ACTUALLY NEED (and who we don’t)This is not for someone who:

• Wants a side hustle or is juggling freelance work.
• Struggles to work independently across multiple tasks without constant check-ins

This is for someone who:

• Has 2+ years experience as a VA, marketing assistant, or operations assistant
• Has worked in a DTC, ecommerce, or startup environment (Big plus!)
• Is exceptionally detail-oriented - catches errors before they happen and maintains consistency under pressure
• Can follow SOPs to the letter, every time, without cutting corners
• Has at least basic familiarity with Meta Ads Manager or similar ad platforms
• Communicates clearly and directly - no fluff, no over-explaining
• Is self-directed and gets things done without hand-holding
• Genuinely enjoys working within systems and structured workflows
• Stays calm when managing high ad volume or multiple concurrent campaigns

🎯 WHAT YOU’LL BE DOINGCampaign execution and ad uploads

• Upload ads into Meta Ads Manager (and other platforms as the role evolves) weekly for creative testing (close to 50 ads per week)
• Launch new campaigns for sales events, product launches, and other initiatives
• Maintain naming conventions across all campaigns and ads to keep our data clean and easy to action
• Ensure every ad that goes live meets our internal standards before it's published

Daily optimisations

• Review active ads daily across testing and evergreen campaigns
• Flag underperforming ads and pause them based on established SOPs
• Monitor budgets and pacing across campaigns and flag anything that needs attention
• Provide clear, concise daily notes so the team can make fast decisions

Creative and project coordination

• Support the creative strategists with brief templates and Asana task management
• Keep the creative testing plan organised and on track in Asana
• Coordinate with agencies and channel partners when quick communication is needed between teams
• Help bridge the gap between the creative team and the ad account so nothing falls through the cracks

🎁 WHAT YOU GET

• Bonus Program - Paid quarterly to the entire team when we hit our objectives
• Fully remote with async flexibility
• Unlimited vacation and sick leave days
• Paid courses, coaching, and personal growth budget to help you level up
• We trust you to own your work and drive results

💼 HOW WE HIRE

We believe in being clear and respectful of your time. Here’s exactly what to expect:

1. Application form: a few short questions to get a feel for your thinking and experience.
2. HR Screening interview: This is a 30 - 45 minute interview to determine initial culture and role fit.
3. Technical Interview: a 60-minute conversation with the hiring team to dig deeper into your experience, mindset, and fit.
4. Paid trial assignment: a realistic task (2–3 days to complete) that reflects the kind of work you’d actually do here.
5. Final Interview: Usually with our CEO, as a final seal of approval.
6. Offer + onboarding: if it’s a match, we move quickly.

💙 WHAT WE BELIEVE (AKA: THE STUFF THAT ACTUALLY MATTERS)

We’re not just building a company. We’re building a culture where great people can do their best work, without the corporate nonsense.

Here are the beliefs that drive everything we do:

• Office politics are destructive, small-minded, and evil.
• We foster cooperation, not competition.
• We believe in open, transparent communication.
• We show appreciation and gratitude, every day.
• The best ideas win, not the loudest person in the room.

If that makes you nod your head (or say “finally!”), you’ll fit right in.
