Our mission at HEY HOLY: Taking dog health to the next level through nutrition. Instead of one-size-fits-all, we focus on breed-specific, functional food – developed with veterinarians and with the goal of enabling every dog to live a long, healthy life.
What began as an idea in 2022 is today a rapidly growing e-Com/DTC subscription model serving over 20,000 dogs. Our 20-person team is set to grow to over 40 by the end of 2026 – now is the perfect time to join.
This is a key management position focused on scaling our core performance marketing channels (especially Paid Social & Paid Search) and unlocking the next stage of profitable growth.
Tasks
- Own and scale our performance marketing channels with a strong focus on Meta & Google – with a strong focus on NC growth within our subscription based E-Com/D2C model.
- Audit the current setup and performance across channels, identify growth levers and define a clear channel strategy and monthly roadmap for key growth initiatives
- Unlock new audiences on Meta & Google through creative/ad strategy, roadmap, and execution excellence (incl. on-platform sales tactics) and continuous conversion optimization for key on-site funnels (incl. LPs) by systematically analyzing channel metrics, on-site KPIs, and conducting structured qualitative creative reviews.
- Drive creative excellence, and message-market-fit optimization across the full customer journey by proactively generating customer insights, regularly exchanging with internal teams and your external network, and conducting ongoing competitor & best practice analyses
- Further build and lead a high-performing in-house team for Meta & Google (incl. creative strategy & high scale in-house production) and establish scalable, efficient processes and a tech-enabled backbone (incl. systematic usage of AI)
- Drive further growth through structurally testing new performance marketing channels (e.g., TikTok, Native, etc.) with clearly defined targets, and execution roadmaps
- Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams (Design, Product/Customer, other Sales Channels, Ops, etc.) to align roadmaps and maximize business impact.
- Stay ahead of platform developments, algorithm changes, and best practices (incl. a sharp eye on the US & UK as leading markets) – and proactively apply them to optimize campaign setup and creative strategy.
