The Growth Marketing Strategist develops and executes growth marketing strategies for clients, assembles teams, manages projects, and builds networks with marketing leaders.
About Right Side Up About the Role
Right Side Up is a collective of premium marketing talent—with all of the marketing chops, and none of the agency fluff. We’re trusted by the most respected early-stage ventures, the fastest-growing tech companies, and well-established Fortune 500 teams to do one thing better: Growth. We have over 250+ clients including Stitch Fix, Sephora, Yelp, Sun Basket, Crunchbase, DoorDash, Calm, and more.
The Growth Marketing Strategist works on the Marketing Strategy team where we advise clients (you can see some of our clients on our website, including DoorDash, Stitch Fix, Uber, Tabasco and Stripe) on growth marketing strategy, identify resource gaps on their teams and determine together if Right Side Up can deploy the right marketing talent to help achieve their goals. Sometimes clients know exactly what they need, and sometimes they look to us to tell them what to do.
Responsibilities
- Strategize with clients to develop full-funnel growth marketing strategies and scope out the work
- Assemble individuals or teams of folks from Right Side Up to help the client achieve their objectives

Qualifications
- 7-10 years of experience in in-house marketing roles, and/or agency experience, focusing on growth.

Our greatest successes in this role have t-shaped backgrounds -- depth in performance marketing with strong marketing chops in channels like paid social and search, and breadth across other functional areas such as e-mail marketing or SEO.

- Strong project management skills with an ability to juggle many constantly-shifting priorities
- Proven experience managing a team.
- Ability to communicate effectively with and relate to clients
- A flexible mindset and are willing to work across multiple verticals and industries- our clients range from SAAS to CPG to D2C and beyond.
