Performance Marketing Lead / Founding Marketeer

Location : San Francisco or NYC, Hybrid in either location

We’re looking for a Performance Marketing Lead to own and scale paid acquisition across Google, Meta, and LinkedIn. This is a rare opportunity to build a demand engine from the ground up — owning the full performance marketing funnel, from strategy and creative through to execution and optimisation.

If you have been in a Founding position, one of the first in, a Growth Marketeer for a rocket Start Up or Series-backed business, ideally A-C, we want to hear from you!

You\'ll collaborate closely with Founders daily, the board too, Product, Design, and Sales to launch high-converting campaigns, run landing page tests, and turn insights into action. Your work will help fuel predictable pipeline growth in a fast-scaling B2B SaaS environment.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Take full ownership of paid media across key platforms (Google, Meta, LinkedIn)
  • Build and optimise campaigns to hit CAC, pipeline, and payback targets
  • Conduct deep audience, keyword, and performance analysis to improve targeting and spend efficiency
  • Write compelling ad copy that speaks to scaling B2B customers
  • Work with cross-functional teams to test and improve landing pages
  • Ensure a seamless handoff from marketing-qualified leads to sales demos
  • Explore and experiment with emerging channels and new ad formats
  • Manage a growing monthly ad budget (currently significant and scaling quickly)

Who We’re Looking For

  • You’ve spent at least 3 solid years owning paid acquisition for a B2B SaaS company or a successful B2C / D2C brand , which has had great success across North America (something which has exceeded downloads and / or sales)
  • You’ve worked in a venture-backed or PE-backed business (Series A–C preferred)
  • You’ve helped build marketing from the ground up, not just optimised what already exists
  • You know how to scale spend, lower CAC, and grow a qualified pipeline
  • You’re hands-on in Google Ads, Meta Ads Manager, and LinkedIn Campaign Manager
  • You’re both analytical and creative — able to interpret data and write standout ad copy
  • You test fast, learn quickly, and constantly iterate based on performance
  • About You

  • You thrive in early-stage or scaling SaaS environments or B2B / D2C Brand, where systems are still being built
  • You love the challenge of owning an entire function and being the go-to expert
  • You get energy from building and iterating , not just maintaining
  • You’re excited by the idea of being a strategic partner to founders, product, and sales
  • You believe performance marketing is one of the most powerful levers for growth — and you love proving it
  • Competitive OTE in the $200K–$280K base, + performance bonus on top
  • Equity package in a fast-growing, venture-backed SaaS company
  • High autonomy, direct impact, and a seat at the table as the business scales
  • If of interest, please apply!

    Thanks,

    Team Amberes
