We’re looking for a Marketing & Growth Associate who operates with very high standards, moves fast, and thinks clearly. This is not a pure execution-type role. It’s for someone who wants real ownership, sharp thinking, and close exposure to how founders actually build companies.
You’ll work closely with our leadership team and support go-to-market, positioning, and founder-facing communications across A-Players and selected portfolio companies. What You’ll Do * Own marketing and communication initiatives end to end. From raw input to final delivery. * Turn complex ideas, notes, or numbers into clear, founder-ready messages (LinkedIn, emails, decks, landing pages, internal docs). * Write and edit content on behalf of founders, preserving tone, intent, and brevity. * Support positioning, go-to-market initiatives, and curated events (e.g. founder dinners, partner or investor events). * Research startups, markets, events, or ecosystems and synthesize insights into actionable angles. * Manage timelines, follow-ups, and execution details without being chased. * Proactively spot gaps, risks, or misalignment and suggest concrete next steps. * Raise the bar continuously. If something feels mediocre, you’ll fix it.
This is not a social media or content-calendar role. It sits at the intersection of marketing, sales, and client relations. Mandatory Hard Skills / Experience * You’re comfortable learning new tools quickly and navigating different systems. Specific tools matter less than your ability to figure things out fast. * Marketing systems understanding: understands what CRM, funnels, attribution, and conversion mean. * Business prioritization: able to triage multiple requests and make trade-offs based on business impact. * Research & synthesis: quickly turns raw information into clear insights and actionable next steps. * Founder-level writing: concise, high-judgment communication; able to write on behalf of founders (LinkedIn comments, DMs, emails). * Analytics literacy: able to read and interpret basic metrics (traffic, conversions, engagement, funnel stages) and use data to support decisions, not just report it. * Actively uses AI in daily workflows (research, synthesis, structuring), but does not outsource judgment, positioning, or creative thinking to AI.
Nice to Have * Previous experience in marketing roles is a strong plus. * Experience with productivity, research, CRM, and analytics tools (e.g. Notion/Docs, HubSpot, GA4, Crunchbase, LinkedIn) is an advantage * Experience in startups, consulting, ops, or founder-support roles. * Exposure to events, partnerships, or go-to-market initiatives (event platforms (Luma/Eventbrite) * Strong attention to detail and follow-through.
What Success Looks Like * Founders rely on you to turn vague inputs into sharp outputs. * Communication becomes clearer and more consistent. * Key initiatives (marketing, partnerships) move forward without reminders. * Risks are flagged early, with proposed solutions. * Your work supports growth, partnerships, and revenue-generating efforts.
What This Role Actually Is You will split your focus between: * Business Associate (BA) initiatives — founder-facing positioning, communications, partnerships, curated events * Recruitment go-to-market support — messaging, role positioning, candidate-facing content, founder communication
This is a dynamic, high-context environment. We expect comfort with ambiguity and fast-moving priorities. Hiring Process * Work Samples * Initial screening interview with recruiter * Test task * Deep-dive interview with leadership * Final culture conversation (short conversations with leadership team members)
We maintain a high bar and optimize for long-term fit over speed. We prioritize personality, judgment, and ownership. Why A-Players * We’re a profitable, growing company with $1M+ ARR. * We work only with impact-driven tech startups and VCs. * Our core values are Empathy and Excellence. We take both seriously. * We’ve built our own methodology to identify true A-Players. * We work closely with top founders backed by leading VCs. * We’re remote-first, distributed across the US and Europe. * This role offers a clear growth path toward senior operator or Head of Marketing-level scope over time.
If you’re sharp, fast, and want real responsibility early in your career — this will stretch you in the best way.
If you’re looking for narrow tasks or heavy hand-holding — this is not the right role.
