Marketing & Growth Associate

About the Position

Marketing & Growth Associate

Lead key marketing initiatives with real accountability in a fast-moving, high-expectation environment.

Remote (Ukraine and Europe) | Full-time | Advanced English | Overlap with US time (EST) required (at least 4-5h per day)

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.

Responsibilities

• 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.

Requirements

• 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.

We Offer

• Opportunity to work in a profitable, growing company with $1M+ ARR.
• Work closely with impact-driven tech startups and VCs.
• Core values are Empathy and Excellence.
• Remote-first, distributed across the US and Europe.
• Clear growth path toward senior operator or Head of Marketing-level scope over time.
