This role sits at the intersection of product, growth, and revenue. It is responsible fordefining Read's narrative, scaling acquisition, and building the systems that convert viral adoption into enterprise expansion.

- Hire and lead PMM, demand generation, content, and design teams
- Stand up the full marketing stack (paid, lifecycle, SEO/AEO, CRM, analytics)
- Manage agencies and external partners for rapid execution
- Build and optimize paid channels (search, social, programmatic) as a key growth lever
- Improve customer acquisition cost (CAC), conversion, and LTV through experimentation
- Expand beyond heavy organic/viral reliance into predictable acquisition
- Optimize onboarding, activation, and lifecycle marketing
- Convert bottoms-up users into teams and enterprise customers
- Partner with product on growth loops (calendar connect, reports, virality)
- Bridge PLG + sales motion (enterprise upsell, CRM integrations)
- Support sales with demos, collateral, and verticalized use cases
- Help define when and how to scale enterprise GTM vs. self-serve
- Own funnel metrics: acquisition, activation, retention, monetization
- Build dashboards and attribution models across channels
- Drive toward efficient, scalable growth (CPA targets, conversion lift)
What You'll Need
- Proven VP-level (or strong Director ready to step up) in high-growth SaaS or AI
- Experience shaping category narratives for emerging or AI-driven products
- Deep experience in PLG + paid acquisition + product marketing
- Track record scaling from strong organic traction to market leadership
- Strong operator: can go from strategy → execution quickly
- Experience building teams from zero and managing agencies
- Comfortable with ambiguity; knows when to wait for product signal vs. scale spend
- Data-driven with strong intuition on growth levers and positioning
- Strong background in communications, PR, or storytelling at scale (not just performance marketing)
- Ability to operate as both Head of Growth and Head of Comms in early stages
What Success Looks Like
- Clear, differentiated market narrative and positioning
- Scalable paid + lifecycle engine complementing viral growth
- Improved conversion across onboarding, activation, and paid funnels
- Strong alignment between product, sales, and marketing
- Marketing evolves from nonexistent → repeatable growth engine
