This is about strategy, firepower, and an unrelenting hunger to bend data into dominance.We’re seeking a Growth Marketing Team Lead who can take the chaos of multiple platforms, channels, and audiences and orchestrate them into one cohesive, ROI-driven symphony. You’ll manage a team, shape performance strategies, and experiment with cutting-edge tools to break through in regulated, competitive markets. And you won’t just keep pace with change, you’ll create it.This role is not for the timid. It’s for the restless operator who loves the numbers but never forgets the humans behind them. A thinker, a doer, a disruptor.What You’ll Command
