Job Description
Own US customer acquisition performance at IONOS, with an AI-first, hands-on approach to driving efficient new-customer inflow.
Responsibilities
- Own US customer acquisition efficiency, including CAC and new-customer inflow
- Own the end-to-end journey from ad unit to conversion, covering creative, channel, landing page, offer, and measurement
- Open and scale acquisition channels the US hasn’t fully tapped, including TikTok, Meta, Instagram, YouTube pre-roll, podcast, CTV, and creator/affiliate
- Produce and execute creative (image, video, carousels), coordinate landing pages and offers, set up and buy channels, and measure impact end to end
- Drive blended CAC toward target while meeting inflow goals, channel by channel
- Stand up and scale TikTok, Meta, IG, YouTube pre-roll, podcast, CTV, and creator/affiliate using short, disciplined test loops
- Use generative AI for creative and copy, plus LLMs/analytics for daily optimization
- Lead creator marketing by scripting/storytelling, briefing creators, and turning creator output into testable paid assets
- Partner with central German teams as you would with an agency and collaborate with the Website A/B PO on landing pages and conversion
- Run daily optimization loops and informally coach two early-career teammates
- Set the pace for a senior seat in a small pod
Requirements
- 3–6 years in performance/growth marketing, ideally direct-to-consumer / eCommerce or affiliate
- Experience managing a paid budget and being measured on efficiency
- Comfort producing, analyzing, and optimizing using LLMs and generative/creative tools at pace
- Cross-functional comfort across creative, channel buying, landing pages, offers, and analytics; capable of going deep in an ad account and a spreadsheet
- Owner mentality: treat the budget like it’s your own money and the outcome like it’s your own business
- Hands-on execution plus ability to raise the bar for early-career teammates and serve as a sounding board
- Matrix-comfortable: get things done across teams and time zones without formal authority
- Work from the Center City Philadelphia office at least 3X a week
- Occasional international travel to meet global colleagues and share ideas
Technologies
- Generative AI
- LLMs
- Analytics
- A/B testing
How success is measured
- First 90 days: daily optimization loops live on at least one new channel; clear view of where CAC is really going and the top 3 levers to improve it
- 6 months: two or more new channels running with repeatable test → measure → iterate → scale motion, plus a demonstrable CAC-improvement trajectory
- 12 months: blended CAC moving convincingly toward target while inflow targets are met; a playbook others can run
Team approach
- Own outcomes, not activity
- Move fast with launch → measure → learn → adjust, often within days
- Continuous, direct feedback with no blame, rescuing, or scorekeeping
- AI-first working style with support to build capability
- Coaching included; the GM is hands-on and invested in growth
