There are nearly 1.3 billion young people (aged 15-24) in the world. 1 billion of them want an extra job. Until now, no other company has made this problem their own. Our app, Yepstr is now Sweden's largest platform for simple and safe teenage-jobs like babysitting, tutoring and dog-minding. We now need your help as our future Head of Marketing to put the last pieces into place before we shift focus from Sweden to the World.
We just started looking for our Head of Marketing, and maybe that's you? 🧐
You would join Yepstr at a super exciting growth-phase, early enough to really make your mark. Through your work you will help young people to get their first job and at the same time make the everyday life better for families.
As our Head of Marketing you will own and drive our main growth channels. Currently SEO and Performance Marketing (via FB and GA) but maybe there are others hiding :)
For SEO we currently have three content writers, so your job would be to identify the keyword strategies (and the sequence of keywords we should target) so the team keep creating great content that outperforms our competitors. Also ensuring our website is technically perfect so that we succeed in the hyperlocal SEO world (for example "babysitting karlstad".
For Performance your job will be to own the creation of audiences and placing the right material in the right step to guide them down the funnel. You will begin with a monthly budget that will increase as reach our targeted ROAS. Initially we would want to see you testing and iterating on the ads yourself so you really understand what works and doesn't.
Furthermore, since your role is a lot about understanding the USPs we will often look to you for insights that can be applied in our product development.
To enjoy and thrive in this role we think you are a curious and analytical person. You've probably worked within an analytical field before, maybe search or performance marketing or something similar. Maybe you've spent some time at an agency and worked for several different companies. Our dream candidate would also have some sense of communication or branding, so that our communication is well-thought-through and really breathes "Yepstr".
