Description: CommonBond is building a new kind of value-driven financial services company.We are beginning our mission by tackling the broken student lending market, and changing the way people think about student loans with lower borrowing costs, a state-of-the art technology platform, and high touch customer advocacy.We are backed by by great investors, have a killer team, and are growing exponentially.More info on recent growth here: #URL_724362e31e8b9c5b4d975d5c95e080c2454b4580fe904efe6501a07862bf7c5f#We’re looking for an analytical marketing expert with an unmistakable instinct for driving acquisition activity, strong technical and analytical prowess, and a relentless drive to deliver results. You’ve been called a “growth hacker”, a “go getter”, “savvy”, “smart”, “systematic” and maybe even "scrappy." There aren’t many people like you; just people who want to be like you. You know you’re talented, because you’re data driven and the results are on your side. But you’re also humble, and you’re looking to focus your talents on something you believe in. You have a history of growing user bases because you simply find a way to make things happen. You have a special skill for planning, but a scorn for using it. You are driven by a plan, but not led by it. You have a bias for immediate action and an uncanny instinct for channeling it effectively. Tomorrow is too late; yesterday is always on time. Your success may have come while running a single website business or from delivering exceptional results within an agency or corporate environment. Hopefully you’ve done this before at another startup and are ready for your next challenge. Regardless of where you learned your craft, you are driven by hitting goals and yearn for your success to be measured by growth metrics. CommonBond is a fast-paced, exciting environment where new opportunities emerge every day. The Growth Hacker role will be an early hire on a growing team at an innovative company that is on the cusp of scale. You will be the reason the company scales. You are definitely invigorated, maybe a little anxious, and above all excited by that fact.You will drive customer acquisition growth.To do so, you will implement campaigns across multiple online channels, including SEM, Social, Display, Retargeting, Content, Email, and Affiliate. You will design and implement A/B tests and other analytical frameworks for your campaigns. We wouldn’t be surprised if you put your technical skills to use to write a few lines of code that help you implement campaigns and better understand the results.But unlike any other such roles you’ve heard of, you will also use your smarts, and your proven entrepreneurial spirit, to make things happen. Your disdain for meetings and heavy bias towards action will move the company forward. You will go rogue because you have the wherewithal to act on proven instinct without anyone or anything getting in your way. Time is not your friend, urgency is your default, and action is your north star.You love our customers. You want to share our products with them because of how helpful they will be. You wake up every morning overwhelmed at the thought of ensuring enough people take advantage of what CommonBond has to offer. Feeling overwhelmed drives you, rather than paralyzes you. In support of your acquisition goals, you will: Develop a roadmap for identifying, testing, and optimizing new channels.Analyze and report on all marketing programs with focus on ROI optimization.Work with design and production team to develop marketing units, ads, emails and collateral.Above all, results will determine your success. You’ll need only enough analysis and reporting to demonstrate the success you’re driving in the business.
