About the Role
We are looking for a Head of Marketing who can take complete ownership of our marketing function and build a strong, recognizable brand in the finance and personal finance space.
This is not a traditional corporate marketing role. We are looking for someone who understands finance, personal finance, digital marketing, design, social media, paid advertising, and startup culture — and can move from an idea to execution extremely quickly.
The ideal candidate is someone who can think, create, launch, analyse and improve without waiting for a large team.
Our Core PrincipleSpeed + Quality + Execution
We value people who can deliver high-quality work quickly, test ideas, learn from results and continuously improve.

- Conduct keyword research.
- Develop campaign structures and landing-page strategies.

We are looking for someone who can create concepts, not just execute instructions.
Responsibilities include:
- Develop unique advertising concepts.
- Create campaign themes and creative directions.
- Develop high-performing ad hooks.

- Landing-page visuals

Experience with tools such as Figma, Canva, Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, After Effects or equivalent tools is preferred.
