Reports to: President

Functions you'll lead: (direct or via managers): Performance Marketing, Brand/Content, and Category & Promotions; partnership with eCommerce Operations and Sales.

The Role

Spotix is an eCommerce leader in Hearth, Patio, and BBQ products.

We’re looking for a Director of Growth Marketing who owns profitable growth across paid, owned, and organic channels—someone who can set strategy, lead and grow a modern digital team, and turn first‑party data, creative, and product assortment into revenue.

You’ll manage the marketing P&L, build high‑leverage programs (acquisition and retention), and uplevel our measurement so decisions are fast and data‑driven.

What you’ll do

Own the growth plan & budget

Set a clear growth roadmap with quarterly Rocks; manage a channel budget across Paid Search/Shopping (incl.

PMax), Paid Social/Video, Display/YouTube, Affiliates/Influencers, and testing into emerging/retail‑media opportunities.

Manage contribution margin and blended MER/CAC→LTV , not just channel ROAS.
Forecast, track, and reallocate spend dynamically based on demand, inventory, and margin.

Lead Performance Marketing

Build a rigorous acquisition engine: value‑based bidding, audience and creative testing, and incrementality experiments.
Oversee product feed health (GMC/Bing), custom labels (margin/inventory/promo), and coverage for Shopping and PMax.
Ensure privacy‑resilient measurement: GA4, server‑side tagging, UTM discipline, and lift/incrementality testing.

Scale Owned‑channel revenue

Grow Email/SMS into a major revenue share via lifecycle automation: welcome, browse/abandon, price‑drop, in‑stock, post‑purchase, replenishment, win‑back, VIP/loyalty and referral.
Drive segmentation using first‑party data (RFM, lifecycle stage, category interest) and deliver creative that matches customer intent.

Raise organic demand & conversion

Oversee Off-page SEO, content strategy, and some on-page components (buying guides, blogs, and video/UGC).

Merchandising & promotions

Build an annual promo calendar with the Category & Promotions function; align with inventory health and margin guardrails.
Use pricing tests and promo mechanics to maximize sell‑through without eroding profit.

Team, partners, & platforms

Coach managers and specialists (Performance, Brand/Content, Category /Promotions); set crisp scorecards and career paths.
Select and manage agencies/tech (ESP/CDP, feed mgmt, A/B testing, analytics/BI, review/UGC, attribution).
Champion creative excellence—rapid iterations of ad concepts, video, and landing pages.

Compliance & brand

Maintain brand consistency across channels; ensure CAN‑SPAM/TCPA/privacy compliance and accessible, inclusive content.

What success looks like (first 6–12 months)

Hit target MER while growing revenue and new customers .
Email/SMS contribution increases meaningfully (e.g., +5 pts of revenue share) with automated flows carrying the majority.
Shopping/PMax efficiency improves via feed quality and value‑based bidding;
\wasted spend from OOS/items with thin margin is reduced.
A single source of truth dashboard and an experimentation roadmap are live.

What you bring

7–10+ years leading digital‑first eCommerce marketing with direct ownership of revenue and budgets; proven record scaling hardgoods or considered‑purchase categories.
Deep hands‑on knowledge of Paid Search/Shopping (incl.

PMax) and Paid Social/Video , and how to orchestrate them with Email/SMS, SEO/Content, and CRO.

Fluency in GA4 , and first‑party‑data strategy; comfort with cohort/LTV analysis and incrementality testing.
Experience managing product feeds and labels
Lifecycle expertise with modern ESP/CDP tools (Klaviyo).
Strong team leadership: hiring, coaching, agency management, and cross‑functional execution with eCommerce Ops and Merchandising.
Excellent planning, budget/forecasting, and communication; bias to action and experimentation.

Nice to have

Background with B2B + B2C models, retail‑media networks, or marketplaces; analytics/BI skills helpful.
