Growth Marketing Lead

About Us

At Near, we help top talent in Latin America find remote roles with US companies. Our mission is to create better lives by fostering a remote work culture that transcends borders.
 

About Our Client

Our client is a fast-growing software holding company that acquires, builds, and scales multiple digital products, primarily in the education technology space.
Their team values ownership, critical thinking, and people who enjoy solving complex problems while building scalable systems.

About the Role

The founder is currently running marketing for the EdTech division directly. With the branch scaling, that's no longer sustainable.

This hire starts as Marketing Lead, works 1-on-1 with the founder for 4-6 months to absorb the full marketing operation, and earns the transition to Head of Marketing by demonstrating they can own and grow it independently.

What you'll own

• Organic social and community management and growth across EdTech brand channels
• SEO strategy in coordination with the Head of SEO
• Content operations — managing editors, creators, and contributors end to end
• Weekly reporting and performance updates across marketing channels
• Competitive research and opportunity identification
• Paid acquisition — learning the engine and improving it over time
• Process documentation and systems that make the team repeatable at scale

What We're Looking For

• 5+ years of marketing experience, ideally with exposure to B2C or consumer-facing products.
• Experience managing a small team, contractors, or agency partners — you know how to get work out of people without micromanaging.
• Strong systems thinking — you have experience building marketing systems, processes, and scalable workflows.
• Strong understanding of SEO, content marketing, organic social media, paid acquisition, and growth marketing principles.
• A builder and improver mindset — you don't just execute what you're told, you come back with better ideas.
• Excellent English, written and spoken.

Compensation and Benefits

• Compensation range: $3,000 – $4,000 USD per month.
  Please note that the final salary offer may vary based on the candidate's seniority, specific skill set, and performance throughout the evaluation and interview process.

• Clear career path to Head of Marketing with compensation growth based on performance.

• Direct mentorship from the Founder during onboarding.

• Flexible remote work environment with an ownership-focused culture.

• 10 business days of PTO + U.S. Holidays.

• Long-term career development and leadership opportunities.
