MarketingGrowth Marketing Manager

We are hiring our first dedicated Consumer Growth Marketing Manager: a hands-on, data-driven marketer who will own the marketing engine behind the Forage app. You will be responsible for scaling the app’s monthly active users (MAU) by an order of magnitude in 2027 by building and scaling acquisition, activation, and retention channels, while telling a clear, trustworthy Forage story to the households we serve.

This is a hybrid role, split between growth marketing (~80% of focus) and brand marketing (~20%). As the Forage app scales, you will manage a larger budget, more sophisticated channels, agency partners, and potentially additional resources.

You will report to the General Manager, Consumer and work closely with Product, Data, Partnerships, Legal, and Design. Over time, the role may also collaborate on broader corporate B2B2C marketing, partnering with our Head of Communications and Content to tell one cohesive Forage story across our lines of business.
