About the role

  • For 30 years we've been helping people make better investment decisions through transparency, education, and Foolish fun.
  • We're a fast-moving, collaborative team that values high-quality work, curiosity, and initiative.
  • We care deeply about what we do, and we're driven by the impact our work has on real people's financial futures.

Responsibilities

  • Own the strategic direction of our paid acquisition portfolio across channels such as Google, Bing, Meta, and native/prospecting platforms (Taboola, Dianomi, LiveIntent, and similar).
  • Manage and develop a team of Growth Operators, providing coaching, direction, and support to maximize individual growth and team performance.
  • Develop growth strategies grounded in member behavior, subscription economics, and long-term business impact.
  • Partner with engineering, data, and technical teams to shape the future of our acquisition engine.
  • These systems support channel management, creative generation, performance analysis, and campaign optimization, defining what good looks like and driving the iterations to get there.
  • Design and evolve the operating model that enables Growth Operators, AI agents, and automated workflows to work together effectively.
  • Determine where human judgment creates the greatest value, where AI can operate autonomously, and how work should flow between the two.
  • Own the performance and effectiveness of AI-enabled growth systems, establishing monitoring frameworks, feedback loops, and continuous improvements that drive better business outcomes.
  • Drive rigorous experimentation across channels, creative, offers, and funnel experiences.
  • Partner with our BI and data teams to improve visibility into performance and attribution.

Requirements

  • Proven growth leadership.

  • A track record of scaling.
  • Strong understanding of member acquisition, retention, customer lifetime value, and the economics of a subscription business.
  • You turn messy data into clear decisions and actions - you know which numbers matter and which are noise.
  • You can define and measure "good." You can establish how to evaluate the output of an AI-enabled system and monitor it continuously, so quality issues surface before they cost money - not after.
  • Proven ability to identify opportunities, prioritize effectively, and make sound decisions in fast-paced environments.

Nice to have

  • Experience in financial services, fintech, investing, or a similarly data-driven subscription business is strongly preferred.
