The role requires equal fluency in the equestrian customer mindset, growth marketing, and building production AI tools.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead paid acquisition across Google, Meta, TikTok, Pinterest and manage influencer partnerships.
- Hands-on Shopify platform work: merchandising, UX improvements, CRO and A/B testing.
- Develop and execute SEO strategy focused on content-to-conversion and product page optimization.
- Own Amazon channel strategy and agency management to scale marketplace revenue.
- Build analytics and attribution frameworks (CAC, LTV, cohorts, multi-touch attribution) using GA4 and SQL.
- Design, build, and deploy AI systems and automations (agentic systems, Zapier/Make workflows, dashboards, custom tools) to eliminate manual work and scale operations.
- Set and own growth metrics and outcomes, launch new channels, and iterate on experiments.
Requirements
- Active or former rider / deep equestrian experience required.
- 5–7 years of DTC e-commerce / growth marketing experience.
- Demonstrable experience building AI-powered tools, automations, or apps (portfolio required).
- Hands-on Shopify experience (implementation, CRO, merchandising), not just strategy.
- Fluency with GA4 and SQL for analytics and attribution.
- Paid channel execution experience (Google and Meta minimum).
- Proven ownership mindset and ability to operate with autonomy.
Compensation & Benefits
- Total compensation: $132,000–$182,000 (includes $110,000–$140,000 base + 20–30% performance bonus).
- Six-figure+ ad budget with decision authority.
- Professional development, tool, and AI tool budgets.
- Clear career progression (Growth Manager → Senior → Director/VP).
- Remote/hybrid available; role based in Chagrin Falls, OH.
Location & Timeline
