Growth Marketing Lead
The primary responsibility of the Growth Marketing Lead— a newly created role due to growth — at Youfoodz is to drive new customer acquisition and ensure profitability. You will do this by ideating, sizing, prioritising, and executing a broad range of initiatives. These will be a mix of locally developed ideas and best practices shared by our global headquarters.
This role is an exciting opportunity for someone who is strategically and commercially minded, but also deeply performance-driven, data-obsessed, and thrives in fast-paced growth loops. You’ll collaborate with cross-functional teams — including Marketing, Product, Finance, and Creative — and champion initiatives that grow our customer base and reduce acquisition cost, all while aligning with our brand strategy.
You will report to the Director of Growth & Product Strategy for Youfoodz in Australia.

- Use tools like Google Analytics, Looker, and internal dashboards to analyse trends, surface opportunities, and inform campaign optimisations.
- Drive the annual and quarterly marketing budgeting process, setting ambitious but realistic spend, conversion, and ROI targets in close collaboration with Finance and channel owners.

- Incorporate creatives and messaging aligned with quarterly brand themes into always-on channel activity, ensuring consistent brand presence and commercial relevance.
- Meet regularly with cross-functional stakeholders to align on upcoming initiatives and ensure performance-first campaigns are designed to deliver commercial impact.
- Facilitate go/no-go decisions on campaign or initiative rollouts by calculating incremental commercial impact using A/B tests, historical data, and modeled projections.
- Maintain clear and up-to-date documentation on key initiatives, workflows, and campaign learnings to enable knowledge sharing across the business.
- Champion the growth agenda within Youfoodz by aligning teams around a common set of acquisition goals and KPIs.
- 6+ years of experience in growth marketing, performance marketing, management consulting, or corporate strategy, ideally in a DTC or eCommerce environment.

- Quick to learn new platforms, tools, and internal systems.
- Strong alignment with the HelloFresh Group values and have an empathetic approach in how you solve problems and collaborate with others.
