The Role

BoldVoice is entering its next stage of hypergrowth, and we’re hiring a Growth Lead to own and scale our acquisition engine across paid, organic, and PLG. This is a high-impact, leadership-level role for someone who can think strategically, operate independently, and execute quickly. You’ll partner directly with the CEO and drive the growth roadmap end-to-end, from creative strategy to channel performance to experimentation across the funnel.

What You’ll Do

Own the Entire Growth Engine

• Lead strategy and execution across all major growth channels, with a focus on scaling performance efficiently.
• Architect and optimize acquisition funnels, testing roadmaps, and channel expansions.
• Stand up new paid and organic channels that can unlock step-change growth.
• Drive international growth with localized creative and channel strategies.

Run a High-Performance Creative Pipeline

• Build and lead the creative system that powers our acquisition engine.
• Source, evaluate, and manage creators, influencers, and UGC partners.
• Develop concepts, briefs, and testing frameworks; guide creators and editors toward consistently high-performing output.
• Maintain fast iteration cycles rooted in insights, data, and creative intuition.
• Establish patterns, playbooks, and repeatable formats that scale.

Drive Product-Led Growth Insights

• Partner with product to identify friction, optimize conversion, and create growth loops throughout the user journey.
• Use insights from acquisition and creative performance to inform product and lifecycle experiments.

Build and Scale the Growth Team

• Over time, hire and manage the team required to support a world-class growth function.

What You Bring

• 6–10+ years in growth, performance creative, or acquisition roles at high-growth consumer apps or startups.
• Demonstrated success managing 6 to 7-figure monthly budgets and efficiently scaling paid acquisition.
• Experience with building large-scale creative pipelines and managing creators.
• Deep creative instincts; strong ability to identify what will perform and why.
• Strong operational ability: you can run a tight ship with many parallel workstreams, owning high-level growth strategy while remaining very hands-on in execution.
• Analytical competence: able to interpret performance data and use it to inform decisions (without needing to be a quant specialist).
• Startup-native mindset: scrappy, fast, resourceful, and motivated.

Compensation & Perks

• Competitive salary commensurate with experience
• Meaningful equity: real ownership in a fast-growing, mission-driven company
• A+ Team: Join a small and mighty team (part of the tiny teams hall of fame) where your work has immediate impact
• Mission: Empower millions of immigrants and non-native speakers to speak English with confidence
