Requirements

  • A degree in Marketing (nice, but not necessary)
  • A minimum of 5 years in a marketing role, preferably within small online businesses

This position is easily worth 100K + bonuses, HOWEVER because we're a bootstrapped start-up, the salary will start lower than the industry standard. We're offering $70,000 USD per year, and on a contractor basis to begin with.

BUT... this position does come with equity in the company in the form of phantom shares/profit shares that will convert over to stock options in the future. It'll be in writing and part of the employment contract.

The value of the equity will depend on your experience, but it is generous. You'll receive the profit share as a bonus at the end of each year.

It's our full intention to offer benefits once the company has moved out of the start-up phase and into the profit stage.

It is also our intention that once we hit the profit phase, we'll adjust your salaries back up to industry standards. We believe with a strong Head of Marketing, we'll hit the profit stage within the first year or less.
