Other Platforms:
• Experience with at least 2–3 additional paid acquisition platforms such as LinkedIn, TikTok, Quora, Reddit, Snapchat or regional platforms.
• Ability to evaluate platforms based on audience fit, economics and measurable outcomes.

• Experience marketing online classes, courses, tutoring, children's education, workshops, events, subscriptions or free trials.
• Understanding of parent/student decision-making and education purchase journeys.
• Experience marketing directly to parents and/or students is highly valuable.
Funnel & Analytics:

• Identify where the funnel is losing money and recommend specific improvements.
• Connect campaign data with CRM and actual sales/enrollments.
• Experience with Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel/CAPI, CRM and marketing automation is preferred.
Creative & CRO:
• Identify winning creative angles and prepare clear briefs.
• Test hooks, offers, messaging and landing pages.
• Analyze creative fatigue and audience saturation.
• Run A/B tests and turn campaign data into new creative ideas.
AI & Automation:
• Use AI for ad copy, creative ideation, audience research, competitor research, campaign analysis and reporting.
• Use automation for lead handling, reporting, scoring and repetitive marketing operations.
• Demonstrate at least one real AI/automation workflow personally built or implemented.
Requirements

• 4–8+ years of performance/digital marketing experience.

• Demonstrate that you have operated campaigns rather than only reported on them.
Success in the Role:
• Consistent generation of qualified EdTech leads.
• Improving CPL without sacrificing lead quality.
• Improving lead-to-enrolment conversion.
• Scaling profitable campaigns.
• Reliable tracking and reporting.
• Continuous testing of audiences, creatives, offers and funnels.
• Taking ownership of problems and driving them through to resolution.
Benefits
