OutScout is partnered with a Series B SaaS company that connects consumers with talented chefs in their community. They have raised over $100M from investors including Andreessen Horowitz, Y Combinator, Craft Ventures, and M13, as well as founders and executives from Instacart, TaskRabbit, StubHub, AngelList, Lyft, Airbnb, and Yelp.

They are hiring a Head of Marketing to own the strategy and execution across all marketing disciplines: customer acquisition (most importantly), lifecycle, positioning, and brand. You will refine branding, build scalable, multi-channel marketing funnels, develop a lifecycle strategy that drives subscription adoption and retention, and partner with product & ops teams to accelerate activation and retention. This is a player-coach role, ideal for a leader who thrives in both strategy and execution. They will report to the CEO, oversee 2 direct reports, and work cross-functionally. Most importantly, they are looking for someone who uses data to drive results.

Mission

The goal of this role is to 8x order volume and become the go-to mealtime platform for families by owning and executing an integrated marketing strategy that delivers profitable growth, deepens retention, and resonates emotionally with parents and households.

2. Build and manage a best-in-class marketing team

• Partner closely with the CEO, Product, and Operations to align roadmaps and customer journeys.

3. Deepen retention and LTV through lifecycle and brand marketing

• Oversee brand campaigns, community initiatives, and content strategies that increase awareness and emotional connection.
• Measure success via brand lift, NPS, and unaided awareness in core markets.

5. Create a high-leverage marketing analytics and experimentation engine

• Drive a culture of test-and-learn across paid, lifecycle, and brand programs.
• Build clean dashboards and reports to inform exec and board-level decision-making.
