User Acquisition Lead

User Acquisition Lead About the Role This is a unique chance to own the paid launch of a video-first Prop Tech app, joining as User Acquisition Lead ahead of its January 2027 consumer launch in London. The business is reinventing how people search for property. Renters and buyers scroll a personalised feed of video walkthroughs instead of static listings. It has £2m of seed funding from a multi-billionaire property magnate, with further investment from industry figures imminent, and dozens of agents are already signed.

As the first in-house paid media hire, you'll own how the app reaches and converts its first users. You'll work closely with the founders and a former worldwide media and marketing executive. Few marketers get to launch a consumer brand from scratch, and for the right person this is that opportunity. What You'll Be Doing Select and brief a small digital or media agency on audiences, CTA, brand values and the launch plan.

Build and pressure-test the January to March media plan, challenging flighting and channel mix from experience. Get a tight set of download-focused ads live for 1 January, cut by audience where needed. Run Meta, Tik Tok and Google hands-on every day, scaling what works and cutting what doesn't in days, not months. Own tagging, attribution and CAC, with one clear dashboard tracking views through to waitlist, pre-downloads and downloads.

Put paid behind organic content that is already performing, and own paid UGC and influencer activity. Sharpen landing page and waitlist messaging where it affects conversion. Act as the in-house paid media expert, working alongside a dedicated content creator and the founders. What We're Looking For Proven ownership of paid media for a consumer app, social network or social-first product, with CAC, ROAS or download results to show for it.

Experience working with a media agency while keeping firm control of the account. Hands-on Meta Ads Manager expertise. Tik Tok Ads and Google Ads highly desirable. Strong funnel and attribution knowledge (UTMs, with Apps Flyer or Adjust a plus). The ability to write a sharp brief and adapt a live campaign fortable in a hands-on, early-stage environment, four days a week in a London office.

Typically 4 to 7 years' experience, though less is fine if the results are yours. App launch, January burst or Prop Tech experience is highly desirable.
