Acquisition Marketing Manager - Golf

*** Experience playing GOLF is required for this role ***

Our client is seeking a highly strategic and execution-oriented growth leader to own how a rapidly scaling consumer digital platform reaches and acquires new audiences.

This role sits at the intersection of growth marketing, distribution strategy, automation, and emerging AI-enabled workflows. The ideal candidate understands how to build scalable acquisition systems across paid, organic, and partnership-driven channels while continuously improving efficiency through experimentation, tooling, and process innovation.

This is not a conventional paid media position.

They are looking for someone who approaches audience growth as an operational and systems challenge — combining analytics, creative strategy, automation, AI tools, and channel expertise to create a repeatable and scalable acquisition engine.

The right person will be equally comfortable optimizing campaigns, designing workflows, leveraging AI tooling, and identifying new distribution opportunities that compound over time.

• Own acquisition strategy across major paid channels including social and mobile app ecosystems
• Manage budget allocation, performance optimization, and efficiency targets
• Develop structured testing frameworks for creative, messaging, and audience segmentation
• Drive ongoing experimentation to improve conversion and acquisition outcomes
• Partner with creative and product stakeholders to improve campaign effectiveness

• Build AI-assisted workflows for reporting, campaign analysis, creative iteration, and operational efficiency
• Develop lightweight internal processes, automations, or tooling that improve marketing scalability
• Create repeatable systems that transform insights into new campaigns and growth opportunities
• Identify opportunities to reduce manual work through AI-native or automated approaches
• Treat operational infrastructure as a long-term growth advantage

• Identify external channels, communities, creators, and partnerships that can expand top-of-funnel reach
• Develop co-marketing and audience development initiatives
• Evaluate emerging distribution opportunities and nontraditional acquisition channels
• Help establish scalable partnership frameworks that drive measurable user growth

• Own SEO and content growth initiatives across web and editorial surfaces
• Improve discoverability across both traditional search and emerging AI-driven discovery environments
• Build scalable content workflows that support audience engagement and acquisition
• Partner cross-functionally to align content strategy with broader growth objectives

They are looking for candidates who combine analytical rigor, creativity, technical curiosity, and a builder mindset.

Strong candidates may come from growth marketing, acquisition strategy, marketing operations, creator-led businesses, mobile consumer products, or AI-native environments.

• Deep curiosity around audience behavior, messaging, and growth mechanics
• Strong operator mentality with a focus on scalable systems rather than one-off execution
• Comfortable working across paid acquisition, SEO, partnerships, and content strategy
• Hands‑on experience incorporating AI tools into day‑to‑day workflows
• Ability to balance experimentation with structured analytical decision‑making
• Entrepreneurial mindset with a bias toward iteration and continuous improvement

This role will likely leverage a modern AI‑enabled growth stack, including:

• Generative AI platforms for research, ideation, and workflow acceleration
• AI‑assisted coding or automation tools for lightweight internal tooling
• Creative AI platforms for content and asset generation
• Analytics and experimentation platforms to support growth optimization
