Growth Marketing Manager

Skape is building the Uber of landscaping - a platform that instantly connects homeowners with top-rated landscaping professionals. We're transforming a $130 billion industry that's still run on phone calls, cash payments, and word-of-mouth referrals.

Founded by a Navy veteran and Columbia CS grad, Skape is a venture-backed startup based in New York. We're live, growing fast, and backed by investors who believe the home services industry is ready for a technology-first approach.

Skape is at an inflection point. We've proven product-market fit in our launch markets, and now we need someone who can pour fuel on the fire. As our Growth Marketing Manager, you'll own the entire growth engine - from top-of-funnel awareness to activation, retention, and referral.

This is not a "run some Facebook ads" role. You'll be building growth systems from scratch, running rapid experiments, and working directly with the founder to define our go-to-market strategy as we expand into new markets across the Northeast and beyond.

You'll have real budget, real autonomy, and real impact. Every dollar you spend, every campaign you launch, every experiment you run will directly move the needle on a business that's transforming how 80 million American homeowners care for their properties.
