E-Commerce Growth Strategist

Prominence — Profit-first Performance Marketing

Our Mission

To become the leading voice and go-to operating system for the e-commerce landscape in Europe.

The Role

We’re hiring a Senior E-commerce Growth Strategist to lead growth for our clients and become a pillar inside one of our Pods.

At Prominence, a Growth Strategist is not a “media buyer with opinions.” You are the owner of growth.

You translate business goals into forecasts, forecasts into strategy, and strategy into daily execution—across paid media, creative, and e-commerce strategy.

You think like a CFO, plan like a CMO, and execute like a performance operator.

You will:

• Own the growth strategy for multiple e-commerce brands
• Build cohort-based forecasts and contribution-margin models
• Translate financial reality into media and creative strategy
• Lead your Pod: performance marketers, creatives, and PM
• Be the strategic brain clients trust when things get hard

When you’re on an account, people know: “This account is in good hands.”

What Makes This Role Different

We don’t optimize for ROAS. We optimize for contribution margin.

You’ll work with:

• Real, direct business metrics, not ad-platform or GA4 vanity metrics
• Cohort forecasting, not gut feeling
• aMER, nCAC, POAS, CM$, not just CPA or ROAS
• Creative strategy as a growth lever, not decoration
• Systems, playbooks, and standards, not chaos

You’ll help build the agency while running client growth.

What We Look For

Working at Prominence is not for everyone. It is for you if you crave responsibility, mastery, and impact.

We hire for three non-negotiables:

OWNERSHIP MENTALITY

• Treat the business as your own: You operate with the mindset of a founder, not a vendor.
• Reject excuses: You never blame the algorithm or say, "I'm waiting on feedback."
• Own the outcome: You are responsible for the result, not just the task. If a campaign fails, you diagnose it, own it, and fix it.
• Be proactive: You identify and solve problems before they become emergencies, without needing micromanagement.

You embody the phrase: "Every Day In Every Play, Count on Me."

KAIZEN (Continuous Improvement)

• 1% Better Daily: You are obsessed with marginal gains and refuse to accept "good enough."
• Be an Autodidact: You learn by doing, testing, and iterating, you don't wait to be taught.
• Data over Routine: You don't just rinse and repeat; you constantly analyze data to find new efficiencies.
• Crave Feedback: You actively seek feedback, even when it hurts, because you know it is the only path to greatness.

UNREASONABLE HOSPITALITY

• Deliver an Experience: You believe how the client feels is just as important as the ROAS you generate.
• Anticipate Needs: You solve problems before the client even realizes they exist.
• Clarity in Chaos: When things get messy, you are the calm, clear voice that guides the client.
• Go the Extra Mile: You go to "unreasonable" lengths to ensure every client feels heard, understood, and safe.

You don’t want an easy job. You want to make an impact on your clients.

What You’ll Do

• Translate revenue goals into spend, MER, and margin targets
