Talent Auction - Marketing Manager - Startup

JD: Marketing Manager (VC Funded Startup, Delhi, 0-4yrs)

Hygiene:

Firstly the hygiene. Read further only if you’re:

- a graduate

- looking for a full time role

- willing to relocate to Delhi

- for the job-title ‘Marketing manager’

- having a total prior work-ex. between 0 to 4 years or if you’re a fresher

- good with a cash component between 6 to 12 LPA, along with esop incentives

- for an early stage VC funded startup (having a team of 6 presently, and looking to expand rapidly)

- in the online recruitment space (looking to disrupt the likes of Naukri, with an innovative concept)

Short Story:

If you’re analytical, if solving challenging real world problems excites you; if the key focus at this stage of your career is learn, learn and learn; if you think you have what it takes to get the job done (having external and internal cross-functional team dependencies); then you’re the right person for the job.

- Your day-to-day work would revolve around running, managing and taking complete ownership of online marketing channels like Display, Social Media, Email, Video etc. Please note again that prior experience is a plus but not mandatory, attitude and willingness to learn are more important.

- Making sure you have a steep learning curve while having fun is our promise! See the ~1min explainer video to get a sense of what we do.
