About the Role

We are looking for a Growth Head to own end-to-end growth for a D2C brand that sells through its website, marketplace and its own retail stores. You will own revenue, customer acquisition and retention across online and offline channels, and build a growth engine that connects the two. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who is equally comfortable reading a CAC dashboard and walking a store floor.

Key Responsibilities

1. Growth Strategy and P&L:

- Own the annual growth plan, revenue targets, marketing budget and channel mix.

- Decide where the next rupee goes across paid, CRM, organic, influencer and store-led channels.

2. Performance Marketing and Acquisition:

- Lead paid acquisition across Meta, Google and emerging channels.

- Build and manage the agency ecosystem; hold partners accountable to efficiency and scale.

- Drive creative testing, funnel optimization and conversion improvements.

3. Omnichannel and Store Growth:

- Build the online-to-offline playbook: store locator, appointment booking, click-and-collect, local ads and hyperlocal campaigns.

- Support new store launches with catchment-led marketing and track walk-ins, conversion and store-level CAC.

- Work with Retail Ops to align offers, inventory visibility and customer experience across channels.

- Create a unified view of the customer across web, app, store and marketplaces.

4. CRM, Retention and Loyalty:

- Own lifecycle marketing across WhatsApp, email, SMS and app.

- Build loyalty, referral and repeat-purchase programmes.

- Improve repeat rate, LTV and cohort retention through segmentation and personalization.

5. Brand-Led and Organic Growth:

- Oversee influencer, content, SEO and community-led growth.

- Partner with the Brand team so performance and brand-building reinforce each other.

6. Analytics and Experimentation:

- Set up dashboards, attribution models and a weekly growth review rhythm.

- Run structured experiments across the funnel and scale what works.

- Work with Tech and Data on tracking, CDP and martech stack decisions.

7. Team Leadership:

- Hire, coach and develop a high-performing growth team.

- Set clear OKRs and build a culture of ownership, speed and data-driven decisions.

- Partner with Product, Tech, Retail, Merchandising, Finance and Brand leadership.

Must-Have Requirements

- 6 - 10 years of experience in growth, performance or digital marketing, with at least 3 - 4 years leading a team.

- Proven experience in a D2C brand with an omnichannel model (website plus owned retail stores).

- Has owned end-to-end growth (acquisition, conversion, retention and revenue), not just a single channel.

- Strong command of CAC, ROAS, LTV, cohort analysis and funnel metrics.

- Hands-on experience with Meta Ads, Google Ads, CRM tools and analytics platforms.
