About Grand

Grand is the first purpose-built fintech for the B2B economy.

We’ve raised over $5m to build the most intelligent fintech platform for businesses that operate in the built world.

Our first product, Grand Profile, helps businesses understand whom they extend credit to, payment terms, unsecured loans, etc. – surfacing early signals of risk and growth so they can act sooner.

Over time, this trust network becomes the foundation for an intelligent payment network where businesses can extend credit, move money, and transact with confidence.

Grand is founded and funded by a group of entrepreneurs, investors and researchers who’ve built, sold, worked in, and invested in global fintech, commerce, and AI companies, including Mastercard Labs, Stripe, Shopify, Airwallex, American Express, WhenThen, Loveable, and others.

The Role

We’re hiring a Founding Full-stack Growth Marketer to help define and build the growth engine at the core of Grand.

This is a high-impact individual contributor role with real ownership. You’ll work AI-first by default, using modern AI tooling to accelerate research, creative, and outbound execution without sacrificing judgment.

The goal is to turn complex, built-world demand signals into a pipeline that actually closes — selling to credit controllers, CFOs, and finance teams across SMB, mid-market, and enterprise businesses.

This is not a brand-only role and not a vanity-metrics role. You’ll be running paid, outbound, and creative campaigns in production, influencing real revenue, and iterating continuously.

Judgment matters as much as execution. Knowing where to spend and where to stop is part of the job.

You’ll sit close to the founders, product, and creative teams, shaping how growth is designed, evaluated, and shipped. This is a seat at the founders’ table, helping to define how Grand grows responsibly in a regulated, built-world market.

Your mission will be to build a repeatable pipeline engine across outbound and paid acquisition.

That’s the wedge. Everything else — brand, lifecycle, community, content — comes after, and only when the engine underneath it works. We’d rather have one channel that compounds than five that look busy.

What You’ll Do

Own performance marketing end-to-end: strategy, budget, targeting, creative, measurement, iteration
Launch creative campaigns as a full-stack IC: concept, brief, production, distribution, read-out, next iteration
Run outbound at scale: cold email sequences, LinkedIn outbound, and the creative ops that fuel them
Build the paid acquisition engine, with meaningful spend behind the channels that earn it
Design account-based plays against named finance teams across SMB, mid-market, and enterprise, in partnership with sales
Brief and ship landing pages, ads, video, and outbound assets, and hold the bar on quality, clarity, and conversion
Build the reporting that actually matters: CAC, payback, channel-level efficiency, contribution to pipeline and revenue
Use modern AI tooling across the stack as leverage — for research, copy, creative, outbound personalisation, and agentic workflows where they earn their place
Partner closely with product and engineering so growth is embedded in workflows, not bolted on
Work with compliance and legal so that what we say is defensible, accurate, and on the right side of the rules
Move fast without being reckless, understanding the cost of growth that doesn’t hold up

What Success Looks Like in 12 Months

A repeatable outbound + paid acquisition engine running in production
CAC, payback, and channel-efficiency benchmarks are defined and trending in the right direction
Qualified pipeline generated across finance buyers in SMB, mid-market, and enterprise
Grand’s category positioning is sharpened and visible in-market
AI-assisted workflows embedded into how growth gets done, materially improving output and speed
Growth systems built to scale beyond a single operator

Must Have

Proven track record in performance marketing, hitting CAC and pipeline targets in high-ticket B2B environments
Experience launching creative marketing campaigns end-to-end as the IC, from blank page to live in market to read-out
Experience running outbound motions at scale: cold email sequencing, LinkedIn outbound, and the creative that goes with them
Strong hands-on experience with LinkedIn Ads in B2B environments
Comfort marketing to finance buyers (credit controllers, CFOs, financial controllers) across SMB, mid-market, and enterprise, and adjusting the motion to fit
Practical, daily use of LLMs and modern AI tooling in marketing work — as leverage, not novelty
Strong analytical instincts: comfortable in GA4, a BI tool (Looker, Mode, or similar), and a CRM (HubSpot or Salesforce)
Hands-on with modern outbound and enrichment tooling (Clay, Apollo, Instantly, Outreach, Sales Nav, or equivalents)
Clear writer who can brief copy, critique creative, and write good ad and outbound copy when needed
Bias toward building durable growth systems, not one-off campaigns
High intellectual honesty and strong commercial judgment

Nice to Have

Experience in marketing, credit, lending, underwriting, risk, payments or another regulated, high-stakes product
Experience marketing to finance buyers (credit controllers, CFOs, financial controllers)
Background in early-stage or zero-to-one products as one of the first marketing hires
Experience building agentic workflows or automations (n8n, Zapier, Make, LLMs, custom agents) to compound output
Exposure to ABM platforms and intent data
Familiarity with attribution, MMM, or incrementality testing
Comfort with SQL, or willingness to learn enough to self-serve data questions

What ‘Founding’ Means at Grand

Founding isn’t a title. It’s how you work.

Every decision you make contributes directly and visibly to the company's growth.
You can tell the difference between a reversible decision and an irreversible one, and you act accordingly.
You move with urgency, but never with panic. Pace and discipline are not in tension.
You operate with judgment. You don’t wait to be told, and you don’t hide behind permission.
Bias for action is the default. You don’t need the phrase on a poster.
You measure yourself by outcomes, not hours. The work is the point.
You own results, including the ones that don’t go your way. No excuses, no theatre.
You’re always thinking about the next build, the next test, the next improvement, even when you’re not at the desk.
You want what you build to matter at scale — to change how a real industry operates, not to live on a deck.
You hold a high opinion of your work and a higher one of your standards, and you’d rather let the output speak.

Why This Role / Benefits

One of the earliest non-founder operators, with direct influence over GTM direction
Meaningful equity ownership in a long-term company going after a large, underserved market
A real shot at shaping category creation, not iterating on someone else’s playbook
Excellent Salary: competitive and reflective of the responsibilities of a founding role
Hybrid Work: at least 3 days in our Dublin office
Extended Remote Work on Request: outcomes matter more than optics
Builders, Not Tourists: work with people who care deeply about getting things right

Who You Are

You’re a builder with a marketer’s discipline. You’re excited by messy reality, not pristine attribution dashboards. You’re sceptical of hype and careful about claims.

You think in systems, not channels in isolation. You understand that growth reflects product, positioning, and timing, not just spend. You design programmes that improve gradually and fail gracefully.

You’ve seen what breaks when campaigns leave the slide deck, and you design accordingly. You take responsibility for the impact of your work, including what doesn’t work.

You prioritise trust, credibility, and long-term impact over clever tricks. You value correctness, clarity, and humility over novelty.

You thrive in ambiguity, enjoy hard problems with no obvious solution, and take pride in building growth that earns its place.

You’re based in Dublin, Ireland or in close commuting distance (or ready to be), and ready to help build something genuinely new.

If this sounds like you, let’s talk.
