Director of Growth Marketing full_time

Overview of the role:
Join us at PolicyMe! We’re modernizing insurance and we’d like your help. The Canadian insurance landscape has remained largely unchanged for decades and we are in the process of changing that. We’re a remote-first, Toronto-based startup with big ambitions.
We are looking for a data-driven, results-oriented Director of Growth Marketing to own our sizable annual marketing budget and ensure we scale efficiently. You’ll bring a “small budget mentality” to each dollar—maximizing ROI, upholding ROAS targets, and treating efficiency constraints as exciting challenges to solve. You’ll build and lead a team focused on performance, collaborate with product and customer insights, and experiment with new channels and tactics to accelerate growth. You’ll also advise our B2B2C partners on best-in-class growth strategies, sharing experimentation insights and partnering to drive brand success across multiple lines of business.
What you’ll be doing:
  • Maximize Budget and ROAS
  • Own a multi-million-dollar budget (CAD 8–10 million) across paid channels (Search, Display, Social, Affiliates, etc.)
  • Scale campaigns strategically while fiercely protecting ROI and hitting specific ROAS targets
  • Embrace budget constraints or shifting targets as an exciting challenge, not an excuse
  • Holistic Channel Integration
  • Develop strategies to align paid channels into one cohesive funnel, ensuring customers enjoy a seamless journey no matter where they encounter us
  • Monitor cross-channel user touchpoints and session data to refine targeting and messaging for higher conversion
  • B2B2C Advisory and Collaboration
  • Serve as a growth consultant to B2B2C partners, sharing best practices, experimentation insights, and data-driven recommendations
  • Help partners scale effectively, leveraging PolicyMe’s strategies to reach broader audiences
  • Customer-Centric Approach
  • Dig into product and customer data, listen to calls, and champion customer needs above any single channel or tactic
  • Tailor go-to-market strategies to different buyer personas, ensuring marketing decisions are driven by genuine customer insights
  • Strategic Experimentation
  • Design rapid experiments, analyze performance, and iterate to push boundaries on what’s possible
  • Keep a special focus on Search (SEM) while remaining open to emerging channels
  • Team Leadership & OKRs
  • Set clear team and individual OKRs, maintaining a consistent cadence of accountability and performance reviews
  • Be a true “player-coach,” guiding strategic decisions while diving into the details when necessary
  • Foster a “hands-on” culture of continuous improvement, ensuring everyone takes ownership
  • Brand & Performance Synergy
  • Approach every initiative as a reflection of PolicyMe’s brand—never sacrificing long-term trust for short-term wins
  • Balance immediate sales impact with brand awareness to build sustainable growth
  • Start-up Grit & Agility
  • Work efficiently in a fast-changing, often chaotic environment
  • Pivot quickly when conditions change, seizing opportunities and solving challenges without assigning blame
  • Stay motivated by the hustle, showing a willingness to grind and solve problems head-on
    • What we’re looking for:
  • 6-8+ years of growth/digital marketing experience with a strong focus on performance marketing and managing multi-million-dollar budgets (CAD 8–10 million+)
  • 3+ years of experience leading high-performing marketing teams, setting OKRs, and driving accountability
  • ROI- and ROAS-focused mindset, with a “small budget” mentality for every dollar
  • Expertise in Search Marketing (SEM) plus proficiency in other performance channels
  • Solid analytics skills: comfortable with GA4, GTM, Looker, and similar tools
  • Player-coach mentality: equally skilled at strategy and in-the-weeds execution
  • Customer-focused outlook: understanding the product, listening to customers, and adapting strategies accordingly
  • Lifelong learner who actively stays current with new marketing channels, analytics methods, and growth frameworks
  • Entrepreneurial spirit: thrives in a startup environment and is motivated by building something from the ground up
    • Reports to: VP of Growth
    Why join us:
  • Generous PTO – 20 vacation days
  • Access to stock options and a comprehensive benefits plan
  • A remote-first team with company paid, in-person socials and the option to work from our Toronto-based office
  • Resources to help your professional development, including an L&D budget, performance reviews twice a year and ongoing feedback to ensure you reach your highest potential
  • Work with an empathetic, high-performing team in a flexible, results-oriented environment
