Us
State is a busy start-up preparing for the launch of our opinion network. We’ve got the kind of set-up that doesn’t happen that often in London: a Silicon Valley enterprise in the heart of Notting Hill. Our founder is Alex Asseily, who also founded Jawbone. Our advisers include Sir Tim Berners-Lee.
The team hail from Stanford, Cambridge and the like, and boast start-up experience from places like Skype, Microsoft, Yahoo and lastminute.com. Together, we’re building a large-scale, mass-market consumer service for both web and mobile. And we’re looking for talented, challenge-driven individuals to join us.
You
You will own the investigation and optimisation of users discovering, joining and using our service. This means three things: figuring out what is going on using all the analytics tools at your disposal, next deciding how to act using a breadth of experience across product marketing disciplines and then finding out if you were right as quickly as possible. It is a role for a growth hacker, a marketeer, a data-driven decision maker, an analyst, a creative and enthusiastic individual.
We’re looking for someone who can show us evidence of having run successful growth campaigns from other consumer internet sites and mobile apps, ideally in the social area.
