Product Marketing Manager

We are looking for a creative, data-driven product marketing superstar to join Labster and help scale the reach of our consumer mobile product (https://play.google.com/store/…) targeted to emerging markets. We have ambitious goals to grow the impact of this product from the early stage of hundreds of thousands of users, to a 100 million in as short a time as possible. This should be a scary-but-exciting goal for you. Naturally you’ll need to be someone who enjoys connecting with young people and students around the world. It’s our most mission-focussed product aimed at helping those who don’t have access to high quality education.

You’ll lead, design and execute strategies for user growth in our existing emerging markets, launch new markets, work with the mobile product team to identify new product opportunities, lead go-to-market activities, and provide feedback about our products to the team.

This has a B2C responsibility but will also work closely with our Product Marketing team for B2B products to ensure alignment on go-to-market efforts.
