Director of Growth

About the Opportunity
Our client is a fast-growing, Singapore-based performance marketing agency looking for a Growth Director to lead its next stage of growth.
Until now, the founder has personally led the agency's growth efforts. They're now looking for someone to take full ownership of the function, from driving new business and leading the team to building scalable growth strategies.
This isn't just about closing deals. It's about building the engine that drives growth.
You'll work directly with the CEO, lead a team of two Growth Specialists, and have the autonomy to shape the agency's commercial strategy.

Lead the full sales cycle: Manage discovery, proposals, pitching, negotiations, and closing with founders, CMOs, and senior marketing leaders.
Build a scalable growth engine: Develop and optimize acquisition strategies, outbound processes, partnerships, and growth experiments.
Lead and develop the team: Manage two Growth Specialists, providing direction, coaching, and performance targets.
Leverage AI and automation: Improve sales efficiency through CRM systems, AI-powered workflows, and automation tools.
Drive marketing and partnerships: Oversee the agency's positioning, LinkedIn presence, case studies, SEO/GEO, and referral initiatives.
Own commercial performance: Work with the delivery team to scope achievable client KPIs, identify account expansion opportunities, and maintain accurate revenue forecasts.
