The Role
We're looking for a Performance Marketing Specialist to own and drive user acquisition across our key Anglophone African corridors — primarily Nigeria, with reach into Kenya and Ghana. You'll sit within our core Growth function, reporting to the Senior Performance Marketing Manager, and work cross-functionally to push paid channel performance forward.
This is a hands-on role for someone who moves fast, thinks in data, and knows how to turn creative into growth. You won't be waiting to be told what to do — you'll be the one telling us what needs doing next.

- Support broader global acquisition across Google App Campaigns (UAC/GAC), Apple Search Ads (ASA), DSPs, and emerging channels where needed
- Collaborate closely with Product, Data, Brand, CRM, and Creative teams to drive growth aligned with key business objectives
Creative Strategy and Content Development
- Own the creative roadmap for your campaigns, maintaining a continuous pipeline of fresh, high-performing assets
- Partner with in-house creative teams, regional growth members, and external creators to deliver content that is locally relevant and culturally resonant
- Develop creative briefs for static, video, and UGC content informed by performance data and audience insights
- Repurpose existing creator and influencer content into performance-driven assets
- Translate performance insights into actionable creative recommendations and iterate rapidly
Performance Measurement and Analytics
- Monitor acquisition performance across paid channels and optimise toward CAC and other key efficiency targets
- Leverage MMPs (e.g., AppsFlyer, Adjust, Branch) and attribution frameworks to evaluate performance and inform budget allocation
- Provide clear performance reporting and communicate actionable insights to stakeholders
- Support broader funnel optimisation across activation and retention
- Work closely with product and data teams to understand user behaviour and improve campaign effectiveness
Experimentation and Growth Initiatives
- Build and execute structured testing plans across audiences, bidding strategies, creatives, landing experiences, and acquisition channels
- Identify and validate new growth opportunities through rigorous experimentation
- Stay ahead of industry trends, platform updates, privacy changes, and emerging growth tactics
