What you'll do here

We are looking for an audience growth associate to grow and engage our audiences on- and off-platform. That means using email marketing, landing pages, ads, and social media to invite relevant people to sign up for Devex events and our newsletters, and to check out our latest content series.

For each initiative, you'll focus on:

• Identifying the right audiences to engage with
• Reaching them through email, ads, social media, and landing pages
• Developing and testing email campaigns and marketing flows

Your responsibilities will grow to include:

• Mastering the execution, measurement, and iteration of digital marketing campaigns
• Working with graphic designers to develop webpages and house ads
• Designing and implementing digital marketing multivariate experiments
• Developing marketing analytics to measure impact, inform decision making, and guide strategy

After your first year, you'll have a strong grasp of our audiences and the global development community. You'll have developed relevant contact lists and gained a deep understanding of what our audience is looking for. You'll have helped Devex secure audiences for multiple major conferences and events, content series, and newsletter launches.
