Growth Lead - Performance Marketing

About Plasma Plasma is building the primary account for global money. Money used to belong to a country. Increasingly, it belongs to a person or business moving through many countries. People and businesses now earn, spend, save, hire and invest across borders. Traditional banks cannot serve this new world. Our first product, Plasma One, is a global money account: a place to receive, hold, send funds in seconds, earn yield and spend with a card in the local economy. Underneath is the Plasma network, built from first principles for stablecoin payments. Stablecoins make dollars faster, cheaper and more reliable to move. The opportunity is to become where all global money lands first: where income arrives, balances grow, payments move, businesses operate, and new financial products are built. The Team & Our Story We are a global team of founders, operators and engineers, obsessed with building the best products. We work at the cutting edge of financial innovation, using stablecoins to create tools for consumers and businesses. We operate with trust, clarity, and ambition: own your craft, move with urgency, contribute beyond your lane, back your teammates, debate rigorously, and keep raising the bar for what great means. The role • You inherit a live product with real spend, and you own the paid engine that scales it across Plasma One and Plasma Business. Channels, budget, creative and measurement all sit with you. • Own the cost of acquisition of valuable users and managing our paid advertising motion end to end. • Deploy many variations of ads, platforms and angles to test high performing creative and formats driving users into both custom funnels and direct to app while measuring downstream events. • Take us beyond our crypto-native audience. Find the audiences, messages and formats on Meta, Google, TikTok and YouTube that bring in people who fund and keep spending, then scale the ones that work. • Run the campaigns yourself. You build them, launch them, read the results and decide where tomorrow's budget goes. New creative, new audiences and new angles every week, with a clear read on what worked and why. • Look past the click. Work with product and design on landing pages, onboarding, lifecycle and referrals so a new sign-up becomes a funded account and a regular user. • Build the paid function. The tracking, reporting and playbooks you set up become what the team runs on, and as channels prove out you help hire the specialists who scale them. The Bar • Regional market expertise. You know how to work on an acquisition strategy that differs between countries and markets • Deep, hands-on experience running paid acquisition at a consumer app or fintech, especially paid social and search, with real budgets and real accountability for the outcome. • Understand how to navigate Meta AEM, Google optimization, Apple search ads, Snapchat and other platforms, configure Appsflyer, our data warehouse and creative to achieve exceptional results. • A track record of structured creative testing and confident budget allocation across channels. • Strong measurement skills. You know attribution, incrementality and cohort analysis, and where each one can mislead you. • Range across the funnel. You have improved landing pages, onboarding, lifecycle or referrals, working closely with product and design. • Proof, not claims. Show us what you personally tested, what improved, and what it did to acquisition cost, activation and retention. Vague answers will not get through. • Resourceful. You find a way to get the answer or the result, with or without a big team behind you. Based in London or ready to relocate. Nice to have • You were an early growth hire at a global consumer fintech • You know your way around mobile measurement part
