Head of Growth

Frontera exists to close the care gap: every child, no matter where they live, should be able to access effective behavioral healthcare.

Frontera is hiring a Head of Growth (Marketing) to build and scale our growth and marketing function at a pivotal stage of company expansion.

This is not a narrow performance role. It is a senior leadership role responsible for the full marketing surface area. This means growth, demand generation, lifecycle, positioning, and trust-building, with accountability for measurable outcomes.

Reporting to the Chief Commercial Officer, you will own how Frontera goes to market across providers, enterprise partners, and an emerging direct-to-parent motion. You will be responsible for building the systems, team foundation, and growth architecture that compounds over time.

Success in this role means combining analytical rigor and experimentation with strong marketing instincts: building trust in a regulated category while driving adoption, pipeline, and long-term brand pull.

• Own Frontera’s end-to-end growth strategy across B2B, B2B2C, and consumer entry points
• Build and scale performance marketing and lifecycle systems across acquisition, retention, and reactivation
• Design experimentation frameworks that increase learning velocity and improve CAC/ROI over time
• Develop funnel forecasting and growth models to guide prioritization, resourcing, and GTM decisions
• Align Product, Sales, Clinical, and Ops around activation, adoption, and conversion through clear growth metrics
• Build repeatable demand generation systems across inbound, outbound support, lifecycle, and community-driven channels
  
  

• Own Frontera’s positioning and messaging across both enterprise and parent audiences
• Establish Frontera as the trusted platform for families and clinicians 
• Build content and narrative systems that drive adoption, credibility, and long-term pull
  Develop partner and ecosystem strategies that expand reach and reinforce trust
• Ensure brand, product storytelling, and growth execution stay tightly integrated as we scale
  
  

• Build the growth and marketing function from the ground up: operating cadence, tooling, early hires, and execution systems
• Lead early GTM tests directly where needed, then scale through process and team
• Implement modern marketing and analytics infrastructure with a bias toward speed, automation, and clarity
• Leverage AI-enabled workflows to increase execution leverage and insight generation
• Communicate growth performance, learnings, and priorities to executive leadership and the board
• Lay the foundation for durable marketing systems that support long-term scale
  
  

• 10+ years of experience across growth marketing, demand generation, and broader marketing leadership in high-growth environments
• Track record of building marketing and growth systems at early-stage companies (zero-to-one or one-to-scale)
• Deep fluency in experimentation, funnel analytics, lifecycle marketing, and ROI-driven execution
• Strong marketing instincts around positioning, messaging, and trust-building in sensitive categories
• Experience partnering closely with Product and Sales to define and scale GTM motions
• Systems mindset: able to reduce chaos, increase clarity, and scale what works
  
  

• Experience in healthcare, behavioral health, or other trust-driven regulated markets
• Exposure to B2B2C models (consumer wedge + enterprise or payer expansion)
• Hands-on experience using AI and automation to increase marketing velocity
  
  

• Builder mentality with a strong bias toward action, learning, and iteration
• Analytical rigor and discipline around measurement, forecasting, and ROI
• Deep customer empathy paired with sharp execution
• Comfortable operating without a predefined playbook
• High ownership and comfort being accountable in ambiguous environments
