Marketing / Growth Manager (CFD & Trading)

• Experience with educational funnels or trading academies

• Personal trading experience

• SEO-heavy or content-led acquisition background

• Experience managing contractors instead of internal teams
  

Our client is launching a new international multi-asset CFD brokerage focused on growth across Africa, MENA, and Asia.

The brokerage brand itself is at an early startup stage and is currently in its active launch phase. The project is backed by an established fintech group that provides capital, infrastructure, and operational expertise within regulated financial markets.

The company is now entering its public growth phase and is looking for the first in-house marketing owner to build the marketing function from zero and scale global acquisition.

This is a hands-on, from-scratch role.

You will be the first and only in-house marketing owner at the start.
There is no existing marketing team, no ready-made funnels, and no established acquisition system.

This role is designed for someone who is comfortable executing personally at the early stage, and building leadership over time.

This role combines strategy and execution.

You will own marketing end-to-end - from defining the strategy to launching acquisition channels, setting up analytics, managing contractors, and driving early results.

This is not a corporate Head of Marketing role with delegation from day one.
As the company grows, this role is expected to evolve into Head of Marketing / CMO, with the opportunity to build and lead a team.

You will work directly with the CCO, without long approval chains or micromanagement.
