WHAT’S THE JOB LIKE?
Day-to-day work & projects cooking
As Marketing Manager for Travel & Scaling, you focus on operational execution, driving marketing tactics that support growth across both real estate and travel portfolios. You acquire new users through multiple channels, from SEO and SEM to partnerships and social media. On a day-to-day, you optimize user acquisition campaigns, manage budgets, and ensure marketing spend drives maximum ROI. You work closely with various teams, such as product and insights, to innovate and adapt strategies that align with our business goals. This involves executing marketing plans, experimenting with new initiatives, and scaling successful campaigns. You also produce high-quality content tailored to the customer journey in both real estate and travel sectors, ensuring messaging is compelling and consistent across platforms.
Data is what drives your decisions. You analyze competitors’ strategies, dive into performance metrics, and continuously refine your approach through A/B testing and other methods. You track key OKRs and ensure marketing efforts align with broader business objectives.
But your chance to make an impact does not stop here! You coordinate with both local and Nordic stakeholders and teams to align on goals, learning from each other and gathering feedback which allows us to keep growing and evolving.
Not everything is cotton candy clouds, so here’s the main opportunity to leave your mark!
Managing marketing for both real estate and travel requires agility and adaptability. You face the challenge of navigating two diverse industries simultaneously, with shifting trends and competitive landscapes. Thus, a creative mind when faced with moving scenarios will help you greatly to stay on top of industry developments while ensuring that marketing efforts remain innovative, effective, and aligned with business objectives - and it amplifies your opportunity to make a real impact in the industries!
