Your mission will be to lead our Ecosystem team. You will build new growth engines for HoneyBook that leverage our ecosystem - Our community and potential partners.  You’ll collaborate with cross functional partners and influencers to build new product experiences, drawing on data, insights, and best-in-class product sense.

• Be strategic. Work with leadership to define our growth priorities. Create a comprehensive plan with goals that align to the company’s mission. You’ll be tackling the discovery of new channels and opportunities to acquire and activate more creative small businesses. Make informed decisions through data and sound analytics. 

• Be product minded. Customer empathy is paramount. Focus on how customers use our workflow/business management products through user data and optimize our platform to make it work the way our customers work.

• Be a growth hacker. Identify and optimize new growth engines. Deeply understand early customers’ needs to create an amazing early activation experience. The goal will be to build a strong funnel end to end.

• Be a strong operator. Flawlessly execute on the details of your strategies to ensure product launches, feature updates, and other initiatives are delivered on time, on budget, with exceptional craftsmanship.

• Be a connector. You will live at the intersection of marketing and product development, and focus on customer acquisition through activation.
