Description
About the Role The Channel Company is looking for a hands-on Senior Audience Growth Specialist to directly grow and activate our audiences across new and emerging media platforms — including YouTube, social channels, WhatsApp communities, newsletters, events, and owned platforms. This is a doer role, not a people management role. You will personally design, execute, test, optimise and scale audience acquisition activity end-to-end. We are not looking for someone who knows how it should be done and delegates — we need someone who gets stuck in and owns outcomes. You will be accountable for audience growth results across multiple channels, working closely with marketing, data, editorial, events and communities teams, but without managing a team. Think senior specialist, builder, operator.
