The Adjacent Revenue Development (ARD) team validates and accelerates the growth strategies that turn SEEK's acquired and adjacent businesses into scalable, repeatable revenue, before handing off to SEEK core teams to continue to grow. The Senior Commercial Growth Manager – Adjacent Initiatives leads the commercial acceleration of Sidekicker, SEEK's flexible staffing marketplace, as it moves from Validation phase into Product Market Fit in FY27. You will own three interconnected growth plays: building a demand intelligence engine that surfaces Sidekicker at the moment of flex labour need; designing and scaling an outbound sales and marketing motion that improves CAC and ARPU against cold lead benchmarks; and scaling a SEEK Account Manager referral program that activates SEEK's deep hirer relationships as qualified pipeline. You will report to the Head of Growth – Adjacent Initiatives, lead a squad of Growth Operations, Analytics and Growth Executives, and work cross-functionally across SEEK's Product, Marketing and Sales teams and Sidekicker's existing Growth team. What You'll Be Accountable For Validating and executing the acceleration strategy - Identify key commercial uncertainties, design experiments to resolve them quickly, and translate results into scalable growth playbooks, accountable for FY27 OKRs Building the demand intelligence engine - Lead the discovery, design and implementation of a lead scoring model that turns data ‘signals’ into a qualified pipeline to execute against, and develop winning GTM playbooks to scale Designing and scaling the SEEK Account Manager referral program - Design, enable and scale a referral program that qualifies SEEK hirers against Sidekicker's ICP, building a commercial motion replicable across future adjacent initiatives. Leading your squad with commercial rigour - Direct Growth Operations, Analytics and Growth Executives to run disciplined experiments, with hypotheses, metrics and guardrails defined before you start and outcomes turned into repeatable plays. Cross-functional orchestration - You are the threading leader that keeps SEEK Commercial, Product, and Marketing as well as Sidekicker's own teams aligned on priorities and progress, navigating the tension between moving fast in validation and building something SEEK core teams can eventually scale. Qualifications Essential qualifications, skills and experience Significant experience personally owning revenue targets and delivering measurable commercial growth outcomes, you can point to specific results and explain exactly how you drove them Extensive hands-on experience building and executing go-to-market models for products moving from validation to scale in tech, SaaS, management consulting, or a startup or new venture environment Significant experience designing and implementing signals-based lead scoring or targeting models that turned data into a qualified, actionable pipeline Extensive experience leading disciplined commercial experiments, defining hypotheses, success metrics and guardrails upfront, and translating results into repeatable growth playbooks Demonstrated ability to build alignment and drive outcomes across complex, matrix or cross-functional environments where you held significant accountability without direct authority Extensive experience presenting growth strategies and commercial recommendations to senior leadership, and facilitating structured planning sessions across diverse, cross-functional teams Proven experience leading or managing a squad or team, directing analytical and operational resources to execute against commercial goals Active, applied use of AI tools to accelerate growth analysis, surface hypotheses or scale experimentation Do these behaviours/mindset expectations resonate with your skills & experience? Commercially driven – You connect strategy to revenue outcomes, own your numbers and can point to the specific growth results you personally delivered and exactly how you drove them Experiments-first thinker – You don't wait for perfect information, you identify the key uncertainty, design a fast experiment to resolve it and act decisively on what you learn Analytically sharp – Equally at home in a dataset and in a room with an executive, you turn complex analysis into crisp, compelling recommendations that earn a green light Low-ego collaborator – You build alignment through trust and sharp thinking in environments where almost everyone you need to move doesn't report to you Clear and precise communicator – You hold a room, write recommendations that earn decisions and turn ambiguous briefs into clear plans others can execute against Cross-functional orchestrator – You keep commercial, product and marketing teams aligned on priorities and progress, navigating the tension between moving fast and building something scalable AI-curious and applied – You actively explore AI tools as a multiplier for growth, insight and execution — not as a shortcut, but paired with strong commercial judgement Comfortable with ambiguity – You thrive where the playbook doesn't yet exist and are energised by the challenge of building it Accountability mindset – You're accountable for outcomes you don't directly control and comfortable with that responsibility Additional Information At SEEK we offer: Support of flexible working, including a mix of office and work from home days depending on your role.
