Performance Marketing Specialist

CareGuide was founded with one thing in mind: to ensure that anyone in search of care can find it. We help people take care of the things that are closest to their hearts: their homes, their pets, their parents, and their kids.

We have 40 full time team members who share this commitment - we are parents, grandparents, pet lovers, daughters, and sons. And we have 7 million users who trust us to help find care, and we work hard to make it possible

We know you see 100s of job postings every week so thanks for making it this far. If you feel like you would be a great fit for a fast paced start-up, where you will be challenged and rewarded on a daily basis, please apply - we promise it’s worth it. We think big, work hard, and celebrate the successes and losses because both are equally important.
