[Hiring] Director of Growth @Vulcury Venture Studio and Advisors

Role Description

We're looking for a Director of Growth to own demand generation end-to-end — the counterpart, in growth, to what our Director of AI/ML Development is to engineering. You'll bring 5-10 years of hands-on experience, set the standard for quality and craft, and manage a cadre of junior marketers already in place, with full ownership of the function and no layer of leadership above you other than Vulcury's President.

This is a senior leadership role, not just an individual contributor position. You will both execute at a high level and manage junior team members executing under your direction, spanning the full demand generation funnel — marketing, sales oversight, and everything in between. You'll support growth needs across our core consultancy, our internal spinout ventures, and potentially client engagements as our services expand.

Qualifications

• 5-10 years of marketing and/or sales experience, with demonstrated ability to manage people and not just campaigns or accounts
• Experience owning both marketing execution and sales pipeline oversight — a true full-funnel operator
• Experience in B2B strongly preferred
• Background or genuine fluency in one or more of: supply chain/manufacturing, venture studios/consulting, or finance/hedge funds — through prior work, education, or adjacent experience
• Proven ability to build and run demand generation operations across multiple channels simultaneously (not a single-channel specialist)
• Comfortable working with data — segmentation, tracking, attribution, funnel conversion — not just creative execution
• Strong written communication; capable of producing and reviewing blog and content work directly
• Able to operate with autonomy in a lean, fast-moving, AI-augmented team structure with minimal traditional middle management

Requirements

• Experience marketing and selling for a holding company, venture studio, or multi-business-line organization (nice to have)
• Familiarity with CRM/marketing automation tooling and AI-assisted workflows (nice to have)
• Prior experience managing distributed or international teams (nice to have)

Benefits

• Manage and mentor a team of junior marketers — reviewing work, setting priorities, and building their skills toward independent execution
• Own the full funnel from awareness through pipeline to close, including:
  • Email marketing
  • Social media
  • PR
  • Website/web presence
  • Webinars
  • Blog writing and content strategy
  • Sales oversight — pipeline management, conversion, and close-rate accountability
• Own segmentation, tracking, and reporting infrastructure across all channels and the sales funnel to inform strategy and prove ROI
• Adapt growth strategy across different business contexts — from an early-stage venture studio/consultancy model to spinouts in supply chain/manufacturing and potentially high finance/hedge fund contexts
• Bring a growth orientation suited to early-stage and scaling businesses, not just steady-state brand marketing or account management
