[Hiring] Head of Growth @Rhythm Energy

Role Description

Rhythm is building the future of home electrification and energy independence. As consumers adopt increasingly sophisticated energy solutions, we have a significant opportunity to help them navigate complex choices while accelerating the transition to a more sustainable energy future.

We’re hiring a Head of Growth to build and scale the next phase of Rhythm’s growth engine. Reporting to the CMO, you’ll own customer acquisition and conversion across a diversified portfolio of online and offline channels, with accountability for customer growth, revenue, unit economics, and return on marketing investment.

You’ll lead the strategy for where and how Rhythm invests to grow—determining which channels to scale, where to experiment, how to improve conversion, and how to allocate resources based on marginal returns and long-term customer value.

This is a true builder-and-operator role. You’ll partner closely with Brand & Creative, Marketing Analytics, Product, Engineering, Operations, and Organic Growth to identify our biggest opportunities and turn insights into measurable business outcomes.

We’re looking for someone who thinks in systems across media, creative, product, conversion, measurement, and customer economics—and who can combine strategic judgment with the willingness to get close to the work.

• Experience managing large-scale marketing investments, ideally eight-figure annual budgets.
• Deep expertise across digital and offline performance marketing, with demonstrated success making portfolio-level investment decisions and opening new acquisition channels.
• Strong working knowledge of conversion rate optimization (CRO), experimentation, digital customer journeys, and organic growth/SEO.
• Sophisticated understanding of growth economics and measurement, including CAC, LTV, payback, contribution economics, attribution, MMM, incrementality, forecasting, and media investment optimization.
• Demonstrated ability to leverage analytics, customer insights, AI, and automation to improve growth performance, experimentation velocity, decision quality, and operating efficiency.
• Strong executive communication and commercial judgment, with the ability to translate complex performance data into clear recommendations and investment decisions.
• Proven people leadership skills with experience building, developing, and inspiring high-performing teams.
• Strong cross-functional influence with experience partnering closely with Product, Engineering, Analytics/Data, Creative, Brand, and Operations.

Requirements

• Define and lead Rhythm’s acquisition and conversion strategy, identifying the highest-impact opportunities to accelerate sustainable growth across brands and lines of business.

• Set media mix and budget allocation across direct-response and upper-funnel investments, using marginal return, incrementality, and business economics to determine where to scale, test, reallocate, or pull back.
• Drive performance against customer growth, revenue, CAC, LTV, payback, contribution economics, and other key business targets.
• Continuously diversify Rhythm’s acquisition portfolio by identifying, sizing, testing, and scaling new channels, partnerships, audiences, and distribution opportunities.
• Build scalable testing programs across audiences, creative, messaging, offers, landing experiences, creators/influencers, and channels.

• Ensure SEO, AI-powered search/GEO, and organic growth are integrated into the broader Growth strategy and investment roadmap.
• Partner closely with Organic Growth leadership to connect organic opportunities with acquisition priorities, conversion strategy, content and landing-page needs, and broader customer and revenue outcomes.
• Define the KPIs and measurement requirements for Rhythm’s acquisition and conversion portfolio and establish the operating cadence used to review performance and make investment decisions.
