<title>About the role</title>

<text>

Bolt Food Ads is scaling fast, with a cumulative revenue ambition of more than EUR 200M over the next three years, growing across Merchant Ads and Brand Ads in 16 markets. To reach that ambition, Merchant Ads needs to move from a sales-led motion into a marketing-driven growth engine, where merchants discover, adopt, and reinvest at scale.

As Growth Marketing Manager, you will own the demand-generation, lifecycle, and self-serve adoption funnel for Merchant Ads. Reporting to the Head of Ads & Monetisation, you will set the marketing automation strategy, design merchant incentives, and shape the portal and content that help merchants activate and grow their ad spend with Bolt.

This role sits at the intersection of commercial, product, and data. You will work closely with Account Management, Product, Engineering, and local market teams to turn merchant insight into campaigns, lifecycle triggers, and product improvements. It has a direct impact on Bolt's P&L, and offers a rare opportunity to build the growth marketing function for one of Europe's most ambitious monetisation businesses.
