About the Founder Institute:
TheFounder Institute (FI) is a global network of startup incubators, accelerators, and investors on a mission to activate and empower communities of entrepreneurs worldwide.
Since 2009, we’ve helped launch over 8,000 companies in 200+ cities globally, which have raised nearly $2BN in funding. We are based in Silicon Valley and have remote team members across the United States, Europe, India, and Brazil. Our success has been documented in the New York Times, BusinessWeek, Forbes, TechCrunch, and more.
About the Role:
We are seeking a Growth Marketing Manager with a passion for startups and entrepreneurship to join our team.
The Growth Marketing Manager will lead the strategy and execution of all FI public online events, and be tasked with significantly increasing event attendance across all events.
You will report directly to the Co-Founder & CEO of FI, have the opportunity to see entrepreneurship and venture capital from many angles, and work with a small and mission-driven team.
This role is 100% remote.
Our Culture:
At the Founder Institute, we work a lot like the early-stage startups we support. That means things move fast, and we thrive on creativity, ownership, and a “let’s figure it out” mindset. Here’s what we look for in our team:
• You’re naturally entrepreneurial, self-motivated, and enjoy tackling challenges head-on.
• You prefer autonomy over hand-holding and don’t need a lot of oversight to get things done.
• You love learning new things, and when you hit a roadblock, your first instinct is to dig in, research, and find a solution—Google is your best friend.
• You’re open to feedback (even when it’s tough), and always looking to grow and improve—both personally and as part of the team.
If that sounds exciting to you, we’d love to hear from you. If not, no hard feelings—this kind of environment isn’t for everyone.

• Working knowledge and familiarity with common online event and marketing tools (ex. Zoom, Airmeet, Squarespace, Slack, Google Suite, Asana, Moz, Notion, Jasper, Canva)

Preferred:
• Public Relations experience
• Basic HTML/ CSS/ design experience
• Experience using Powerpoint, Excel, Canva, Mailchimp, and various online CRM and marketing platforms
What We Offer:
• Great upward mobility into a larger, conversion-focused marketing role (all senior team members at FI have grown into their roles from inside the company)
