About Us 
Close is a bootstrapped, profitable, 100% remote, ~70 person team of thoughtful individuals who value autonomy and impact. We’re eager to make a product our customers fall in love with over and over again.

We ❤️ startups & SMBs. Since 2013, we’ve been building a CRM  that focuses on better communication, without the hassle of manual data entry or complex UI. Our goal: double the productivity of every sales rep.

About You
As our first-ever Head of Growth, you will be responsible for managing and scaling Close’s customer acquisition funnel. You will need to look at Close’s most successful customers and figure out how to acquire more of them. We expect you to test and iterate on generating leads and converting new customers from a wide variety of sources (organic, paid, outbound & inbound, partnership, affiliates, etc) and communicate those results to the leadership team.

Simply put: your job is to uncover, examine, and present all of the opportunities where Close can win new customers in a sustainable way. Think of yourself as Close’s own Ferdinand Magellan – tasked with voyaging out into uncharted territory in search of new opportunities that will accelerate our growth.

While you will receive support and resources, you should expect to do ~90% of this work as an individual contributor for the first 12 months. You will report to the Director of Sales & Marketing, Nick Persico, and we expect you to eventually build a Growth team as the company continues to grow.
