    Job Description

    About Wonderschool

    Wonderschool is a marketplace connecting families with high-quality early childhood education providers. We help educators launch and grow childcare programs, and we help parents find the right care for their kids. We are hiring a marketing leader to own growth on both sides of that marketplace.

    The Role

    You will own acquisition for both sides of our marketplace: parents and providers. On the parent side, that means performance marketing, conversion optimization, and AI-powered personalization. On the provider side, it means grassroots recruiting: weekend events, community outreach, and social campaigns that get educators excited to join. This is a hands-on role for someone who can run a Saturday morning event for moms and then go deep on funnel analytics Monday morning.

    What You'll Do

    Parent growth

    • Own the parent acquisition funnel: paid ads, landing pages, and on-platform conversion. You will be moving things around on the website constantly to improve conversion rates.
    • Use AI tools to personalize and scale the parent experience, from ad creative to lifecycle messaging.
    • Understand the demographics of the families we serve and tailor messaging by community, income level, and geography.

    Provider growth

    • Plan and run weekend events that reach moms, teachers, and aspiring childcare providers.
    • Recruit teachers and educators onto the platform through events, social ads, and community partnerships.
    • Build repeatable systems for provider recruiting and onboarding so it scales beyond one-off pushes.

    Systems and measurement

    • Build the systems, playbooks, and measurement infrastructure for growth, not just campaigns.
    • Own the numbers: CAC, conversion rates, payback, and unit economics across both sides of the marketplace.
    • Work closely with product and engineering on the website and funnel.

    Who You Are

    • Deeply analytical. You are comfortable with finance concepts and can model CAC, LTV, and payback without help.
    • Technically fluent. You understand enough computer science to work well with engineers and reason about how the platform drives conversion.
    • Genuinely good with people. You can run an event for moms on a Saturday and enjoy it.
    • Strong on social media, both paid and organic, with a track record of campaigns that drove real acquisition.
    • Demographically savvy: you know how to adapt messaging across very different communities.
    • A systems builder. You would rather build a machine than run the same play twice by hand.
    • Hands-on with AI tools and excited to apply them to marketing and the parent experience.

    Nice to Have

    • Experience at a two-sided marketplace.
    • Early childhood education, childcare, or edtech familiarity.
    • Experience recruiting educators or similar supply-side audiences.
