Director of Growth Marketing

Knit  | US

---

Who we’re looking for… 

The (Senior) Director of Growth Marketing will sit within the Marketing team and report directly to the Chief Operating Officer. This role will oversee 2–4 direct reports and play a key leadership role in driving Knit’s growth strategy. While we are open to remote candidates, we are prioritizing individuals who can work in a hybrid model with three days per week in our NYC headquarters. The position will require travel as needed for in-person customer meetings and industry conferences, and participation in Knit’s US All Team in-person company events twice per year.

A little about us… 

Knit is the AI-native consumer research platform helping brands automate and accelerate primary research. With our Researcher-Driven AI, we’ve condensed the entire quant + qual research process from weeks into days (sometimes hours!) for 50+ enterprise brands — including Amazon, T-Mobile, Mars, NASCAR, and more. We’re on a mission to scale and democratize world-class research. From survey generation to stakeholder-ready reports, our platform is redefining how insights teams operate — and we need your help to push the limits of what’s possible.

Overview & Responsibilities 

The Director of Growth Marketing will play a critical role in scaling Knit’s go-to-market engine. This leader will own the strategy and execution required to consistently generate high-quality Sales Qualified Leads (SQLs), driving predictable pipeline growth through disciplined, data-driven growth programs.

You’ll lead Knit’s Growth Marketing function (including Marketing Operations and Content), owning inbound and outbound demand generation across paid, organic, content, events, and emerging AI-driven outbound initiatives. You’ll partner closely with Sales, Product Marketing, and RevOps to ensure growth efforts translate into qualified pipeline that converts and is acted on with rigor.

You’ll join a team that’s building something category-defining and help shape how some of the world’s most respected brands uncover and activate insights through AI-native research. This is a hands-on leadership role for a builder who thrives at the intersection of experimentation and execution—leveraging modern growth tooling (including AI and automation) and scaling what works as Knit grows.

Reporting to the Chief Operating Officer, you’ll work closely with senior leadership to align growth strategy with revenue goals, GTM priorities, and cross-functional execution.
