Growth Marketing Manager

The Company:

ApprovalMax is a product-led B2B SaaS company in accounts-payable automation, integrating with Xero, QuickBooks, and NetSuite. Our users love the product, the challenge is making sure more of the right people discover it. This role exists to turn paid channels and digital spend into a predictable, scalable growth engine that delivers free trials, demos, and pipeline.

The Role:

We’re looking for a senior Growth Marketing Manager to own and drive performance across our paid and digital channels. This isn’t a traditional PPC role. We need a strategic operator who experiments boldly, improves systems, and delivers measurable growth. You’ll amplify and convert existing content, optimise acquisition campaigns, improve funnels, and leverage AI and automation to scale results. Acting as a thought partner to the Director of Digital and Demand Generation, you’ll combine hands-on execution with insight-driven strategy, testing new ideas, expanding channels, and maximising pipeline contribution. The ideal candidate is data-driven, commercially minded, and thrives on experimentation and continuous improvement

Collaborate across Marketing

• Request relevant content (webinars, videos, case studies, product launches) for testing and building demand through paidchannels.
