How to Apply for Senior Performance Marketing Manager
at Fuse Energy
🏢 About Fuse Energy
Fuse Energy is at the forefront of accelerating the global renewable energy transition, offering comprehensive solutions that combine technology and sustainability. Working here means joining a mission-driven team that’s scaling rapidly to combat climate change, with a culture that values innovation and data-driven decision-making.
About This Role
As Senior Performance Marketing Manager, you’ll own the entire paid acquisition strategy across channels like Paid Social, Paid Search, and Programmatic, directly impacting customer acquisition and revenue growth. This role is high-impact because you’ll also build LLM automation workflows and own tracking infrastructure, blending cutting-edge AI with marketing ops to drive efficiency at scale.
💡 A Day in the Life
A typical day might start by reviewing campaign performance dashboards and optimizing bids or creatives based on real-time data. You’d then collaborate with the data team to refine tracking tags or test a new LLM workflow for automated audience segmentation. Afternoon could involve strategy meetings to plan next quarter’s budget allocation across channels, followed by hands-on work in Google Ads or Meta Ads Manager to launch new experiments.
