Growth Marketing Specialist Credit Cards | AppCard
Reports to Jeremy Rabe, Chief Growth Officer | Individual contributor
About AppCard
AppCard helps independent grocers connect with shoppers through loyalty, personalized offers, and rewards. Our credit card program builds on those relationships, helping shoppers earn meaningful rewards at retailers they know and trust while helping local businesses grow.
About the role
We are looking for a resourceful marketer who enjoys getting campaigns live, testing what works, and turning results into better marketing. Your focus will be entirely on marketing execution for our credit card program: acquiring new cardholders and helping them activate, make their first purchase, and keep using their cards. This is a hands-on individual contributor role suited to someone with approximately 2-4 years of relevant marketing experience. You will work directly with the Chief Growth Officer to turn priorities into campaigns, manage the details, and follow through with merchants. We value evidence of strong execution, analytical curiosity, and rapid learning. Prior credit card or banking experience is not required.
What you will do
Help merchants launch and promote their cards
- Schedule and coordinate training for merchants going live, prepare marketing assets, and track launch tasks and deadlines.
- Create and adapt merchant marketing materials; follow up to ensure assets are deployed across websites, social media, mobile apps, and other shopper touchpoints.
- Coordinate signage production, proof artwork and specifications, and ensure materials are accurate and delivered on schedule.
- Share campaign results and practical recommendations with merchants, keeping them engaged in ongoing card marketing.
Build and run acquisition campaigns
- Set up launch email blasts and maintain a calendar of future campaigns for new and existing merchants, including audience selection, copy, creative, links, testing, and scheduling.
- Launch and test SMS, push notifications, paid search, and display advertising; research and pilot additional marketing channels.
- Implement referral campaigns and coordinate prescreen offer campaigns through email and direct mail with the appropriate internal teams and partners.
- Test messages, creative, offers, and calls to action to learn what drives completed applications and new cardholders.
Build cardholder engagement and improve conversion
- Implement lifecycle emails for onboarding, activation, first purchase, and ongoing usage; measure results and continually test and refine the campaigns.
- Roll out new-user education program, translating approved content into clear communications that help cardholders understand and use their benefits.
- Analyze the conversion funnel, identify where applicants drop off, and develop A/B tests with product and other teams to improve the application experience.
- Use Google Analytics, UTM tracking, and internal reporting to compare campaign and channel performance and recommend what to improve, expand, or stop.
- Manage campaign checklists and approvals, working with compliance and card program partners to use approved materials and complete required reviews before launch.
What you bring
- Approximately 2-4 years of experience executing digital, growth, lifecycle, performance, or consumer marketing. Strong candidates with less experience and clear evidence of results are encouraged to apply.
- Experience personally building and launching campaigns in at least one channel, such as email, paid media, SMS, or lifecycle marketing. You can explain your contribution, what you measured, and what you improved.
- Strong writing skills and an eye for clear, effective creative; comfort adapting templates and making straightforward assets in tools such as Canva or similar software.
- Comfort working with spreadsheets, campaign metrics, and web analytics. You can spot a performance issue, form a hypothesis, and propose a practical test.
- Excellent organization, attention to detail, and follow-through across multiple campaigns and merchant deadlines; confidence communicating with external partners.
- Initiative, openness to feedback, and the ability to learn unfamiliar tools and products quickly. A bachelor's degree in a relevant field or equivalent practical experience. Experience with Google Analytics, UTM tracking, email automation, or A/B testing is helpful. Backgrounds in ecommerce, retail, loyalty, agencies, startups, and other consumer businesses are welcome. You do not need experience in every channel listed above.
How success will be measured
Campaigns launch accurately and on time; merchants consistently deploy assets; and testing leads to measurable improvements in application completion, acquisition efficiency, activation, first purchase, and repeat card usage. Reporting clearly connects results to the next action.
What we offer
Direct access to the Chief Growth Officer, professional development, and the opportunity to build practical growth marketing skills in an expanding card program. Benefits include competitive salary and incentives, stock options, flexible working arrangements, health, dental and vision coverage, life insurance, a 401(k) plan, vacation and sick leave, paid holidays, FSA and HSA options, and commuter benefits.
Salary Range
70-90k annual salary

Entry Level Growth Specialist Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get an entry level growth specialist job?
Entry level growth specialist roles reward candidates who can show hands-on impact, even from class projects, internships, or personal experiments. Employers at this level look for familiarity with A/B testing, basic analytics tools, and channel fundamentals like email or paid acquisition. A concise portfolio demonstrating a campaign you ran or a metric you moved gives you a real edge over candidates who only list coursework.
Which companies hire entry level growth specialists?
Companies hiring entry level growth specialists right now include TikTok, iHerb, and AppCard, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. At this level, hiring comes from a wide range of employers, including early-stage startups building their first growth function and mid-size technology and consumer brands adding junior talent to established growth teams.
Are there remote entry level growth specialist jobs?
Yes, though availability varies by employer and role type. About 17% of entry level growth specialist openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, making this one of the more flexible fields for new graduates who want to work outside a major tech hub. Many of the fully remote roles still expect candidates to be U.S.-based and available for regular video standups.
Are these new grad growth specialist jobs?
Yes, the listings on this page include new grad, recent graduate, and junior growth specialist roles. A posting is new-grad friendly when it welcomes zero to two years of experience, accepts internship or project work in place of full-time history, or explicitly invites candidates to submit a portfolio. If a posting does not require a minimum number of years, it is worth applying even if your background is mostly academic or self-taught.
Which industries hire the most entry level growth specialists?
Entry Level growth specialist roles concentrate in Technology & Software, Retail, and Biotechnology & Pharmaceuticals, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors drive hiring at the entry level because they rely heavily on data-informed acquisition and retention experiments, creating a steady need for junior candidates who can run tests, interpret results, and iterate quickly without extensive prior experience.
