Job Details

The origins of modern performance marketing can be traced back to the 15th century when new printing technologies allowed merchants to advertise their goods and services via posters and pamphlets. Though the world of marketing has changed immeasurably since then the core tenant is the same–get the right message in front of the right people. We’re looking for the right person to join our Performance Marketing team and do exactly that.

Mercury is revolutionizing banking* for the modern age, building the finance stack that empowers startups and companies of all sizes to thrive. We have significant momentum, and are investing behind that to reach new audiences, test new channels, and acquire new customers. These ambitions are exactly why we are looking to strengthen our team by adding a Performance Marketing Manager.

This role will support the team by launching, optimizing, and reporting on the digital marketing campaigns that help Mercury achieve our aggressive growth goals. Our ideal candidate is thoughtful, strategic, detailed-oriented, and excited to drive interesting work in support of a growing marketing organization. You should be comfortable managing execution at the tactical level and ready to ask bold questions and embrace ambiguity as we build our program. It helps to be a little bit weird (did you read the first paragraph of this job description?).

  • Understand, review, QA, launch, and monitor digital marketing campaigns, including:  strategy, bids, creatives, landing pages, audiences, targeting, etc.
  • Own a piece of our Performance Marketing portfolio from end-to-end
  • Surface new opportunities for testing and collaborate within the team to plan, execute, and monitor tests for continuous optimization
  • Partner with creative team to plan testing and source required assets

 

You should have:

  • 3–5 years of experience in performance marketing, with a preference for B2B focus.
  • Hands-on experience managing at least one paid channel, such as Google Ads, Meta Ads, LinkedIn, YouTube, Direct Mail, or Podcasts. 
  • Proven success planning, launching, optimizing, and reporting on marketing campaigns.
  • Experience managing agency relationships or working directly with ad platform representatives.
  • A strong analytical mindset—you’re comfortable reading dashboards, spotting trends, and manipulating data (e.g., using pivot tables or filters in Google Sheets).
  • A track record of running tests or exploratory campaigns to test creative, audiences, or channels.
  • The ability to manage multiple deadlines, prioritize effectively, and drive execution independently.
  • Experience collaborating cross-functionally with teams like creative, data, finance, and compliance.

 

Preferred Qualifications: 

    • Experience with Direct Mail, Podcasts, Reddit, Newsletters, or working in highly regulated industries like finance or insurance.
    • Experience with more than one paid channel is a plus 

 

The total rewards package at Mercury includes base salary, equity (stock options), and benefits.

Our salary and equity ranges are highly competitive within the SaaS and fintech industry and are updated regularly using the most reliable compensation survey data for our industry.
