What are the responsibilities and job description for the Head of Local Growth position at Neighbor?
At Neighbor, we're building the largest hyperlocal storage and parking marketplace in the world. We've raised over $75 million from top-tier investors including Andreessen Horowitz and the CEOs of DoorDash, StockX, and Uber. Our marketplace operates in all 50 states, and we're just getting started.
About the Role
Neighbor is looking for a talented, ambitious, high-agency leader to run our Local Growth team, which helps commercial and residential property owners grow their earnings on our platform. Some examples of Local Growth initiatives include:
-
Google Maps: This is one of Neighbor's largest organic growth channels. Running it involves creating and managing thousands of Google Business Profiles for Neighbor property owners across the country.
-
Signage: This is a newer bet that involves installing Neighbor signs at properties across the U.S. and tracking the traffic they drive.
-
Supply Expansion: This involves working directly with property owners to invest in capital improvements that grow their Neighbor earnings (think modular storage units, sheds, gravel, fencing, etc.).
As Head of Local Growth, you'll manage a team to grow and optimize existing initiatives while also uncovering and scaling net new bets.
This is a high-ownership, high-stakes position at a company that's disrupting a $500B industry. If you have excellent analytical and operational abilities and want to lead one of the most important teams at Neighbor, this role could be for you
