What are the responsibilities and job description for the Growth Manager position at Tuft & Paw?
Tuft & Paw is a fast-growing CPG pet brand built for people who care deeply about their cats and their homes. We design thoughtful, high-quality products that look as good as they function.
We sell primarily through our own DTC channel, alongside marketplaces, and a growing retail footprint. The business is scaling quickly, and we’re focused on building something that lasts.
We're looking for a high-performance Growth Manager to own and scale our paid acquisition and affiliate strategy across all channels. This is a hands-on role; you’ll be in the weeds creating and building campaigns, running reports and doing the research.
You'll be responsible for profitably growing revenue through paid media, affiliate marketing and other emerging channels. You'll work closely with creative and brand teams to build the programs that fuel Tuft & Paw's next phase of growth.

- Strong analytical skills — comfortable in spreadsheets and dashboards
- Background in CPG brands, particularly in a high-frequency consumables category (e.g. litter, food, supplements)
- Direct experience in the pet industry — you understand the category, the consumer, and what drives purchase decisions
- Experience with subscription or auto-replenish models and the metrics that govern them
- Hands-on experience with retail media platforms (Instacart Ads, Uber Eats Ads, or similar)
- Comfort working inside a data warehouse environment (e.g. BigQuery, Looker, or similar)
