About Launch


We’re an independently owned performance marketing agency and our purpose is to be ‘powered by happiness’. Based in the South West of the UK with offices in Bristol and Exeter we work with global clients with performance media spends of £1m+ from international airlines to British high street retail brands.


We’re proud to be B Corp certified, one of Campaign magazine’s “Top 100 Best Agencies to Work for in 2022 & 2023” and we’ve been awarded 15+ awards over the last 2 years including “European PPC Agency of the Year” two consecutive years in a row


Our mission is to be the happy performance marketing agency and we’re developing our services around our vision of ‘empowering happy companies to create happy customers’. We’re looking for a Chief Growth Officer (CGO) to help make this happen through driving both new business as well as same-store growth and overseeing the delivery of our marketing strategy.


Our strong culture means our team are proud of where they work as well as the award-winning work they deliver and this new position will ensure that we can continue to do ‘work worth doing’ for the right clients.


The Chief Growth Officer (CGO) role could be either a 5 day per week role or a 4 day per week role depending on experience and track record.


About the Chief Growth Officer role


We are seeking an experienced and strategic Chief Growth Officer (CGO) to join our leadership team to deliver on our 5 year vision of empowering happy companies to create happy customers taking us from £3m – £8m. This role is ideal for a commercial and results-oriented leader who is equally passionate about sales, marketing, customer happiness and driving revenue growth.

As CGO, you will be responsible for the overall growth strategy of the agency, ensuring that we meet our business objectives while maintaining our strong positioning in the market. You will work alongside a CXO, CPO and CEO, all with drive, passion and experience to bring this vision to fruition.


Key areas of focus for the Chief Growth Officer:


  • Strategic leadership
  • Sales and revenue growth
  • Marketing and brand positioning
  • Cross-functional collaboration
  • Data-driven decision making
  • Market Awareness
  • Team leadership, coaching and development
  • Client success


What experience you’ll need to apply


  • Marketing agency experience is essential
  • Previous experience in a leadership role, with a passion for both positive impact and growth and previous track record taking an agency from circa £3m to circa £10m (or a similar journey)
  • The ideal candidate will have worked for an agency rather than founding their own, and understands the nuances of managing existing teams through an ambitious stage of growth, working closely with a Founder or CEO.
  • You may have the Chief Growth Officer (CGO) job title currently, or might be called a Sales & Marketing Director, Commercial Director, General Manager, MD or be a heavily experienced Client Service Director
  • Whatever your job title, you’ll bring strong strategic thinking and problem-solving skills, with the ability to translate vision into actionable plans as well as exceptional leadership and team-building abilities, with a passion for nurturing talent and fostering a positive work environment.
  • You’ll inspire and influence at all levels, playing the role of an integrator to things done.
  • You’ll bring a data-driven mindset with experience in leveraging analytics to drive growth and improve performance as well as a deep understanding of the marketing landscape and emerging trends.


What you’ll get in return


  • A vibrant and supportive work environment where positivity and collaboration are at the heart of everything we do
  • Opportunities for professional growth and development within a forward-thinking, innovative agency
  • The chance to make a real impact on the direction and success of the business
  • Salary: £85k+ with bonus and benefits package on top
  • For the right candidate, a 4 day week could be considered

We have chosen to work with our friends at ADLIB who are managing the recruitment process for Launch. As a fellow B Corp, they are well versed in attracting the best candidates that have the right skills and experience, combined with the desire to work for a business driven by purpose and a want to make a positive impact on society and the planet.

Inclusion and equality


Here at Launch, equal opportunity runs through every aspect of the business. We are creating an environment where a diverse mix of talented people want to work, do their best and share in our journey for the long term. We’re building a team that represents a variety of perspectives and backgrounds, as we believe that the more inclusive we are, the better and more innovative our work will be.
