Social Growth Manager

Gizmo is an AI startup on a mission to make learning so easy that anyone can learn anything. We're building Duolingo for Anything - a platform that uses gamification and social mechanics to make learning fun. With over 1 million monthly active users and $4M in annual recurring revenue, we’re already one of the fastest-growing startups in the UK. Backed by leading investors, we recently raised $16M in Series A funding to accelerate our vision of helping 1 billion people learn.

Role Overview

In the past 12 months, we’ve grown 10X to 1 million learners a month and generated over 200 million organic views across TikTok and Instagram. Now we’re ready to scale that momentum even further.

You will work directly with the founders and wider marketing team to craft and execute our social content strategy, scale our ambassador programme and build a new wave of creators and influencers who represent Gizmo.
