  • If you thrive in a fast-paced environment, possess deep marketing analytics experience, and enjoy partnering with senior marketing leaders to deliver compelling solutions to complex problems, this could be the perfect match!
  • 8+ years of experience leading marketing analytics initiatives
  • Significant experience leading marketing attribution efforts, including data-driven attribution and media mix modeling (MMM), for both click- and impression-based channels

What the job involves

  • We are looking for a Director of Marketing Measurement to help lead our efforts to measure and optimize our paid marketing program
  • As the Director of Marketing Measurement, you will lead a set of teams focused on measuring and optimizing our paid marketing investments ($500M+ per year), including digital performance channels, mid-funnel video, linear TV, as well as other Above the Line tactics
  • This is a full-time position reporting to the Senior Director, Marketing Analytics & Strategic Finance
  • The Marketing Analytics team partners closely with leads across the Marketing org and Product & Engineering to identify and pursue growth opportunities, measure the impact of our efforts, and optimize our marketing investments
  • More broadly, the Analytics team at Etsy helps drive the success of our partners by providing meaningful insights, industry-leading measurement techniques, and access to the metrics, data, and tools needed for decision-making and optimization.

  • Raise the skill level of our Analytics function through the introduction of strong practices, processes, tools and close mentorship of both direct reports and broader team
  • Of course, this is just a sample of the kinds of work this role will require! You should assume that your role will encompass other tasks, too, and that your job duties and responsibilities may change from time to time at Etsy's discretion, or otherwise applicable with local law

Our take

Created as an alternative to more corporate eCommerce sites, Etsy is a peer-to-peer (P2P) website where users buy and sell handmade crafts, vintage items, art, and photography. The online marketplace works similarly to Amazon and eBay, only with an emphasis on unique items rather than mass-produced merchandise.

Since its IPO in 2015, it has managed to hold its own in an increasingly competitive eCommerce industry, including from Amazon's handmade section that launched in 2015. Further, by providing sellers with ownership over pricing and branding, the site is attractive for those wanting to set up a business on an established platform.

However, the seller-side of Etsy is not without problems. The recent hike in transaction fees and the introduction of mandatory marketing fees for artists with high turnovers has created significant discontent amongst sellers. Etsy must reconcile these issues to ensure artists continue to operate on the same scale within the platform. It plans to attract shoppers with its message of extraordinary, handmade and affordable products.
