Necessary Qualifications

• 3+ years in marketing analytics, growth or performance marketing, covering paid, organic or lifecycle channels for B2B or B2C businesses

Additional Information

• Start Date : Immediate
• Duration: Approximately 4–6 weeks

• Write the brief yourself. Input workbooks must also be human-built. Use real data that has been sanitised, or public data with the source named. No AI usage allowed.
• We run your task against current frontier AI models. If the models get it wrong, you then write a detailed yes-or-no rubric, and a reviewer signs off on the task with you.
