About us

We are a hyper-growth Tech startup on a mission to revolutionise student rental. We were formed after our co-founders - Harry and Ben - experienced the pain-points of renting a house while at university, and knew that there had to be a better way.
We’re looking for a resourceful, data-obsessed Growth Marketing Manager to help scale Housr’s marketing engine across paid and owned channels as we enter an exciting new phase of growth. You’ll focus on driving user acquisition volume and improving the conversion rate of traffic to customers, working across the funnel and collaborating closely with other functions: marketing, sales, partnerships, operations and engineering.

We're now up and running in four UK cities (growing to 8 in Q3) and have launched in the US. In 2023 we were recognised by Tech Climbers as a rapidly scaling tech company, and we're currently fundraising to fuel our growth even further.

• Familiarity with SEO principles and organic content workflows
• Confidence using tools like GA4, Hubspot, Hotjar, Looker/Data Studio
• Strong analytical mindset — comfortable working with data to make decisions
• Customer-centric approach to decision making and ability to analyse the customer journey
• Willingness to learn and adapt in a fast paced environment
• Bonus: exposure to early-stage startups, marketplaces, or student-focused products

Success in six months is…

• Paid campaigns are running efficiently with improved CPL
• Landing pages and flows show measurable conversion improvement
• Key SEO opportunities identified and addressed (site health, on-page improvements)
• Demonstrate a clear experimentation roadmap
• Growth reporting is reliable and actionable

What we offer

• Salary - Genuinely Market Competitive!! (We’re happy to disclose our benchmarked bandings during the interview process)
• Holiday - 25 days off, plus bank holidays each year
• Free Gym Membership - Keep fit, with free use of our on-site gym
• Monthly Team Lunches - At the end of each month, we all grab lunch together as a team, and also have the afternoon off to focus on ourselves
• Company socials - A chance to let our hair down as a team. Past socials have ranged from paintball to ping pong tournaments - we’re quite competitive!
• Central Office Space - Located in the heart of Manchester, and complete with on-site barista
