how growth capital is allocated and translated into predictable

how WHOOP invests our performance marketing budget, translating
company-level goals into executable GTM plans, and holding the

attribution noise Partner closely with Product leaders across
Acquisition, Monetization, and Retention to translate growth
strategies into clear priorities and roadmaps, ensuring alignment
between investment decisions and product execution Work in close
coordination with Lifecycle Marketing (LCM) to ensure owned
channels are leveraged effectively in service of booking
priorities, while maintaining clear separation between strategy and
execution Build executive-ready growth narratives and readouts,
clearly communicating performance, risks, tradeoffs, and
opportunities to executive/C-Suite leadership Act as the growth
arbiter, making hard calls between competing opportunities (e.g.,

best-in-class operating rhythms, planning processes, and decision
frameworks Champion a disciplined, experimentation-first growth

search, budget pacing, and incrementality measurement at meaningful
spend levels Strong commercial and financial acumen, with a track
record of owning forecasts, budgets, and growth targets in close
partnership with Finance Proven ability to allocate capital across
multiple growth levers and lifecycle stages, optimizing for
long-term value rather than isolated channel metrics Demonstrated

imperfect data, and complex tradeoffs Strong organizational and

environments Experience building and leading high-performing teams
