Full job description

Who We Are:

At Rover, pets and their people are at the heart of everything we do. We connect pet parents with trusted pet care across the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Australia.

Headquartered in Seattle and Barcelona, we’re a values driven, fast-growing tech company focused on building safe and personalized experiences tailored to the needs of each unique pet. We’re investing in AI as a business accelerator and provide every team member access to AI tools in service of creating better experiences for our community.

We are proud to be recognized as a great place to work, having been named among the 100 Best Companies to Work For in Seattle Business Magazine and Washington’s Best Workplaces in the Puget Sound Business Journal. At Rover we’re committed to creating an accessible, inclusive, and welcoming community, which starts with our employees.

Want to make an impact? Join our pack and come work (and play!) with us.


Who We're Looking For:

As a Sr. Marketing Manager, you are the definitive architect of Rover’s consideration engine. While a separate Brand team defines our identity, you own the strategic deployment of that identity across upper-funnel channels (Linear TV, OTT/CTV, Audio, Podcast, OOH, Programmatic etc.) to drive measurable business impact and growth.

You are a "Master of the Craft" who can operate independently without the need for daily functional support. You will take the lead on two key initiatives: stewarding a massive media investment with surgical precision through advanced measurement (MMM/Geo-Uplift) and pioneering the future of our marketing operations.

To be eligible for this role you must be able to work remotely and reside only in the approved states of FL, GA, ID, NC, TX, WA & MI.
