Growth Specialist

About the company

At a time when remote jobs were scarce and rarely open outside of the US, EU Remote Jobs was created, initially as a Facebook page, before launching a not-so-easy-on-the-eye website in 2019 🫣.
Thankfully, the site has had a fresher look since then and has grown organically to be the largest remote jobs boards dedicated to European time zones with 2.9 million job views every month, and growing rapidly. We've never invested in advertising and have grown organically to become a leader in the remote work space in Europe, and we’re looking for someone to help take us to the next level.

We believe remote work can better distribute employment opportunities to job seekers wherever they are based. We're now searching for a Growth Specialist to take the lead on implementing strategies to grow EU Remote Jobs in terms of revenue and community expansion to be the go-to place for all things remote jobs in Europe.
