Senior Growth Marketing Manager

At Ellis Porter, our goal is to improve the immigration experience for employers and individuals so they can thrive in a smaller world. To do this, we've built a team of dedicated immigration professionals (we call ourselves Porters) who believe passionately in the economic and cultural benefits that immigration provides to America, and who excel at providing our clients with refreshingly clear guidance, uniquely creative strategies, and remarkably responsive service, all with genuine empathy and a personal touch.

Immigration law is very complex and full of constant challenges, but the Ellis Porter team loves what we do, and who we do it with, and we find great satisfaction in knowing that our work positively and intimately impacts our clients' lives and companies.

Our Culture:

We're also immensely proud of (and protective of) our culture at Ellis Porter. It's not what you would expect from a typical law firm, because we're not a typical law firm. We take our work seriously, but not ourselves. We don't tolerate drama, and jerks are not allowed. And we've built a wonderfully diverse team of Porters who reflect the diversity of the clients we serve.

As our team continues to grow, we've remained committed to cultivating an inspiring, authentic, comfortable, and flexible work environment where you are respected, encouraged to bring your whole self to work, and challenged to continue your professional growth in the legal immigration field.

As the Senior Growth Marketing Manager, you will serve as Ellis Porter's first dedicated in-house marketing leader and play a foundational role in shaping our growth marketing function.

• Own marketing automation and follow-up journeys, including email campaigns, retargeting, and other initiatives that guide prospective clients from initial inquiry through retention and conversion.
• Manage and build HubSpot marketing workflows, including campaigns, defined metrics reporting, attribution, and dashboard development.
• Identify, evaluate, engage, and manage external vendors when needed, while maintaining in-house ownership of strategy, performance, and outcomes.
• Monitor and report on key marketing performance indicators, and present results, opportunities, and areas for improvement to leadership.

What Skills and Experience You'll Bring:

• Bachelor's degree in Marketing, Business Administration, or related field.
• 5-8+ years of experience in growth marketing, performance marketing, demand generation, or a related field, with experience building marketing infrastructure from the ground up.

• Strong understanding of B2C marketing strategy and customer acquisition, with interest in or readiness to support future B2B marketing efforts as the firm expands.
• Experience working across multiple marketing channels, with deep expertise in at least two areas such as paid media, lifecycle/email marketing, SEO/AEO, or conversion rate optimization.
• Genuinely AI-native using AI tools in a practical, workflow-driven way to improve speed, quality, insight generation, and execution capacity.
• Experience working in HubSpot or a similar CRM/marketing automation platform, including building workflows, campaigns, dashboards, and reporting from scratch.
• Strong analytical, communication, and collaborations skills, including the ability to interpret performance data, identify trends, and present results-oriented recommendations to leadership and cross-functional stakeholders.
• Ability to work independently, prioritize effectively, and build structure in a role with broad scope and significant ownership.
• High level of curiosity, resourcefulness, and accountability, with a willingness to test ideas, learn quickly, and build from the ground up.
