Method of Application
ABOUT THE ROLE
- We are looking for a Product Marketer—a high-level individual contributor who is a master of the craft. This role isn’t about managing a large tea; it’s about owning execution and strategy for our most critical product lines.
- You are a “full-stack” marketer who can pivot from high-level strategic positioning in the morning to writing high-converting UI copy in the afternoon. You will be the primary link between the product’s technical capabilities and the customer’s lived experience, ensuring that every feature we ship solves a real problem for Nigerians.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Product Narrative & Messaging: Develop the core value propositions and messaging frameworks for Paga’s consumer and merchant offerings. You ensure our voice is consistent, empathetic, and clear across every touchpoint.
- End-to-End GTM Ownership: Lead the execution of go-to-market plans for new features. You aren’t just overseeing the plan; you are building the assets, coordinating the emails, and ensuring the “in-app” experience matches the marketing promise.
- Customer Advocacy: Act as the internal expert on our users. You’ll conduct interviews and dive into user behavior data to provide the Product team with actionable feedback that shapes the roadmap.
- Lifecycle Marketing: Work closely with the Growth team to design and optimize triggers, notifications, and educational content that move users from “signed up” to “power user.”
- Competitive Intelligence: Stay three steps ahead of the fintech curve. You’ll monitor competitors and market shifts to ensure Paga remains the preferred choice for payments.
- Sales & Agent Support: Equip our massive agent network and sales teams with the narrative tools, one-pagers, and localized content they need to drive adoption on the ground.
WHO YOU ARE
- The Master Practitioner: You have a deep toolkit. You know how to draft a push notification sequence and analyze a cohort retention chart yourself.
- The Bridge Builder: You can talk shop with Engineers and Designers while also being able to translate “tech-speak” into benefits that resonate with a market woman in Kano or a tech founder in Yaba.
- Execution-Focused: You thrive on getting things done. You take pride in the quality of your output and the speed of your delivery.
- Fintech Enthusiast: You aren’t just looking for a job; you are obsessed with how technology can solve the “money problem” in Africa.
KNOWLEDGE AND SKILL REQUIREMENTS
- Experience: 5+ years of hands-on experience in Product Marketing. We are looking for someone who has “been in the trenches” at a fast-growing tech company (Fintech experience preferred).
- Writing Excellence: You must be an exceptional writer. You can write punchy, persuasive copy that drives action.
- Analytical Rigor: You are comfortable using tools like Amplitude, Mixpanel, or SQL to pull your own data and measure the success of your campaigns.
- Adaptability: You are comfortable with ambiguity and can pivot quickly in the fast-moving Nigerian fintech space.
