Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Lead the global diner acquisition strategy across New Zealand, Australia, the UK, and Ireland to drive sustainable growth. Manage performance agencies, media investment, and cross-functional partnerships with Product and Data teams to optimize the user journey.
Requires at least 5 years of experience in growth or performance marketing, preferably within a high-growth consumer marketplace or app-based business.

About the opportunity
We're hiring a Global Growth Marketing Manager to lead First Table's diner acquisition across New Zealand, Australia, UK and Ireland. It's a brand-new, senior role for a commercially sharp growth marketer who wants real ownership and the room to prove what they can do.
You'll report to our Chief Marketing Officer and work shoulder-to-shoulder with Marketing, Product, and Data, and our regional teams to shape how First Table grows. You'll balance short-term performance with long-term demand, and pull together data, experimentation, sharp creative and commercial judgement into one connected growth engine.
This isn’t a “manage the ads” role. It’s an opportunity to influence how a global consumer marketplace invests, experiments, and scales.
About us
At First Table, our vision is simple: to be the first place diners go to book a table.
Proudly established in Queenstown, New Zealand - where our head office is based - we've been leading the charge in the hospitality tech industry for over a decade, with operations spanning New Zealand, Australia, UK and Ireland.
First Table is a dining discovery platform that connects diners to restaurants through their love of food. Through our clever tech, we help restaurants get their night off to a great start and give diners a compelling reason to try somewhere new. It’s a win-win situation. From early bird offers to last table reservations, we make discovering and booking great dining experiences fast, easy, and rewarding.
At the heart of everything we do are our values: Win-Win-Win, Own It and Grow Together. These guide how we show up for each other, our restaurant partners, and our diners and they’re a big part of what makes First Table a great place to work.

About the role
You’ll own First Table’s global diner acquisition strategy, deciding where and how we invest to drive sustainable, profitable growth.
You’ll lead the relationship with our performance agency, shape channel mix and media investment, and work closely with internal teams to improve the journey from first touch through to first booking.
Growth at First Table is shaped by more than campaign performance. You’ll help connect paid media, brand demand, organic growth, product experience, creative, data, and customer value into one clear growth system.
It's a role for someone who can zoom out to the big picture, dive into the detail when it counts, and turn insight into action across multiple markets.
