Senior Strategic Growth Lead

We're looking for a sharp, strategic, and execution-focused Senior Strategic Growth Lead to drive the expansion of our Media Partnerships portfolio.

You'll sit at the helm of a high-impact team, managing relationships with key aggregators, comparison sites, and affiliates while hunting for the next big growth unlock.

We believe three things matter for every role at Lemonade: drive to push through challenges, efficiency that keeps standards high while moving fast, and adaptability that lets you pivot with data and AI insights. These aren't buzzwords, they're how we actually work.

Our AI-first approach isn't just a tagline either. We're building the future of insurance with AI at the center, and we need people who are genuinely excited to learn and grow alongside these tools.

Optimize performance through actionable data analysis that improves efficiency, CPA, and volume

Maintain operational excellence by constantly optimizing team processes for maximum efficiency

Orchestrate cross-functional alignment between partner incentives and company economics alongside Analytics, Product, and Growth teams

What you'll need:

5+ years managing affiliate or media partnerships teams, preferably at a B2C company operating at scale

Deep industry knowledge of comparison sites, aggregators, and how to negotiate and win in this space

Data proficiency with tools like Looker, ability to analyze complex funnels and translate numbers into business insights

Strategic and tactical balance - setting 12-month vision while rolling up sleeves for operational issues

Proven leadership experience managing people and supporting ambitious growth plans while developing team talent

Excellent communication skills to influence stakeholders from external partners to internal finance and product teams

Ready to work in an office environment a minimum of 3 days a week
