Vacature

Acquisition Marketing Manager

Basic-Fit wants to become the global market leader in fitness, and the Acquisition Marketing Manager makes sure the members keep coming to match that ambition. Responsible for acquiring new members across all markets, they align the company’s fitness proposition with customer needs and turn those insights into strategies across online and offline media.

The role owns the full acquisition journey, from a prospect’s first touchpoint to a completed membership sign-up. That journey runs across the complete media mix. TV, out-of-home, and radio weigh just as heavily as online and partnerships, so that brand objectives are met alongside sales targets.

The Brand Communication Team develops the campaign concepts and content. The acquisition team decides where and how those campaigns reach their audience, buys the media, briefs the agencies, and carries full responsibility for the media budget.

Pricing and proposition
Alongside the E-commerce lead in the team, the Acquisition Marketing Manager optimizes the core acquisition channels, with basic-fit.com as the main focus. With the Finance department, they continuously optimize the member proposition, including the pricing and promotion strategy. Success is measured on sign-ups, yield, revenue, and brand building. Every new member has to earn back the cost of acquiring them, and Basic-Fit has to stay the obvious choice long after a campaign ends. Supported by UX, UI, data, and innovation, the acquisition team makes sure that the attention generated through media converts into members.

Reporting directly to the Digital Marketing Director and working closely with the CCO, the Acquisition Marketing Manager leads a team of nine: two Data Analysts, a Media Manager, a Digital Operations Manager, an E-commerce Manager, a Website PO, a Content Marketing Specialist, and two Performance Marketers. Beyond the team, the role means close collaboration with the company’s media and data agencies, local agencies in the international markets, and the Marketing Managers in each country, to achieve the optimal media mix and strategy.

A confident stakeholder manager, this person translates insights into clear recommendations for strategic business decisions. The role combines a deep understanding of omnichannel sales with a sharp feel for what moves consumers.

This opportunity is made for an entrepreneurial acquisition marketer who wants to lead a high-performing team and shape the growth engine of Basic-Fit. Every strategy that turns ambitions into members brings more people to exercise and makes working out part of their everyday life.
