Summary Generated by Built In

Forum's Venture Studio is more than an investor — we’re builders. Our team works side-by-side with founders from day zero, helping them validate ideas, launch products, and scale companies. Joining our internal team means playing a direct role in shaping the next generation of B2B SaaS startups, while contributing to the systems, processes, and culture that make our model thrive.

We’re looking for a Growth & GTM Lead on a 6-month contract. You’ll work directly with 3–5 portfolio founders across healthcare AI, enterprise SaaS, consumer apps, and more—helping them engage with customers, validate product-market fit, and run scrappy, channel-agnostic growth experiments.

This is a hands-on role for someone who thrives in 0→1 environments, loves learning new industries quickly, and can operate across consumer and B2B contexts. You'll be learning alongside founders and adapting your approach to fit each company's unique market and customer base.

What You'll Do:

Growth Experimentation

  • Execute multi-channel experiments (email, LinkedIn, communities, partnerships, content, ads)

  • Test messaging, channels, and tactics to find repeatable acquisition loops

  • Build landing pages, run cold outreach campaigns, and coordinate launch moments

  • Track metrics and iterate quickly based on what's working

  • Leverage AI tools to accelerate testing and execution

Go-to-Market Strategy

  • Help founders define their ICP and craft compelling positioning

  • Manage multiple outbound campaigns

  • Identify distribution channels and partnership opportunities specific to each vertical

  • Support founders in building their first sales motions

  • Adapt strategies as you learn what works in different markets

You're A Fit If You Have

Required:

  • 3-5+ years in growth, marketing, or GTM roles (startup or agency experience preferred)

  • Proven track record running successful customer acquisition experiments across multiple channels

  • Experience with both B2C and B2B go-to-market motions

  • Strong ability to execute: you're comfortable writing copy, running ads, doing cold outreach, and analyzing data

  • Comfort working across different companies and industries simultaneously—you adapt quickly and enjoy variety

  • Active user of AI tools and comfortable integrating them into your workflow

  • Scrappy mindset and high bias to action—you test fast and learn faster

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills

  • Comfort with ambiguity and working with pre-product founders

Bonus:

  • Experience at an early-stage startup (seed through Series A)

  • Background in product marketing or growth marketing roles

  • Experience working across multiple industries or with portfolio companies

  • Previous experience in venture capital, accelerators, or startup studios

  • Strong network in tech/startup communities

What Makes This Unique

  • Portfolio variety: Work with multiple founders simultaneously across healthcare, enterprise SaaS, consumer tech, and emerging verticals

  • Continuous learning: Every company teaches you something new about a different market, customer segment, and growth motion

  • Studio resources: Collaborate with our product design, engineering, and business teams to support founders

  • AI-native environment: Work alongside founders building AI products and use AI tools to accelerate your own work

  • High impact: Your work directly determines whether companies find PMF and secure their next round
