About Aux Insights

Aux Insights helps private equity firms and their portfolio companies unlock smarter growth through digital marketing.
Sitting at the intersection of consulting and marketing, we combine analytical rigor, performance marketing expertise, and a bias for action to drive results.

Co-founded by Kasey Grelle and Jesse Pujji, Aux blends CMO-level insight with deep consulting experience to deliver practical, high-impact strategies. Whether evaluating new investments or accelerating portfolio performance, we help clients move faster, market smarter, and maximize return on investment.

The Role

We’re looking for seasoned growth leaders who can plug into our clients’ businesses and own the digital performance engine. As a Fractional Growth Marketing Lead, you’ll embed with private equity-backed companies to assess the current state, define the path forward, and architect digital strategies that unlock real, measurable growth.

You might be called on to lead marketing during a transitional period, support a due diligence process, or drive a zero-to-one digital strategy. This is a senior-level role for strategic thinkers who thrive in ambiguous environments and know how to create clarity, velocity, and results.

What You’ll Do

Act as Interim Marketing Leadership

• Step into a senior marketing seat (VP, CMO, or Head of Growth equivalent) to drive impact during inflection points
• Partner directly with CEOs, CFOs, and PE sponsors to define and execute growth marketing roadmaps
• Transition responsibility to internal hires post-engagement (and help us hire them)

Build & Execute Digital Growth Plans

• Architect and implement performance marketing strategies across key channels (SEM, Paid Social, SEO, Email, Affiliate, etc.)
• Define clear KPIs and growth targets; build accountability around them
• Identify quick wins and long-term levers, balancing strategic vision with scrappy execution

Support Diligence & Value Creation Plans

• Evaluate digital marketing maturity and capability during diligence
• Assess channel performance, customer acquisition cost, LTV, and overall growth efficiency
• Contribute to value creation planning and PE sponsor communications

Drive Martech, Data, and AI Enablement

• Identify opportunities to streamline or scale using AI, automation, and smarter tooling
• Build dashboards, reporting, and growth loops that can be owned after you
• Work across the portfolio to create repeatable frameworks and share learnings

Who You Are

• Executive-Level Marketer: You’ve led growth or marketing functions in-house or in fractional capacities—ideally for VC or PE-backed businesses
• Full-Stack Operator: You can zoom out to think brand and positioning, and zoom in to troubleshoot performance in Google Ads
• Consulting-Grade Communicator: You speak fluently with both CMOs and CFOs, and know how to translate marketing performance into business outcomes
• Builder at Heart: You’re excited to bring structure to ambiguity, create playbooks, and leave things better than you found them
• Private Equity Savvy: You understand the urgency, rigor, and ROI expectations of the PE world—and know how to deliver in that environment

What We Offer

• High-Impact Work: Be the strategic driver of growth in companies where your expertise truly moves the needle
• Flexible Engagements: Join on a full-time, part-time, or project basis—tailored to fit the right opportunities
• Smart, Supportive Team: Work alongside consultants, analysts, and marketers who care about quality, speed, and outcomes
• Continuous Learning: Tap into best practices across our portfolio and learn from peers in the Aux ecosystem
• Low-Ego, High-Performance Culture: Join a team where sharp thinking, real ownership, and good people win the day

Compensation

• Anticipated Range: $100–$250/hr depending on scope and expertise. Final compensation will depend on experience, project duration, and level of strategic ownership. Contract-based candidates welcomed.
