Emerging Channels Manager

ABOUT GOODR

We create and sell $25 active sunglasses for anyone. No slip, no bounce, all polarized, all fun. Interested in joining our team? Keep reading.

OUR VALUES: We have two core values: Fun & Authenticity.

• FUN = Being sh*tty isn’t fun. Agreed? Taking pride in your work, finding joy in being GREAT, and celebrating wins… and losses. Now, that’s fun!
• AUTHENTICITY = Focusing on being authentic over being liked. (Next-level guru stuff. Count it.)

Fun Fact: We do not allow email to be sent internally. Carrier pigeons only. JK, we use Slack.

AUTONOMY: We practice autonomy, empowerment, and accountability so that every team member can be in control of their own life.

• HYBRID WORKING: Most roles are only required to be in office every Tuesday and Thursday with the occasional third day thrown in.
• PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT: We have an all-company learning program so that we’re constantly leveling up our skills.

SUSTAINABILITY: We think Earth’s pretty rad. That’s why we take action wherever possible to limit our impact on the planet.

• 1% FOR THE PLANET MEMBER: 1% of goodr’s annual sales go directly to environmental organizations.
• CARBON NEUTRAL: In 2019, goodr became a 100% carbon neutral company.

Fun Fact: Each year we create limited-edition sunglasses made from 100% recycled materials called “These Shades are Trash.” Check out a pair and join the movement!

ABOUT THE ROLE

Some people are adrenaline junkies. But not you. You are a STRATEGY junkie. Ever since you were a wee tot, you’ve been coming up with ways to do as little as possible in order to gain as much as possible. You didn’t waste your time manning a lemonade stand - you hired some other kid to stand in the hot sun, squeezing lemons until their tiny hands cramped up. Meanwhile, you sat in your air conditioned house watching cartoons on repeat and simply paid that child a percentage.

If all that strategic planning has carried over into your career, then our Emerging Channel Manager is perfect for you!!! You’d be joining our Marketing team to analyze and improve all emerging channel marketing strategies in order to crush our goals.
