About Betterment
Betterment is a leading, technology-driven financial services company that offers investing, savings and retirement solutions for retail investors and investment advisors as well as financial wellness solutions, including a 401(k) for small and medium-sized businesses. Our team is passionate about our mission, to empower people to build wealth with confidence and ease. We’re headquartered in NYC and offer hybrid NY-based positions (four days/ week in-office, with no required office days during the summer and winter holidays).
About the Role
Betterment’s mission is to empower people to build wealth with confidence and ease. We're a trusted home for investing, saving, and retirement for the long term — more than 1 million customers trust us to put their money to work and we manage $65B+ of their wealth. Our Acquisition Marketing team introduces prospective retail customers to the products behind that promise: automated investing that lets people build wealth without the busywork, and tax-saving technology that works in the background. Guided by our passion for this mission, we get excited about working together — across marketing channels — on new, innovative ways to reach new customers.
This is a hybrid acquisition role spanning our full paid portfolio. You'll own and optimize traditional performance channels — SEM, affiliate, and programmatic — alongside our growing mobile app business, with every channel measured against the same north star: funded accounts, efficiently acquired.
On the mobile side, we've built an ASO foundation and a set of established best practices. We're looking for someone who can take that work further — sharpening how we show up in the App Store and Google Play, and scaling paid app campaigns that deliver real customers, not just installs.
The ideal candidate is a media-savvy performance marketer who is equally comfortable in a search auction, a partner negotiation, and an app store listing, and who is always on the hunt for new ways to break through the advertising clutter. This position works closely with creative, compliance, insights, product marketing, accounting, and subject matter experts across the organization.
This role is based out of our NYC office. Below we've reflected the base salary range for this position. Actual salaries may vary depending on factors including but not limited to location, experience, and performance. The range listed is just one component of Betterment’s total compensation package for employees.
- New York City: $121,000 - $151,500
This job may also be eligible for variable compensation in the form of a company incentive bonus.
A Day in the Life:
- Own and optimize a portfolio of paid acquisition channels — SEM, affiliate, programmatic, and mobile app — against funded account, CPA, and ROAS goals
