Ideal candidates have foundations in public accounting (audit) and their CPA certification.
We are seeking a Director of Growth for a social-first agency that’s building something genuinely different in the market. This is a senior, hands-on role for someone who loves building growth from the ground up and wants real ownership over how an agency shows up, attracts clients, and scales.
This role leads all agency marketing and growth strategy in partnership with the agency’s Chief Growth Officer – from positioning and demand generation to actively identifying, prospecting, and converting net-new clients. There’s no inherited playbook here. You’ll help create it.
What You’ll Do
Partner with the CGO to lead the agency’s growth strategy end to end
Lead all agency marketing, positioning, and go-to-market efforts
Identify, prospect, and pursue net-new clients (this role is not passive)
Develop repeatable growth systems, pipelines, and partnerships

This role is ideal for someone with builder energy – someone who thrives in fast-paced, evolving environments and sees ambiguity as opportunity.
The ideal candidate:
Has advertising agency experience or has driven proven growth in an agency-adjacent environment (consulting, creative studio, startup, platform, etc.)
Is results-driven and comfortable being accountable to growth outcomes
Enjoys prospecting, relationship-building, and opening doors
Understands how modern agencies actually win business today
Is a collaborative team player who leads with momentum, not ego

I’m excited to be exclusively working on a Controller search that will really resonate with the operational accounting crowd.
This role is for someone who thrives in the day-to-day of accounting and genuinely enjoys making things run better. Clean closes, solid processes, fewer surprises, and a team that gets stronger over time.
The company is PE-backed and has already completed a Sage Intacct implementation. The focus now is execution, consistency, and operational excellence. The accounting itself is straightforward, but the impact during this phase of transformation is immediate and meaningful.
The role is tied to the south metro, but candidates anywhere in the Twin Cities are fair game. In-office needs are heavier at the beginning and ease up once things are running smoothly, typically landing at one to two days per week, at most.
