Head Of Growth Marketing

Senior Leadership Role  |  Reports Directly to the Founders  |  Multi-Country Remit: UAE, UK, US (future state)

The Head of Growth Marketing is a senior leadership role that reports directly to the Founders and owns growth marketing across multiple countries, starting with the UAE and UK and extending to the US as Metabolic.Health scales into that market.

It is Metabolic.Healths first dedicated growth marketing leadership hire and is based in Dubai, UAE. The role owns the full patient acquisition engine from the first digital impression through to a booked appointment, across every market it covers.

It turns the Founders growth vision into a scalable, data-driven strategy across Meta, Google, and TikTok, and provides oversight and guidance on SEO, which is executed within the Marketing team, so every channel keeps lowering CAC and growing patient volume. The role builds the tracking and measurement foundation, including first-party data capture and server-side tracking, that lets the team make fast, defensible decisions as spend grows.

It also sets up a lead scoring model that separates high-intent patients from casual browsers so budget follows real demand.

The role works closely with Medical Staff to keep every claim clinically accurate and compliant with DHA and the equivalent regulator in each market it operates in, with Product and Tech to improve the digital patient journey, and with Finance to manage unit economics, then hands each qualified, booked lead to the Patient Services and Contact Centre team to take the conversation forward. It stays aligned with the wider Marketing team on brand and messaging, and runs a regular cadence with the Founders and senior stakeholders so growth priorities, budget, and resourcing stay in sync across every market.

Role Scope & Boundaries

The Head of Growth Marketing owns the paid and organic performance marketing strategy, the marketing budget, the creative testing engine, and the tracking infrastructure behind patient acquisition, across the UAE, the UK, and the US as that market comes online. SEO execution sits with the Marketing team, with this role providing oversight and guidance to keep it aligned to CAC and patient growth targets rather than running it directly. The role does not own the Patient Services or contact centre function, does not manage business development or partnership negotiations, and does not give clinical opinions or interpret patient results. Every patient-facing claim, testimonial, or public campaign needs Medical Director sign-off before it goes live, in line with DHA advertising and social media guidelines and the equivalent regulator in each market it operates in. As lead volume and channel complexity grow, the role can flag whether the clinic needs additional growth marketing headcount or expanded contact centre capacity, though that decision sits with clinic leadership. Final decisions on patient data handling and consent remain with the designated compliance or privacy officer, not this role.
