As an individual contributor and leader, you will move at startup speed to drive awareness, growth, and adoption of KYZATREX and Testosterone Deficiency as a critical health issue.

• Leverage voices of authority: Activate senior management, patient advocates, and KOLs to amplify credibility and reach.
• Experiment relentlessly: Test and learn across earned, owned, and paid channels- SEO, SEM, social, email, PR-with rapid iteration.
• Demand data: Track KPIs obsessively, optimize campaigns on the fly, and report actionable insights to leadership and the board.
• Collaborate, but push: Work with sales, regulatory, operations, and finance-but drive forward with urgency even when rules slow others down.
• Expand reach: Identify new market opportunities (domestic & international) and move fast to capture them.
What We're Looking For
• A proven growth marketer who has built audiences and driven measurable results in high-stakes or regulated industries.
• 7+ years of progressive marketing leadership, ideally including pharma, biotech, or consumer health.
• Fluent in digital and social media platforms, with the ability to move from strategy to execution in the same day.
• A creative disruptor who thinks beyond templates and finds new ways to win attention and loyalty.
• Strong business acumen with the confidence to challenge assumptions and make tough calls.
• Relentless bias for action-you move fast, adjust faster, and get things done.
Why Join Us
At Marius, you won't just market a product-you'll redefine a category. This is a role for someone who wants to leave a mark, move quickly, and help build a company from the ground up.
