Hi 👋 We’re Borro and we’re on a mission to protect our planet by revolutionizing the way we dress our children. 🌍 Will you join us?
Borro is at the forefront of the disruptive rental industry, creating an essential solution to the problem of fast-growing kids by allowing busy parents to rent their baby and kids’ clothes.

We are looking for a passionate Marketing Manager to join us part-time on our journey as a key part of our startup team.
The Role
This is an exciting and creative role where you will work closely with the CMO and founder to implement and evolve the marketing strategy to grow Borro. You will align your marketing efforts to meet business targets and enjoy seeing more and more parents renting their kids clothes! Your work will focus on the following areas:
Organic social media
- Social Media Strategy: Help shape and develop an organic social media strategy based on data and experimentation across appropriate channels such as Instagram, Facebook and TikTok.

- Trending moments: Look for opportunities to jump on current trends to boost our social media presence.
Paid social
- Paid Ads Management: Create and implement Meta ads alongside the organic strategy to drive brand awareness.
- Data and Analytics: Monitor ads doing less of what’s not working, and more of what is, to ensure excellent ROI and lower CAC.
Email Marketing
- Automated flows: Set up automated flows in Klaviyo designed to upsell to existing customers and re-engage churned subscribers.
- Campaign management: Plan, write, schedule, and analyze regular email campaigns to convert email subscribers into paying customers.
- Segmentation: Ensure email campaigns are properly segmented and personalized to deliver the most value to our subscribers.
