We’re good. Make us famous.
Nah but in all seriousness, we’re looking for someone to… Bring leads. Break dashboards. Make salespeople dangerous.
We’re SmartGrass  New Zealand’s premium artificial grass company. We don’t just sell turf. We transform spaces, lifestyles, and the way people live outdoors. And we’re scaling fast.
We’re looking for a hands-on marketing leader who can turn that momentum into compounding demand, and make our sales team’s lives stupidly easy.
If you love building lead engines, crafting conversion journeys, and shipping content at pace — keep reading.
The Opportunity
You want impact? Here it is.
This isn’t a marketing role where you manage ads and report metrics. This is the role that drives the growth of an entire company.
We need a Marketing & Brand Manager who knows how to turn heads, win hearts, and fill the sales pipeline.
Someone who’s brave enough to say no to average.
Someone who knows great marketing makes people stop scrolling.
Someone with guts, taste, and the instinct to earn attention — not buy it.
If you’ve mentally rebuilt our homepage already… if your camera roll is half screenshots of great ads… if you care as much about conversion as creativity, then you’re our kind of person.
How We Work (and Why You’ll Love It)
We’re a company that moves fast because we’re built for growth.
Your ideas go live this week, not after another steering committee pre-meeting.
You’ll lead creative campaigns that turn into visible business impact, not theory.
You’ll be working inside a growing, visual, and topical category with endless creative potential.
Our sales consultants will high-five you because your assets pre-sell and help them close faster.
You’ll experiment boldly, learn quickly, and help shape the future of a brand that’s scaling across NZ and beyond.
What You’ll Do
- Drive the marketing strategy that fuels SmartGrass’ growth nationwide. 
- Plan, manage, and execute standout events that get people talking and generate leads. 
- Build campaigns that deliver real sales, not just engagement. 
- Run social media that sparks attention, builds authority, and drives traffic. 
- Produce video ads, creative assets, and content that makes people stop, click, and buy. 
- Oversee and evolve the SmartGrass website. Optimise it, redesign it, make it convert.

- Use CRM and data tools to automate, optimise, and scale what works. 
- Champion the SmartGrass brand — premium, innovative, and industry-leading. 
- Support recruitment marketing that helps bring more great people into the team. 
You’ll thrive here if you:
- Roll your eyes at “brand awareness” that can’t be measured. 
- Get irrationally excited by a clean analytics dashboard or a landing page that just works. 
- Have spent more time in Meta Ads Manager than Netflix. 
- Can dream up campaigns that make the competition question their life choices  
- You binge creative strategy, performance marketing, and design psychology podcasts like caffeine. 
Why SmartGrass
We’ve built something special... but we’re just getting started. This is your chance to lead the charge in a category leader in a very fast growing industry.
You’ll work shoulder-to-shoulder with the Managing Director, own the marketing budget, and see your ideas shift sales numbers fast.
You’ll have the freedom to experiment, the autonomy to act, and the pressure to perform.
But the exciting part? As Marketing Employee #1, you’ll shape how marketing is done here and scale your own team as we grow across New Zealand — and the globe.
Location: With three branches across NZ, Christchurch is ideal but we’d consider Wellington or Auckland if you’re too good to pass up. But fair warning: once you visit Christchurch HQ, you'll probably move here anyway.
