Senior Director or VP of Marketing Real Food Works
THIS JOB HAS EXPIRED
Real Food Works is a mission-driven startup founded by a team of experienced entrepreneurs who believe that people, our planet, and everything on it, are better off when we eat plant-based. Our company exists to make it easy for people to eat real food so that more of us will.
We offer a weekly subscription program of healthy meals prepared by local independent restaurants and delivered fresh to consumers. Our model is based on the insight that restaurants have excess capacity on Mondays and Tuesdays. Our partner restaurants use their slow periods to prepare meals that meet our high nutritional standards. Our food is delicious and good for you! Our subscribers tell us that they love the service. They say that they
feel more energetic
lose weight
lower their cholesterol
have improved concentration, focus and clear-headedness
get better, more restful sleep
have fewer colds and flus
They also appreciate the educational aspects of our program. And, of course, its convenience.
We have successfully piloted the program in Philadelphia and are preparing to launch in New York City in 2013.
The one missing skill set on our team is marketing. We are looking for an up-and-comer who shares our sense of purpose: to make a healthier America. You must be whip-smart and driven, yet have a sense of humor and work well in a team. You will get unbounded responsibility for developing our brand (with LOTS of input), our marketing strategy and plan, and for executing that plan. You will be fully accountable for customer acquisition.
You should have broad marketing experience, including lots of online (SEO, PPC, display, affiliate, etc) and other direct channels (direct mail, radio, TV) but also traditional advertising, event marketing, and PR. You need to be strategic and very analytical, with a creative bent and the skills to drive implementation internally and through vendors. And you need to have a track record of marketing success and be able to prove it to us with results, not just accomplishments.
This is an opportunity to shape an important company with a team of proven entrepreneurs. We look forward to hearing from you!
Please include a cover email explaining why you want to join and why you think you're a fit in addition to attaching a resume or linking to one.

| Company Profile: | Real Food Works is a startup that provides a convenient subscription program of healthy meals prepared by local independent restaurants and delivered fresh each week.
Our solution drives an extraordinary range of benefits:
- High quality food prepared to our plant-based nutritional specifications (whole foods, mostly vegetables, fruits, grains, low oil, no salt, limited and carefully selected animal proteins)
- Cost effective supply because our food is prepared in the restaurants' downtime on Mondays and Tuesdays
- Scalability - low capital requirements and centralized management will enable scale within and across markets
- Extreme variety of food style and taste, in an industry where the 1 reason for customer churn is boredom
Our primary target market is health conscious, educated, high income people 40-60 who want the convenience of delivered food. Sub segments include people with health issues (cardiac disease, cancer, diabetes) and those who want to lose a moderate amount of weight.
Founded in May 2012, we have an outstanding early stage management team with extensive experience running venture-capital-backed companies. We are now building out the rest of the team, mainly in NYC. We are already market with a successful pilot in Philadelphia and plan to launch in NYC early in 2013 then expand to additional markets.
