General Manager (Insurance Leads Marketplace)

• Convert growth into strong unit economics (LTV/CAC), best-in-class QA & compliance, and trusted CX in a regulated category.

• Build and lead a small, elite team to scale fast without breaking quality or consent.

• Full P&L for the Insurance vertical; quarterly planning, forecasting, and disciplined budget management.

• GTM: ICPs (consumers, agencies, brokers), positioning by line of business, geo rollout, and channel mix (search, affiliates, partnerships, paid social).

• Supply & demand liquidity: recruiting, onboarding, and enabling licensed agencies/brokers; churn prevention; incentive design.

• Lead quality & routing: consent capture and verification, lead scoring, geo/line matching, real-time dispatch (<30s), refunds/disputes policy.

• Compliance & privacy: implement one-to-one TCPA consent, DNC/opt-out handling (honor within 10 business days), consent logs and audit trails. fcc.govdocs.fcc.gov

• Performance marketing: daily experimentation, creative testing, attribution truth, channel ROI.

• Product & data: collaborate with engineering/design on scoring models, fraud prevention, dashboards; instrument full-funnel metrics.

• Operations: playbooks, QA, payments, vendor management (dialers/call centers, verification/consent tech), SLAs.

• Team: hire A-players across growth, ops, partnerships; build a culture of ownership, clarity, and speed.
