GreyBird Pilot Academy, Kolind (Aarhus Airport), DenmarkDo you want to help shape the next generation of commercial pilots — and be the person who helps figure out
where GreyBird should expand next?
If you’re hands-on in Meta Ads Manager, enjoy structured testing, and can turn results into clear recommendations, we’d love to meet you.
GreyBird Pilot Academy is growing internationally, and we’re looking for a Performance Marketing & Social Media Specialist to run paid social tests according to our growth journey across Europe. Your core mission will be to launch and optimize structured experiments in different markets to identify where we see the strongest demand and best potential for opening a new base. Alongside paid, you’ll help run our organic social presence — especially on Instagram and TikTok.
Approximate split: 70–80% paid market testing / 20–30% organic social media.
Your Role & ResponsibilitiesPerformance Marketing (Market Testing & Launch Experiments): 70–80%
You will run our market testing loop end-to-end (execution + learning), primarily in Meta.
- Launch and manage paid campaigns in new European markets (Meta Ads as the primary channel)
- Build simple test structures: hypotheses, budgets, budget forecasts, timelines, KPIs, and what we need to learn per market
- Develop and iterate campaign concepts, hooks, messaging, and creatives across funnel stages
- Produce and optimize short-form video ads and creative variations based on performance insights
- Run structured testing (creative, audiences, formats, landing page angles) and continuously improve results
- Track performance and learnings in Excel / Google Sheets (e.g., CPL/CAC, conversion rates, lead quality signals, cost curves)
- Support landing page setup/iterations in Webflow / WordPress to improve conversion and local relevance
- Turn results into recommendations: which markets to double down on, what to test next, and what a “successful” market looks like
Organic Social Media (Content & Community): 20–30%
You’ll help keep GreyBird active, relevant, and authentic on social — and make sure paid and organic strengthen each other.
- Run GreyBird’s organic presence across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and LinkedIn (focus on Instagram & TikTok)
- Plan and publish content aligned with our social media strategy and brand tone
- Create and edit short-form content using tools like CapCut, Canva, Instagram Edits (or similar)
- Spot trends and formats and translate them into content that fits a modern pilot academy
- Support community management (comments/DMs)
- Use learnings from paid (best hooks/angles) to inform organic content, and vice versa
