Yemert empowers smallholder farmers across Africa by reducing risk, increasing income, and promoting sustainable agriculture through affordable insurance, market access, and climate-based rewards.

We are recruiting to fill the position below:

Job Title: Marketing Lead

Location: Idu, Abuja

About the job

• We’re not your typical agritech company.
• We’re flipping the script on how smallholder farmers across Africa grow, earn, and thrive. We provide crop insurance, direct market access, and climate financing, but at our core, we’re building economic freedom for the people who feed the continent.
• If you believe storytelling and strategy can shift culture and create movements, not just followers, you’ll fit right in just keep reading.

The Role

• We need a Marketing Lead who is fearless about being different. Someone who can build a brand that feels alive, loud, and impossible to ignore.
• You’ll be the brain and voice behind Yemert’s growth story, crafting the strategy, the tone, and the moments that make people talk about us.
• This is not a “run social media” role. It’s a chance to craft the voice of an agritech brand that challenges the status quo, reaches millions of farmers and buyers, and drives growth in one of Africa’s most critical sectors.
• We’re looking for someone who can make marketing feel like rebellion and growth feel inevitable.

What you’ll actually do

• Build and lead bold campaigns that make people stop scrolling.
• Develop and lead Yemert’s growth and marketing strategy across digital and offline channels.
• Build our brand identity, tone, and story across social, web, and community platforms.
• Use data, culture, and storytelling to drive engagement, leads, and adoption.
• Work with the product and growth team to build experiences people talk about.
• Experiment with creative growth hacks, offline, online, and everywhere in between.
• Craft narratives that make people curious, farmers excited, and communities proud.
• Build an audience that doesn’t just watch but joins the mission.
• Track what works, kill what doesn’t, and keep the energy high.

You’re our kind of crazy, if you:

• Have built or led marketing for startups that grew fast.
• Think “unconventional” is your middle name.
• Can make strategy and storytelling dance together.
• Understand culture, not just algorithms.
• Know how to grow communities, not just followers.
• Can show real results, virality, traction, engagement, conversions, something.
• Hate bureaucracy and love freedom.
• Are fluent in digital marketing tools and content strategy.
• Understand how to connect with diverse African audiences across languages.
• Can show your work, not just talk about it.

Why you’ll love it here

• You’ll be part of the founding team not just an employee.
• You’ll have the freedom to create, test, and break things.
• You’ll help shape a brand with purpose and guts.
• You’ll work with a team that moves fast, thinks bold, and backs each other.
• And yes, you’ll get to build something that genuinely changes lives.
