About the role
Paytm is India's leading mobile payments and financial services distribution company, building technology that brings small businesses and consumers into the digital economy. This role sits within the merchant lending business, which serves kirana stores, retailers, restaurants and service merchants who accept payments on the platform. The growth manager will own the multi-channel campaign calendar that turns the merchant base into active borrowers, working with Product, Risk, Credit, Analytics and Sales on eligibility checks, applications, disbursals and repeat borrowing.
What you will do
- Own the campaign calendar for merchant lending: new-to-credit acquisition, pre-approved offer activation, top-ups, renewals and win-back of dormant borrowers.
- Plan and run campaigns across push notifications, SMS, WhatsApp, email, in-app banners, IVR/outbound calling and the field sales force.
- Build merchant segments using transaction volumes, tenure, category, geography and eligibility, and tailor offers and messaging to each.
- Design and run A/B tests on creatives, copy, offer framing, timing and channel mix; scale what works and kill what doesn't.
- Track the full funnel — reach, click, eligibility check, application, KYC, sanction, disbursal — and fix the biggest drop-offs with Product and Ops.
- Manage campaign budgets and incentives (cashback, fee waivers, interest-rate offers) against clear CAC and ROI targets.
- Coordinate with lending partners on offer constructs, approved bases and co-branded communication.
- Ensure every communication complies with RBI Digital Lending Guidelines, fair-practice codes and partner brand rules (KFS, APR disclosure, no misleading claims).
- Run festive and seasonal pushes (Diwali, wedding season, quarter-ends) when merchant working-capital needs peak.
- Report weekly on campaign performance and share learnings with leadership.
- Disbursal volume and count driven by campaigns
- Funnel conversion rates (offer view → application → disbursal)
- Cost per disbursal and campaign ROI
- Repeat / renewal borrowing rate
