JOB OVERVIEW

Looking for a cold email expert to own our entire outbound lead generation function. This is not a basic copy-paste job. We need someone who can strategize, build, and manage a high-performance cold email system from the ground up — including technical infrastructure, copywriting, list building, and ongoing optimization.

If you have built cold email systems that consistently achieve 40%+ open rates and 5%+ reply rates, and you know the difference between SPF, DKIM, and DMARC — we want to hear from you.

What you'll be doing
Build the full system: Set up and manage sending infrastructure including domain warming, mailbox rotation, and email service providers (Instantly, Smartlead, or similar)

Write high-converting copy: Research ICPs and craft personalized cold email sequences (3–5 steps) with strong hooks, clear CTAs, and follow-up cadences

Build and verify lead lists: Source, clean, and validate targeted prospect lists using tools like Apollo, Hunter, Clay, or ZoomInfo

Automate and integrate: Connect tools via Zapier, Make (Integromat), or n8n to automate list imports, reply tagging, CRM updates, and lead handoff

Track and optimize: Monitor KPIs (open rate, reply rate, positive reply rate, meetings booked), A/B test subject lines and copy, and report weekly

Manage deliverability: Monitor inbox placement, maintain sender reputation, and resolve spam/blacklist issues proactively

Must-haves
3+ years of hands-on cold email experience with proven, documented results (open rates, reply rates, meetings booked)

Proficient in at least one sending platform: Instantly.ai, Smartlead, Lemlist, or Woodpecker

Deep knowledge of email deliverability: SPF, DKIM, DMARC, domain age, warm-up protocols, and inbox vs. spam placement

Experience with lead sourcing tools: ---------- , Clay, ---------- , LinkedIn Sales Navigator, or ZoomInfo

Automation experience with Zapier, Make, or n8n to connect tools and build hands-off workflows

Excellent English copywriting skills — you can write like a human, not a robot

Nice to have
CRM experience (HubSpot / GoHighLevel)
---------- proficiency
AI personalization at scale
Basic Google Sheets / data skills
Experience with B2B SaaS or agencies
Looker Studio / reporting dashboards

How to apply
To be considered, your application must include all of the following — applications without these will not be reviewed:

1.
Screenshot or report showing your best cold email campaign results (open rate, reply rate, meetings booked)

2.
A sample 3-step cold email sequence you've written — include the subject line, email body, and follow-ups

3.
Brief description (5–7 sentences) of a cold email system you built — tools used, how it was automated, and results achieved

4.
Start your message with the phrase "Cold email expert reporting for duty" so we know you read this listing carefully.

5. leave your ---------- below.
