Director of Brand & Content
About Verkada
At Verkada, we rethink what it means to be physically safe. We build disruptive, out-of-the-box, security solutions that detect action, identify danger, and keep people and places safe. Using a combination of software and hardware, we’re transforming a space that has seen little innovation for decades. Today we support thousands of customers and we are only getting started. We envision a world in which security systems feel as seamless and modern as the organizations they protect.
Verkada’s Director of Brand and Content will be leading and building a team of passionate content writers and creatives to create concepts that portray Verkada’s story across different mediums that captivate new enterprise customers, bolster our recruiting efforts for top talent and provide brand support for bigger product launches. Given the controversial nature of topics in the enterprise security industry, providing Verkada a strong brand voice and showcasing the many benefits that our ecosystem provides will be crucial to win over the minds and hearts of the public, which will become increasingly more important as bigger organizations adopt Verkada’s security ecosystem.
As the driving force for all things brand at Verkada, we are looking for an individual who has a passion for telling the company’s story, proposes bold new concepts, deeply values how that story comes to life and is able to project manage the team to execute on those concepts.
