We are looking for a senior marketing leader to build and scale our marketing function from the ground up. This person is highly strategic and deeply hands-on; someone who can craft a compelling, data-informed vision while also executing at the ground level. The ideal candidate will lead with a customer-centric approach to marketing by educating, increasing awareness, and building the brand through compelling storytelling.
This leader will be responsible for everything from setting long-term brand and growth strategies to leading acquisition campaigns, storytelling, and analytics, while hiring and mentoring a small but high-performing team.
