We’re looking for a Head of Product Marketing. As Head of Product Marketing, you’ll be the strategic linchpin between product, brand, content, and commercial teams. You’ll lead the go-to-market (GTM) strategy for all new product launches and own the positioning, messaging, and narrative across the entire product portfolio.
This is a highly cross-functional leadership role — ideal for a commercially minded storyteller who can think both strategically and creatively, understands the nuances of consumer behavior, and is obsessed with how product, brand, and customer experience intersect.
