  • Build and lead an exceptional brand organization, attracting and developing great people and creating an environment where they can do the best work of their careers.

What you'll bring
  • 15+ years in brand, creative, or marketing, including leadership at the VP level.
  • A track record of building or transforming global brands at scale. B2B technology and public company experience preferred.
  • Exceptional taste and a high creative bar.
  • A talent for making complex ideas simple, human, and compelling.
  • Experience building and leading high-performing teams.
