Job Summary

Own end-to-end communications for Brick across strategy, executive visibility, and product launches, shaping culture-driven campaigns and managing key spokespeople.

  • Own end-to-end communications strategy and KPIs
  • Manage founders and internal spokespeople for press moments
  • Lead launch and expansion communications for new products and markets

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Communications Strategy: Own end-to-end communications strategy for Brick, from always-on press and thought leadership to reactive and crisis comms. Set the goals, pillars, and voice that guide every story we tell, and own the KPIs behind it — coverage volume, reach, share of voice, and sentiment.
  • Spokespeople & Executive Visibility: Manage Brick's spokespeople, including building and protecting our founders' public presence and identifying, developing, and prepping additional internal spokespeople as the company scales.
  • Category-Defining Consumer Communications: Drive the creative communications strategies that secure Brick as the leading brand in its space through cultural moments, thought leadership, and storytelling.
  • Launch & Expansion Communications: Lead communications strategy for new product launches and brand expansion — new markets, channels, and partnerships — partnering with Product Marketing and Brand to make sure every launch has a press moment worthy of it.

Requirements

  • You've run comms strategy end-to-end: You've owned communications strategy in-house or at an agency, ideally for a consumer or DTC brand, and can point to press, cultural, or category wins you drove.
  • You know how to build and manage spokespeople: You've coached founders or executives for press and public moments, and know how to protect their time while making the most of it.
  • You think culturally, not just tactically: You can spot the cultural moment or narrative that makes a brand the category-defining name, not just another player in the space.
  • You manage agencies like an owner: You know how to direct and get the best out of an external PR team, not just receive updates from one.
  • You're low ego and high ownership: You move seamlessly between strategy and execution, thrive in ambiguity, and bring the energy that makes the people around you better. DTC or consumer brand background strongly preferred.
  • This is a full-time hybrid role (preference for New York City or Chicago based candidates).

Preferred

  • DTC or consumer brand background strongly preferred.

Benefits

  • We offer competitive compensation, meaningful equity, and comprehensive benefits for you and your family. We also prioritize flexibility, time to recharge, and a culture that supports both high performance and sustainable work.
