About the role

We're looking for a Brand Marketing Manager who's just as happy staring at a blank whiteboard dreaming up something delightful as they are staring at a Gantt chart making sure that idea actually happens. You'll report to our Head of Brand Strategy & Communications and work closely and collaboratively with teams across the company.

What they're looking for

  • 4–6 years of marketing experience, ideally at a consumer brand, DTC startup, or agency with consumer clients. You've had your hands in enough of the marketing mix to know what good looks like, and you're always thinking up new ways to do it well
  • Strong writing and verbal skills. Everything from a cold outreach email to a campaign brief sounds like it came from the same brand. You’re not necessarily a copywriter but you’re not not good at copywriting
  • A creative point of view. You get us, and you have real opinions on how we show up in the world. You know what's cool, and you never forget we're talking to two audiences at once: parents and kids
  • Brand, brand, brand. You get why it matters more than almost anything else here, and you take real ownership over how we evolve and grow it
  • Comfort with celebrity and partnership work. You've navigated brand-partner relationships before and know how to keep a conversation moving. Even better: you already have a running list of ideas for our growing roster of famous Tin Can households
  • Serious project management instincts. You build the tracker, set the deadline, and chase people down without being asked twice

As we gear up to scale to thousands of families, we’re ready to bring on a Brand Marketing Manager to help make it happen.

This isn't a "take the brief and go" role. We want someone with real creative judgment, someone who gets Tin Can, relishes the weird and wonderful challenge we're up against, and feels how lucky we are to be handing kids the chance to build real, meaningful...
