Head of Marketing

Noun Project is building a global visual language that unites the world - a language that allows quick and easy communication no matter who you are or where you are. We believe that visual language has the power to shape, reinforce, and change perceptions. Through initiatives like the Redefining Women and Diversity in Tech collections, we are building the most extensive and diverse collection of icons and photos available. Over the last decade, our community of creators has contributed millions of visuals used and loved by over 10 million people around the world.

We are looking for a growth-minded, analytics-driven Head of Marketing to lead our marketing vision, strategy, and execution. Reporting to the CEO, you will lead our small marketing team to accelerate our user acquisition growth and subscription revenue by both leveraging our existing customer base of over 10 million users, as well as unlocking new avenues through strategic marketing initiatives.

We believe broad perspectives are fundamental to serving our international community, and that diverse experiences are the key to innovation, collaboration, and awareness of the globalized context we live in. We strongly encourage people from backgrounds currently underrepresented in tech to apply and look forward to welcoming the best candidates to our team regardless of their national origin, gender, ethnicity, religion, or sexual orientation.
