Senior Director, Marketing

  • Full-time

Company Description

Events in recent years have made us all too familiar with the havoc that natural disasters can wreak, and the increasing frequency and intensity with which they are occurring.

Despite record levels of losses, conventional methods of catastrophe risk modeling continue to paint at best an incomplete picture of these threats.

Zesty.ai uses novel data gathering and machine learning approaches to produce higher quality information about the risks to property from catastrophes like floods and wildfires. While AI alone may not be able to thwart these disasters, it can help communities around the world become more prepared for them, and ultimately that will lead to better outcomes for business and society.

As a Senior Director of Marketing, you are comfortable and excited to lead marketing at a fast growing B2B startup. You will work closely with the Founders who see immense value in marketing when done right. You will also be working with Product and Sales leaders and provide guidance on marketing strategies. Furthermore, you will oversee content development and manage tactical marketing initiatives that give a differentiated voice to Zesty.ai.
