About The Role

At Ramp we embrace experimentation, aren’t afraid of being the first to try something new, and publicly applaud rapid failure. In the indomitable words of our co-founder and CTO, you can just do things here.

That’s the internal ethos we’re looking for in our Brand and Industry Communications Lead. You’ll have a unique role in that you’ll touch many areas of external comms: leading our non-tech industry push, economics program, and overall team operations. These are all emerging areas for the team that directly tie to the long term growth of the company. There is also a lot to build and do to get them off the ground. Which should be an exciting prospect because you’re the kind of person who loves taking a program vision and figuring out the steps to make it happen. Working cross-functionally to do so is what you enjoy the most.

Our ideal candidate is high agency, attuned to the cultural zeitgeist, and excited at the idea of “doing” vs. “managing.” You’re a chameleon of the comms world, able to flex into many areas. You also love telling a great story, and are constantly seeking novel ways to do so.

This position will report to the Head of Communications and is ideally based out of either New York, San Francisco, or Miami – but is open to remote.

If this sounds like you, we’d love to talk!

What You’ll Do

• Expand our reach into new customer segments
• Collaborate with the Go-to-Market team to develop playbooks for key industries beyond the tech sector.
• Architect and execute vertical communications strategies that resonate with identified industries.
• Develop a compelling customer storytelling program in partnership with the Customer and Content Marketing teams.
• Identify and test new channels and programs with Sales and Marketing to build meaningful customer connections.
• Elevate Ramp’s economics program
• Lead communications for Ramp’s economics program, working directly with Ara Kharazian, Ramp’s Economist, to identify market trends where Ramp can provide unique insights.
• Drive visibility for Ramp’s Economics Lab with a particular focus on earned and social media.
• Partner with our social, content, growth, and influencer teams to create a powerful flywheel that expands the reach of our data insights.
• Strengthen Communications team operations
• Act as the de facto COO of the Comms team. You won’t just spot operational bottlenecks – you’ll design and implement solutions to fix them. E.g., playbooks, structures, measurement systems, etc.
  

What You Need

• 8+ years experience in communications or related fields.
• Succinct writing skills that infuse personality and humanity (i.e., you write like people talk).
• Natural ability to build relationships with people and companies outside the tech ecosystem.
• Proven track record developing platforms for executives on industry-relevant topics beyond product (e.g., economics insights, market trends).
• Extreme operational excellence.
• GSD attitude.
