Ripple is hiring a
Web3 Senior Director, Brand and Corporate Strategy

Compensation: $42k - $54k estimated

Location: CA San Francisco, California, United States

Ripple is a crypto solutions company that is driving a new era in finance, doing for value what the internet did for information: enabling its instant and seamless flow around the world. We call this the Internet of Value, and in the short term its development will create powerful gains in financial efficiency, access and inclusion, using cryptocurrency as a universal asset. Long term it will launch - just as the original internet did - new industries that bring people and places closer together, and this time related to money, and every other kind of value as well: from stocks to art, scientific discoveries to commodities, votes to intellectual property, and more.

To get value to move like information moves today, we build on and support the development of one of the world’s fastest, most sustainable and reliable public blockchains. We build everything with both an inclusive vision and pragmatism, so while others are incrementally improving the digital economy through apps and technical workarounds, our team is fundamentally re-engineering the way value moves. It’s already driving new efficiencies to help businesses be more successful and diverse, helping people make the most of their money - and we’ve only begun to discover what it’s capable of doing.

With offices in San Francisco, New York, London, Mumbai, Singapore, São Paulo, Reykjavík, Washington D.C., and Dubai, we have more than 500 global employees and hundreds of customers (including some of the world’s biggest banks) in more than 40 countries and six continents.

We are seeking a passionate, creative, experienced brand strategist and creative leader to join Ripple’s fast-growing design team. In this role, you will build our brand strategy and verbal identity team, and will have accountability for brand and product positioning, brand architecture, naming, brand voice, messaging frameworks, core creative ideas, and supporting the brand design system.

You have experience setting foundational brand strategy, and then building strategic brand design systems that guide the creative development and execution of products, marketing campaigns and engagements that dramatically improve the customer experience and accelerate brand awareness for a growing tech company. You have experience with verbal identity - naming strategies, coordinating with legal counsel, and creating messaging platforms. You understand that brand strategy and business strategy support one another, and you provide the needed context to help guide important decision making.

You are a thoughtful and inspirational brand leader who excels at recruiting and developing top talent, scaling a creative brand design organization through high growth, and delivering on the ambitious goals you set for your team.

You’re a collaborator at heart and easily influence decisions at senior and executive levels. While you’re expected to come to the table with well thought-out recommendations you understand the importance of taking in new information and adjusting when it makes sense. You’re at your best in a fast-changing environment and an emerging industry with plenty of ambiguity and interesting, challenging problems to solve. You are relentlessly curious, take ownership, consistently push the envelope and challenge the status quo.

Ripple prides itself on its culture. We’re nice people. You should be too.
