Washington, United States Upside Full time

Meet Upside:

We created Upside to transform brick-and-mortar commerce. Our technology uses the sophistication of online retail-profit measurement, attribution, and incrementality-to provide users with more value on their everyday purchases and brick-and-mortar businesses with new, profitable customers. We've helped millions of users earn 2 to 3 times more cashback than any other product, and hundreds of thousands of brick-and-mortar businesses earn measurable profit. Billions of dollars in commerce run through the Upside platform every year, and that value goes directly back to our retailer partners, the consumers they serve, and important sustainability initiatives.

The Impact You'll Make:

Identify current communication needs and create plans to solve for our gaps

Evolve our communications model to better scale with our growing business

Analyze communication efforts, gather insights, and suggest improvements

Stay updated on trends, emerging technologies, and best practices

What You Should Have:

Bachelor's degree in Communications, Journalism or equivalent experience

8+ years of experience working in venture-backed, fast-paced scaling companies, preferably in tech.

Experience influencing and informing C-Suite executives.

Experience with building cross-functional relationships across all departments and levels of an organization.

Experience working in a highly matrixed organization with shifting priorities and ambiguity.

Experience managing multiple strategic priorities simultaneously and independently.

Experience developing strategic communications plans and implementing them across crisis management, change management, and internal communications.

Strategic and creative thinking, with the skills to distill complex content into clear, concise, and engaging communications, and able to write with speed and accuracy.
