About the role

The VP, Brand & Communications will own Yondr's brand platform, voice, and external communications across the full business and build the creative, content, and event systems needed to bring that brand to life consistently at scale.

Responsibilities

  • Own Yondr’s brand platform, positioning, and voice across Education, Artist Relations, and Commercial, building the connective tissue that makes the brand read as one story rather than three.
  • Own company-wide communications: press and media relations, executive communications, and Yondr’s public point of view on presence, attention, and digital wellbeing.
  • Personally write and edit the brand’s highest-stakes copy, setting the standard for everything else across web, campaigns, social, and executive communications.
  • Set and evolve brand guidelines, voice-and-tone standards, and creative systems that scale as the business grows.
  • Create and direct content across the business, including campaigns, brand film, photography, copy, and design, working hands-on alongside internal creatives, agencies, and freelance talent rather than briefing from a distance.
  • Own social and web presence end to end, from strategy and editorial calendar to writing, shooting, and posting content personally when it counts.
  • Set and protect the creative quality bar; review and approve brand-facing work from internal teams, agencies, and freelancers before it ships.
  • Own the brand experience at live touchpoints, including concerts and festivals, trade shows, school and district events, and partner activations, showing up on-site to run it, not just plan it.
  • Partner with Sales, Education, and Artist Relations to design and build event and trade show presence (booth, materials, signage, on-site experience) that’s consistent with brand standards and built to convert.
  • Identify and shape moments (launches, artist partnerships, cultural tie-ins) that give the brand outsized visibility relative to spend.
  • Build and lead a small internal team (creative, content/social) and manage a roster of external agencies, freelancers, and production partners, staying close enough to the work to jump in when needed.
  • Own the brand and communications budget; make build-vs-buy calls on internal hires vs. agency/freelance support.
  • Serve as a key member of the Marketing Leadership Team, partnering with the SVP of Marketing to bring brand and market perspective into broader company strategy.
  • Act as internal brand guardian across Marketing, Sales, Product, and Education, ensuring brand and message discipline without slowing teams down.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Communications, Journalism, or a related field, or equivalent combination of education and experience.
  • 10 to 15+ years in brand, communications, or creative leadership roles, including experience running brand and/or communications for a full business, not just a single product line or campaign.
  • Direct experience leading and growing a team, and managing agency/freelance partners at scale.
  • Currently hands-on in the work: actively writing, art-directing, or shaping creative in the last one to two years, not solely managing others who do it.
  • A portfolio or body of work demonstrating brand-building, including brand platforms, rebrands, or launches led end to end, with recent samples personally authored or art-directed by the candidate.
  • Experience in lifestyle, consumer, live entertainment/events, or culture-facing brands is strongly preferred; experience in Education markets or artist/label/venue relationships is a meaningful plus.
