Padlet is building software for a good education. A good education is one that inspires curiosity, creativity, and community. Our software enables that through visual content creation and collaboration in millions of classrooms worldwide.
We can all agree that Christianity is a great product. It's 2000 years old and brings spiritual fulfillment to over 2 billion people worldwide. But it wasn't Jesus who took Christianity to the masses. It took someone like St Paul to make it a thing. His thirteen letters (tailored, by the way, to each recipient) were instrumental in forming the Christian identity and early Christian communities.
Moral of this (slightly irreverent) story? Marketing is important, no matter how good a product is. People don't just see a product and magically know how to use it to make their life better. Someone needs to teach them.
We are looking for an exceptional marketer to spread the gospel of Padlet. This is an in-person role in San Francisco.
Responsibilities
Write blog posts, flyers, and other marketing materials to inform users about our latest and greatest launches.
Create how-to videos to show how best to use our products.
Manage social media accounts and communities so people don't think we are anti-social (we are; we just don't want people to think we are.)
We're a small team. People wear many hats. We may ask you to write non-marketing stuff. E.g. it would have been nice to have had some help writing this job description.
Qualifications
Be high integrity.
Have a sense of duty.
Respect people.
Be exceptional at everything the job requires you to do.
Bonus: have a good sense of humor.
