Brand and Content Lead

Comun • New York, NY

1d • Hybrid

About The Position

At Común, brand is trust. We serve a community that has been historically underserved by financial institutions, which means our message must be clear, credible, human, and consistent. We are seeking a Brand & Content Lead to own that message and ensure it lands. This role is ideal for a creative-first leader — someone who starts with craft, taste, and storytelling, and can translate those instincts into a cohesive brand strategy that moves real business metrics. Reporting to the Head of Growth, you’ll have a key position of both formal and informal influence within the organization. You will manage a team of both full time and fractional talent, as well as resources across third-party organizations and vendors as required to ensure quality content deliverables. You will also work closely with Product and Operations to ensure message consistency across the full organization – from our paid ads all the way through our users’ interactions with the product and even our interactions with customer service. This role can be based in either New York or Mexico City, with US Eastern Time working hours.

Requirements

• Proven experience designing brand health measurement systems and showing results against it
• Experience managing full-time talent
• Experience managing creative processes through third parties like agencies, creators, or brokers
• Proven track record implementing multi-channel creative strategies across brand, performance, lifecycle, web, and social
• Deep experience creating high-quality still, video and text formats fully leveraging AI tools
• Written and spoken fluency in both English and Spanish
• Proven cultural competencies around our core user – a Latin American immigrant in the US
• 6+ years of experience in content creation and management (2+ years in management)
• Ability to work US East Coast hours defaulting to a US-based holiday schedule

Nice To Haves

• Creative-First: You come from a creative background — content, brand, design, or storytelling — and care deeply about craft, taste, and detail. You know what “good” looks like and can articulate why.

• Collaborative Builder. You work well with designers, marketers, operators, and external partners, and you raise the creative bar through thoughtful collaboration and feedback

• Pragmatic Operator: You’ve worked in small, fast-moving organizations and know how to balance perfection with momentum
• Owner: You show passion and care for your work and the company's trajectory. You set ambitious personal and professional goals, bringing energy and dedication to your role
