About The Position

Incident IQ is looking for a Director of Corporate Marketing to build and lead the corporate marketing function from the ground up. This is a newly created role reporting directly to the Chief Marketing Officer and sits at the intersection of brand, communications and culture. The right person is a sharp storyteller, a skilled cross-functional partner and someone who understands that how a company communicates internally is just as important as how it shows up externally. This role will work closely with the CMO and will have the support of the broader marketing team and key partners across the business to bring programs to life.

Requirements

8 to 12 years of experience in corporate communications, corporate marketing or a related function, ideally in B2B SaaS or a mission-driven organization, with a proven track record of building or leading a corporate marketing or communications function.
You are a strategic communicator who knows how to shape a company narrative, build executive presence and show up as a trusted partner to senior leadership. You are equally comfortable crafting a press release, preparing a CEO for a keynote and developing an internal communications strategy from scratch.
Exceptional written and verbal communication skills are a must, as is the ability to build strong cross-functional relationships and influence without authority across a fast-moving organization.
Experience partnering closely with a CEO or executive leadership team on communications and positioning is strongly preferred.
You know how to lead through ambiguity, set priorities across competing demands and build programs that scale. You thrive with autonomy, work well without a lot of structure and know how to tap the right people across the business to get things done.
