Head of Comms

Whop•Brooklyn, NY

About The Position

As Head of Comms, you’ll work closely with the Chief of Strategy to distribute announcements about Whop across traditional media, social media, and alternative surfaces, making Whop’s product, mission, and brand legible to the world. You’ll develop communications strategies, shape and amplify stories, lead communications plans for company moments, manage media relations, and build executive thought leadership. The role calls for someone who can work through quick context shifts and deadlines and see work through from start to finish. Whop is a technology company on a mission to deliver everyone a sustainable income. It describes itself as a lean team of ex-founders and AI-native builders who have pioneered internet markets for a decade or longer. Whop connects buyers and sellers in emerging internet markets—including content distribution, data-labeling, and AI arbitrage—as well as traditional markets such as education, products, services, and software. The team works long hours but measures success by quality of output rather than hours worked. Team members’ work directly impacts Whop’s brand, product, and culture. The team has backgrounds across writing, music, film, fashion, advertising, and new media, and seeks people willing to get hands-on.
