About The Position

About Slash Slash is building the future of business banking, one industry at a time. We believe businesses deserve financial infrastructure tailored to how they operate, not generic banking products retrofitted with software. We’re creating a new category of business banking that combines the reliability of traditional banking (high yields, competitive rewards, and uncompromising security) with industry-specific software, stablecoins, and AI-native workflows. Our goal is simple: make businesses more efficient, more competitive, and more profitable. Founded in 2021, Slash is one of the fastest-growing fintech companies in the world. We power billions in annual transaction volume across a wide range of industries — from internet-native founders to traditional operators. We’ve raised over $60M from leading investors including Menlo Ventures, NEA, Y Combinator, Goodwater Capital, Stanford University, and founders of companies like Tinder and Plaid. Our team brings together fintech operators from Cash App, Brex, and Finix, alongside founders who have built and scaled their own businesses. We’re headquartered in San Francisco (with another office in New York City) and operate with a strong in-person culture. About the Role We’re hiring a Head of YouTube to build and own a category-defining content engine at Slash. This is not a traditional social media role. You’ll own YouTube end-to-end – from strategy and content to distribution and performance – with the goal of making Slash one of the most trusted and widely consumed financial brands on the internet. You’ll work directly with the founder and leadership team to translate complex financial concepts into content that millions of people want to watch. YouTube is the anchor, but your mandate extends across all content channels, helping define how Slash shows up across the internet. This is a zero-to-one role with full ownership. You’ll define the playbook, build the system, and scale it.
