What does a work environment look like at Clerk Chat?

Clerk Chat is a hybrid team of in-office and remote employees. Our headquarters is based in San Francisco, just three blocks south of the Embarcadero BART station, making it easy to commute and stay connected. Our in-office team appreciates being in the office five days a week because it fosters real-time collaboration, builds stronger relationships, and helps us move faster. The remote team is strategically based around the US to provide the best experience for our customers and drive impact. 
This is an exciting time to join Clerk Chat. We’re small enough that every individual has a big impact, but we’re growing fast enough that there’s tremendous room for career advancement.

Who you are:

We're looking for a Head of Marketing, someone who moves at narrative speed and feels cultural shifts before they happen, to lead Growth and Marketing at Clerk Chat. You're not just a traditional marketer; you're an entrepreneur who has built products, scaled businesses, and created your own media presence.

You understand that stories move faster than approval processes. You can spot conversations three hours before they matter and know exactly when corporate speak kills trust. You don't create viral moments - you ride them with perfect timing.

What you will do: 

• Move at "narrative speed" - respond to cultural moments within hours, not days, without waiting for approval chains
• Feel platform dynamics intuitively and spot trending conversations before competitors position themselves
• Create innovative marketing campaigns from concept through execution that generate more pipeline than quarterly ad spend
• Develop and execute multi-channel demand generation campaigns using marketing automation and CRM tools (Salesforce)
• Build an authentic brand voice that cuts through AI-generated corporate content and resonates with B2B audiences
• Monitor cultural shifts and industry trends to identify new marketing opportunities before competitors
• Leverage your own media presence to amplify Clerk Chat's message and work closely with leadership and sales teams

What you will need:

• 8+ years in growth marketing or similar roles, ideally in a B2B tech environment, with at least 3 years in a director-level role
• Proven experience driving user acquisition and scaling marketing efforts in fast-moving environments
• Has built or been foundational to building an app before, ideally in B2B space - you understand the product development process from the inside
• Has created innovative, creative marketing campaigns from end to end - not just execution, but full creative strategy and implementation
• Has owned a growth agency before, has entrepreneurial experience scaling marketing for multiple clients
• Has a strong media presence that demonstrates your ability to build an audience (YouTube channel, podcast, or significant social following)

Nice to have:

• Experience with telecom, messaging, or infrastructure-focused platforms
• Familiarity with early-stage startup environments and passion for building from scratch
• Comfort with AI, LLMs, or conversational automation tools
• Track record of viral marketing moments or trending content

Clerk Chat provides several benefits to help you bring your best self to work:

• Competitive compensation and equity packages
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Flexible vacation time (Unlimited PTO)
• lunch in the office
• 401k with 4% match

Salary Range: 

The annual base pay range for this role is: $200,000 - $230,000
