Three years ago we launched the most innovative period product since the tampon: the menstrual disc. It had been nearly 80 years since the tampon was introduced, and our creation was quickly embraced by consumers everywhere as “life-changing.” Since that time we’ve rapidly grown our business. FLEX started as a digitally native brand with one product, and quickly grew to a family of period products sold in top national retailers including Target and CVS.

The combination of stellar product-market fit and our team’s obsession with our customers has delivered hockey stick growth across all of our sales channels.

Now we are looking for a Director of Acquisition to lead our performance marketing efforts and make our products mainstream. This role reports to the VP of Ecommerce and is responsible for managing all of our performance marketing efforts.
