We're partnering with SimpleClosure, a $15M Series A company redefining how businesses shut down compliantly and seamlessly.
They are hiring a commercially accountable Director of Marketing to own the full marketing engine, from top-of-funnel acquisition through revenue impact.
This role is ideal for a systems-oriented operator who blends product marketing strength with performance marketing rigor. You'll lead paid acquisition, lifecycle, PR, brand, and team execution while building repeatable, measurable growth systems.
This is not a brand-only role. It is a performance-accountable, revenue-aligned leadership position.

Backed by top investors and trusted by hundreds of startups, we're rapidly establishing ourselves as the technology leader in this space. Join us and make an outsized impact as we create innovative solutions for businesses, their teams, and their stakeholders.
