Requirements
• 5–8+ years in communications, with meaningful time spent in-house at a high-growth consumer tech or marketplace company, not just agency-side • You've been an early or founding comms hire before, and you know what it feels like to build a function with no playbook • Strong media instincts: you know what makes a story, and you know which journalists care about which angles • A natural narrative architect: you can take a complex business and turn it into a crisp, compelling story that lands with press, partners, and the public • Comfortable owning corporate, consumer, and media communications sometimes all in the same week • Experience working closely with founders and senior leadership, not just executing briefs handed to you • Background in marketplaces, creator economy, fashion, streetwear, or consumer communities • Experience supporting a company through a major capital raise, geographic expansion, or product category launch • Agency roots that gave you broad exposure across consumer tech clients early in your career • Track record of using data or unique platform insights to drive earned media
Responsibilities
• Own and shape Tilt's corporate narrative: from how we talk about our mission to how we announce major milestones like fundraises, market expansions, and product launches • Build Tilt's communications function from the ground up: media strategy, press relationships, messaging architecture, and crisis playbooks • Develop and tell seller stories: Tilt's greatest asset is the people building businesses on our platform, and you'll bring those stories to life for press, investors, and the broader public • Partner with leadership on executive communications, including CEO positioning, investor messaging, and public appearances • Build a data storytelling capability that uses Tilt's unique marketplace insights to position us as a voice on the future of commerce, Gen Z spending, and the creator economy • Own our trade and category communications, making Tilt the name that sneaker, trading card, vintage and streetwear press thinks of first • Act as a strategic partner to our categories, product, and growth teams ensuring comms is integrated upstream, not bolted on at the end
Benefits
• You'll own Tilt's story from day one — this is a blank canvas, not a bureaucracy • You'll work directly with leadership and have a seat at the table when big decisions get made • You'll be joining a mission-driven team backed by world-class investors • You'll help redefine how millions of people shop, sell, and connect online • Location: On-site (5 days a week from London, King's Cross office) • 29 days off, plus UK bank holidays • Your birthday off, no questions asked • Share options to become a true stakeholder in our success • 3% pension contribution from Month 2 (auto-enrolment) • MacBook and tech budget to get you set up your way • Gym membership • Free Deliveroo if you're working late
