Growth and Marketing Lead

About us:

ZKValidator is a mission driven validator aiming to raise the profile of zero knowledge and privacy technology in the blockchain space. We currently operate across eight proof-of-stake blockchain networks each of which you will be exploring in this role as well as additional networks. Our small, diverse team consists of members with extensive and varied experience in the blockchain space and specifically in the zero knowledge community.

The Role:

You will be responsible for increasing social engagement with the ZKValidator brand and building our community. You will be working mainly on digital marketing and social media to communicate about the services we offer and about relevant developments in the blockchain space by creating innovative content. You will have the opportunity to shape our long term marketing strategy, brand identity and will also take ownership of running company events.

The role is remote but we have current team members based in Berlin, Lisbon and the UK, so applicants based in any of these cities would be able to work in person frequently. We want you to feel empowered to take charge of this position but are here to support you if you need some extra help. We are looking for someone who can start the role immediately.

Day to day responsibilities include:

• Creating internal reports to inform the leadership team of what is going on in the communities we validate on.
• Building our own ZKV community through multiple channels including discord, twitter, youtube and telegram.
• Increasing the level of meaningful social engagement and growing our online presence.
• Creating content for our community to engage with such as blog posts or videos.
• Take ownership of marketing planning and strategy for both short and long term.
• Take ownership of our social media channels: plan, keep track, post, monitor engagement and manage it.
• Research blockchain industry-related topics, trends, and news and make suggestions based upon it.
• Developing a brand strategy.
• Producing ZKV events on a regular basis - both virtual and in person events.

The ideal candidate would:

• Have marketing experience such as content creation, branding, growth marketing, events and/or design.
• Be proactive, independent and creative - you are not afraid to step outside of your comfort zone and initiate new activities.
• Be familiar with blockchain communities and the communication and social channels most used by them.
• Be an excellent written, verbal and interpersonal communicator.
• A passion for blockchain and previous experience in the space.

It would be great if you also had:

• Previous work experience in a startup environment.
• Been part of a blockchain community or initiative.
