Senior Director of Brand Strategy

Overview

Seismic is seeking an experienced Senior Director of Brand Strategy to define, evolve, and scale how our brand creates value with the world’s most important enterprises. This leader will help shape how customers understand our company’s role in solving their most complex business challenges — connecting our technology capabilities, industry expertise, and innovation agenda into a clear, differentiated market position.

This role requires a rare combination of brand strategy, enterprise storytelling, systems thinking, and deep customer domain expertise. The ideal candidate understands how large organizations make technology decisions and can translate complex platforms, products, and innovations into compelling narratives that resonate across business leaders, sales organizations, IT executives, and customer-facing teams.

The Senior Director will work closely with executive leadership, product, sales, customer success, marketing and creative teams to strengthen our position of trust with existing customers, deepen executive relationships, and expand brand relevance across new audiences and buying centers.
