Job Description
Ten-time Webby award-winning Freelancer.com is the world's largest freelancing and crowdsourcing marketplace. We connect millions of employers to freelancers across the globe, and every day thousands of jobs are described, bid on, negotiated, and managed through our site.
We think it is pretty cool that our marketplace hosts a real life economy, where work is undertaken in every area you can think of. From design, writing, data entry and software development; through to sales, marketing, accounting and legal services - even NASA uses us!
We have an awesome opportunity for a Communications Manager to help promote Freelancer, and have a huge impact on our business in the process. If you think about the nature of Freelancer, we have so many stories that have media potential. From the global freelance movement and the future of work itself, to individual accounts of the freelancers and entrepreneurs whose lives have been changed through our site. And that doesn’t even consider the tech/startup sector itself, especially considering the potential for further growth.
You’ll work closely with senior management and the global PR team to define communications strategies, and will then be responsible for executing those plans. Seniority is not too important to us; we are open to those looking to take ownership and accelerate their career, and if you’re a journalist looking for a change, we are interested in you too. It really all comes down to attitude and capability.
