A note about the team:
Yes, Zero is building something awesome. But Zero’s marketing team is building something really rare. Maybe it’s the spark of being in the spread-thin trenches together, or the in-person team bonding and strategizing that we get to do across the globe. Maybe it’s the excitement of getting to scale our team in a thoughtful way that gets us closer and closer to a big win. Whatever it is, we’re excited to have this new team member join us, and we urge you to apply even if you don’t feel you tick all the boxes above. The hiring manager of this role is passionate about mentoring strong content manager and writer with SEO chops.
