Marketing and Communications Manager
Job Description
Communications
Draft and ship clear, on-brand external communications - announcements, blog posts, X/Twitter threads, newsletters, partner statements, and executive social copy.
Develop and maintain our messaging library: positioning, talking points, FAQs, and crisis-response language that the team can pull from on demand.
Partner with engineering, product, and ecosystem leads to translate technical milestones (consensus upgrades, mainnet progress, integrations) into stories normal humans can follow.
Own the editorial calendar and keep launches, partner reveals, and ecosystem updates from colliding.
PR & Media Relations
Build and maintain relationships with reporters across crypto and fintech (CoinDesk, The Block, Blockworks, Decrypt, DL News, Fortune Crypto, Bloomberg, WSJ, Axios, TechCrunch, etc.).
Pitch stories, source quotes, and broker on-the-record and on-background conversations between our leadership and the press.
Run press cycles end-to-end for fundraises, partnerships, mainnet milestones, and ecosystem launches — from briefing docs to embargo coordination to follow-up coverage.
Track coverage and sentiment, brief leadership on what’s landing and what’s not, and adjust our approach in real time.
Manage relationships with any external PR partners and make sure they’re a force multiplier, not overhead.
Events
Own our presence at the conferences and summits that matter — Consensus, Token2049 (Singapore & Dubai), ETHDenver, Permissionless, Mainnet, Devconnect, Money20/20, DAS, and the long tail of regional and invite-only gatherings.
Run events end-to-end: speaking submissions, sponsorship decisions, booth and activation logistics, side events, dinners, and partner meetups.
Manage on-the-ground execution — vendors, swag, run-of-show, briefing books for our speakers, and post-event follow-up so the relationships actually get worked.
Own the events budget and report back on what’s producing pipeline, partnerships, hires, and earned media - and what isn’t.
Brand & Marketing
Help shape and protect the Move Industries brand voice across every surface.
Partner with design and growth on launch campaigns, landing pages, and ecosystem co-marketing.
Spot opportunities - trending narratives, founder moments, community wins - and turn them into momentum for the company and the People’s Chain.
What We’re Looking For
2–4 years of experience in communications, PR, events, or marketing - ideally at a crypto, fintech, or fast-moving tech startup, or at an agency serving them.
Clear familiarity with the major fintech and crypto event circuit and a point of view on which ones are worth showing up for.
relationships with reporters covering crypto, fintech, or emerging tech - you can pitch a story without a warm intro.
Strong, fast writing. You can take a dense technical update and turn it into something a reporter, partner, or community member will actually read.
Operator instincts. You’re organized, you ship, and you don’t need a six-week runway to pull off a launch or an event.
Comfort with the pace and ambiguity of an early-stage company — priorities shift, news breaks, and you can re-plan a week without losing the plot.
Genuine interest in crypto and where Move and Movement fit in the broader Layer 1 landscape. You don’t need to be a protocol engineer, but you should care about the space.
Nice to Have
Direct experience launching or marketing a Layer 1, Layer 2, DeFi protocol, or fintech product.
Existing presence on Crypto Twitter / X and a sense for how narratives move there.
Experience running founder or executive social, ghostwriting threads, or coaching speakers.
Background working with developer or builder communities (hackathons, grant programs, ecosystem events).
