You’ll bring your own perspective, ask thoughtful questions, and help shape the work from concept to execution.\nOur product serves two distinct audiences: crypto-native traders who actively share their trades on social, and sophisticated retail traders in markets like Singapore and Dubai who may be new to crypto and compare us to platforms like IBKR. You’ll create work that resonates with each audience, adapting the visual approach while keeping the Arcus brand consistent.\nThis role sits in Marketing. You’ll partner with Product Marketing on briefs, campaign direction, and launch timing, and with the Head of Social Media on day-to-day content and channel-specific formats.
