Senior Product Marketing Manager

About the Company

At Scribd (pronounced "scribbed"), our mission is to spark human curiosity. Join our team as we create a world of stories and knowledge, democratize the exchange of ideas and information, and empower collective expertise through our four products:
Everand, Scribd, Slideshare, and Fable.

We support a culture where our employees can be real and be bold; where we debate and commit as we embrace plot twists; and where every employee is empowered to take action as we prioritize the customer. We believe in balancing individual flexibility and community connections. Our flexible work benefit, Scribd Flex, allows employees to choose a daily work style that suits their needs while prioritizing intentional in‑person moments for collaboration, culture, and connection.

Occasional in‑person attendance is required for all employees, regardless of location.

We look for people who embody “GRIT” – passion and perseverance toward long‑term goals. We expect candidates to demonstrate the ability to set and achieve Goals, Results, Innovation, and Team impact.
