The Mission

We are looking for a curious architect of growth to lead our media strategy across North America and LATAM. This isn't a set and forget role. We need a Senior Strategist who views media as a laboratory. You will be the bridge between high‑level business objectives and the tactical execution that captures the attention of complex Buying Groups in the cybersecurity space.
