Special Projects Lead

ABOUT ROLR

ROLR is building a prediction markets platform delivering the frontier of trading on sports, culture, economics, AI, commodities, and geopolitics. You'll be on a nimble startup-like team within a public company. A large volume of time-sensitive, external-facing, cross-departmental projects that drive value across Product, Brand, Community, and Investor Relations can go unexecuted because of their complexity and time commitment. We're looking for an exceptional generalist who works across brand, marketing, community, social, and events.

You're familiar with leveraging AI workflows to take projects end to end, and you have the emotional intelligence and interpersonal skills to work across departments to get the job done. You're resourceful, a fast learner, and comfortable taking ownership.

We're looking for a Special Projects Lead: an operational growth generalist with a creative marketing, design, and product background. You'll be AI-native, able to create brand assets, ship updates to marketing surfaces, and build simple app features that drive social and community loops. You'll take cross-departmental projects from ideation to pitching the business case, securing budget, and execution, either independently or by coordinating across departments.

As we build out our marketing and community functions, this role will take ownership of projects that sit between established functions or would otherwise consume significant senior leadership time.

This is a senior individual-contributor role with leadership-level exposure.

You’ll report to the Chief Product Officer with a dotted line to the Chief Marketing Officer, working closely with Brand Marketing, Design, Product, and Engineering leaders.

The boundary with our Social Media Manager is clear: they own the channels, editorial calendar, and daily content. You'll own time-boxed campaigns, community programs, events, and other cross-functional projects, feeding relevant launch content through the social calendar.
