Director of Marketing

COMPANY OVERVIEW

Every year, hundreds of thousands of businesses shut down, yet the process remains messy, expensive, and underserved. At SimpleClosure, our mission is to make business shutdowns seamless, compliant, and stress free, because closing a company shouldn’t feel harder than starting one.

We recently raised our $15 million Series A and were named one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies of 2025. Backed by top investors and trusted by hundreds of startups, we’re rapidly establishing ourselves as the technology leader in this space. Join us and make an outsized impact as we create innovative solutions for businesses, their teams, and their stakeholders.

JOB OVERVIEW

We’re hiring a Director of Marketing to own and operate the full marketing engine at SimpleClosure. This is a senior, execution-heavy leadership role for someone who thrives in structure, clarity, and accountability.

You will translate company strategy into repeatable marketing systems that drive predictable, measurable growth. This is not a brand-only or vision-only role, it is a systems-oriented, performance-accountable role with full ownership of how marketing operates day to day, from people and process to performance and planning.

Marketing at SimpleClosure is central to our ability to deliver predictable, durable growth. The Director of Marketing will play a critical role in turning momentum into a system, and ensuring the company is positioned to compound growth over time.

You’ll report to the Head of GTM and Revenue.
