Who We Are
Sometimes, a group of people come together and create something amazing. They don’t let egos get in the way. They don’t settle for the status quo, and they don’t complain when things get tough. Instead, they see a common vision for the future and each person makes an unspoken commitment to building that future together. That’s the culture, the moxie, and the story of Aspida.
Our business focuses on annuities and life insurance. At first, it might not sound flashy, but that’s why we’re doing things differently than everyone else in our industry. We’re dedicated to developing data-driven tech solutions, providing amazing customer experiences, and applying an entrepreneurial spirit to everything we do. Our work ethic is built on three main tenets: Get $#! Done, Do It with Moxie, and Have Fun. If this sounds like the place for you, read on, and then apply at aspida.com/careers.
What We Are Looking For
The Director of Corporate Communications will shape and elevate Aspida’s voice – interally and externally – as we continue to build a modern, fast-growing insurance platform. You’ll own the corporate narrative, ensuring Aspida’s story is clear, compelling, and consistently told across channels, audiences, and moments that matter. An obsession with detail, consistency, and clarity will make you stand out.
Reporting to the Head of Marketing, you will lead corporate messaging, media relations, executive communications, and thought leadership, ensuring consistent messaging and brand storytelling. These efforts will also extend to oversight of internal communications and assisting with product messaging from a brand and storytelling standpoint. This is a hands-on leadership role for a strategic communicator who can think big, move fast, and execute with precision.
What You Will Do
Not sure if you meet every qualification? We still encourage you to apply! We value inclusivity, welcoming candidates from diverse backgrounds, including non-traditional paths. Unique experiences enrich our team, and the willingness to dream big makes you an exceptional candidate!
