About Base
Base is America’s next-generation power company. We’re rebuilding the foundation of modern civilization–electricity–by deploying a vast network of distributed batteries that is transforming today’s fragile, centralized grid into a resilient and abundant system. We are engineers, operators, and creatives solving some of the most complex, interdisciplinary challenges of our time.
About The Role
We’re hiring a Creative Lead on the Marketing team to bring Base Power’s brand to life. This is not a comms or channel management role. This person sets creative direction for how Base shows up in the world: from major campaigns to everyday touchpoints, and is accountable for whether the work actually lands.
You’ll own creative marketing initiatives: from concept through to execution and measurement. You’ll work closely with design, performance, and data teams to make sure our marketing feels distinctive, sharp, and grounded in what customers actually care about.
