What are the responsibilities and job description for the Director Marketing Communications position at Metric Bio?
Director of Marketing Communications
Location: Boston, MA or Austin, TX (On-site)
I'm partnering with a well-funded, AI-native TechBio company that's redefining how artificial intelligence is applied to biology. Backed by leading venture investors and world-renowned scientific leaders, the company is entering an exciting phase of growth and is looking for a
Director of Marketing Communications to help build a category-defining brand.
The Opportunity
This is not a traditional demand generation role.
You'll work closely with the Chief Marketing Officer to shape the company's voice, elevate its brand, and ensure every interaction - from major announcements and events to web, PR, executive communications and social media - reflects the ambition of the business.
This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys building brands from the ground up and turning complex science into compelling stories.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead day-to-day marketing communications across PR, web, social media, events and executive communications.
- Build and execute a cohesive corporate narrative across all channels.
- Drive high-profile company announcements, partnerships, funding news and strategic milestones.
- Manage and coordinate external PR, creative, web and marketing agencies.
- Plan and deliver premium events, symposiums and conference activations.
- Maintain a consistent, high-quality brand presence across every customer and stakeholder touchpoint.
- Oversee creative assets, messaging and content to ensure exceptional quality and consistency.
- Establish marketing processes and operating rhythms to keep multiple workstreams aligned.
What We're Looking For
- Director-level experience in Marketing Communications, Corporate Communications or Brand Marketing.
- Experience building brands within AI, biotech, life sciences, deep tech or another frontier technology sector.
- Strong background in corporate storytelling, executive communications and media relations.
- Demonstrated success managing agencies and delivering high-quality creative campaigns.
- Experience leading major corporate announcements, events and reputation-building initiatives.
- Exceptional writing, messaging and creative judgement.
- Ability to translate complex scientific or technical concepts into clear, engaging communications.
Why Join?
- Join a venture-backed company at the forefront of AI and biotechnology.
- Work alongside an exceptional leadership team of scientists, entrepreneurs and AI experts.
- Play a pivotal role in shaping a globally recognised brand from an early stage.
- Competitive salary, equity package and significant opportunities for career growth.
If you're passionate about building world-class brands in frontier science and want to help define the narrative of a rapidly scaling TechBio company, I'd love to hear from you.
