The elevator pitch
Were hunting for an iconic Director of Public Relations to grow a brand that redefines an industry and advantages homebuyers. This leader will be a creative problem solver who cares little about conventions; you are driven to be a truth teller who drives exceptional results and great leaps forward. Asking hard questions, taking risks, and getting big things done is the purpose. Youll be partnering closely with our VP marketing and CEO who fancy themselves communications savants (good luck with those two :-).
What You'll Do:
- Youll lead our earned media strategycrafting the story of a company that wants to fight for customers by driving honesty and transparency in home finance, working closely with our CEO and executive thought leaders.
- Youll co-create big campaigns with our creative and marketing team, finding smart and provocative ways to turn Tomo Mortgage into a household name.
- Youll run media relationsbuilding on your exciting relationships with journalists and thought leaders, ensuring that were connecting with the right people to expand our influence.
- Budgets and deadlines? Youve got it under control.
What Makes You a Great Fit:
- 10+ years of PR experience where youve owned both consumer-focused and corporate-focused PR campaigns, wrangled creative teams, and progressed the influence of innovative brands with a lot of independence and accountability.
- Project management chopsyoure a pro at juggling multiple priorities without breaking a sweat, and know how to think through all the critical details of a big moment (timing, targets, messaging, risk mitigation, influencers, etc.)
- Mortgage, real estate or financial services industry experience is ideal, as is experience with early stage startups.
- You are meticulous in planning and execution, have a command presence and have a natural sense of urgency.
Why Youll Love It Here:

Were committed to doing whats right for people, advocating for honesty and transparency, and creating a future where everyone can buy a home.
- The early adopters know Tomo right now, but thats about to change. Weve got the financial backing, best-in-the-business team, and AI driven platform to be a big deal in just a few years.
- Weve got guts and none of the bloated bureaucratic blockersbig audacious ideas get the love and support they need.
- Competitive salary, sweet benefits, and opportunities to grow with us.
