Strong project management skills and ability to fully own strategy and content across multiple marketing channels.

Passion for creator communities and/or existing Whatnot product categories (e.g. vintage clothing, collectibles).

Experience buying and selling on online marketplaces.

Parental leave: 16 weeks paid parental leave plus one month gradual return to work (company leave allowances run concurrently with country leave requirements).
