Better Together
VP of Marketing and Communications
Better Together, Orlando, Florida, us, 32885
Would it excite you to get a chance to be part of Jeff Bezos’ leadership team at Amazon or Reed Hastings’ team at Netflix in the very early days, when their growth was starting to skyrocket, and they had to build a plane while flying it? It’s no overstatement to say that’s the opportunity presented here. Better Together is one of the fastest growing nonprofits in America and will quickly be in the top 5% in both revenue and impact.Just like it was at Amazon and Netflix, that kind of growth is exciting, challenging, messy and incredibly rewarding. But it’s not for everyone. This is a unique opportunity for someone who will thrive in a highly entrepreneurial environment where each day is different, the CEO has no lack of great ideas, flexibility is as necessary as oxygen, and yet where the details must be right.The VP of Marketing and Communications will need to build systems that don’t exist and create unique marketing tools and messaging that will create more engagement and quick growth with integrity, accuracy, and transparency.But along with the talent to do these well, you need to love the mission of Better Together. Helping keep families intact and connecting people with life-changing jobs is not simple. It’s messy. Love, empathy, and patience are a necessity. You’ll need to understand the front lines in order to build the supply lines.This is not just a job. It’s a calling. For the right person, it could be the chance of a lifetime.CULTURE AND FIT The people who consistently succeed at Better Together are those whose actions and behavior reflect our five core values. If you adhere to these values and answer “yes” to each of these questions, you may be a fit.Owner’s Mindset:
You are invested in the outcomes of our mission.
Are you a self-starter who is able to take initiative in order to complete a task?Do you often seek opportunities for professional growth?
Choosing Gratitude:
There are many things in life that can make us upset. Every day we have a choice to either be negative or give thanks.
Do you often go out of your way to help others?Have you written a thank-you card in the last 30 days?Are you a positive person who is more focused on opportunities instead of obstacles?
Love Others:
We aim to love others like Christ loves us. Our hope is that our lives would be filled and overflowing with love, so that we can make a difference in this world.
Do people often say you are a good listener?Do you make decisions based on what’s best for others over yourself?Do you often find yourself looking for ways to make others feel empowered, important and appreciated?
Partnership-Oriented:
Internal and external relationships are not transactional. That starts with our team members and the perspective that we need the rest of the team to succeed in order to win personally.
Are you comfortable creating your own structure for work, such as setting work hours, your own priorities, and creating clarity and a work plan from a broad goal?Do you tend to be the one who initiates conversations with colleagues, rather than waiting for them to come to you?
The Sky is the Limit:
We have a big vision at Better Together. No one on our team is counting hours or widgets. We are here to get results, and sometimes that will require going the extra mile or doing a job that isn’t technically ours.
Do you often set yourself audacious goals?Do you wholeheartedly agree with our principles, which include that people’s lives are made better through work and that we can and will end the foster care crisis?
