Job Description
Role Overview

We're looking for a dynamic, social-first, strategic media leader who is excited to transform ParentsTogether’s mission into multi-format, cross-platform content that reaches parents at scale. The ideal candidate is entrepreneurial with a growth mindset, having equal strengths in storytelling and content production, along with the operational rigor to manage high-performing teams.

What You Will Do

The Managing Director of Impact Media will combine a passion for kids and families with the expertise to lead a team in creating and distributing compelling content that is topical and culturally fluent. This role will report to the Executive Director, and work closely with the CEO of the for-profit ParentsTogether Holdings (anchored by the Motherly brand).

Why It Might Be a Fit

You'll be a great fit if you have built something, are fluent in modern digital media, have an experimental, iterative mindset, are tech-forward, or an early adopter, are a translator of vision into execution, have meaningful people management and hiring experience, are skilled at pointing multiple teams in the same direction, believe deeply in the breakthrough thesis that issue-driven content can reach non-political, non-news-consuming parents, and thrive in environments that are evolving.

Requirements

  • Hands-on leadership experience in a digital media operation
  • Fluency in modern digital media
  • Experimental, iterative mindset
  • Tech-forward or early adopter
  • Meaningful people management and hiring experience
  • Skilled at pointing multiple teams in the same direction

Benefits

  • Health insurance (with cost-share for dependents)
  • Three weeks of vacation (plus holidays and the last week of the calendar year off)
  • Paid family and sick leave
  • Retirement match after four months on staff
  • FSA account
