    COMMUNICATIONS ASSOCIATE

    Iconic is the first NFT marketplace for the 450,000 museums, cultural institutions, and brand archives around the world. We are storytellers and inventors at heart, and we are on a mission to preserve our world's most important cultural assets with the power of the blockchain. 

    Over a third of the world's cultural institutions are at risk of closing permanently. We at Iconic want to help preserve this history with the permanence of the blockchain, while helping museums and cultural institutions realize a new stream of revenue through NFTs, to help them continue and thrive in the coming years. 

    We are looking for a Communications Associate to work in our cross-functional team and assist with not only PR & Marketing planning and execution, but also support creative development, approval routings, scheduling, customer presentations, and other business operational needs. 

    You should enjoy working in a team-based culture, possess an eye for visual design, and maintain a customer-first mentality and flawless execution

    Who is Iconic?

    We are a team of passionate and talented developers, designers, and storytellers.

    We value: 

    • Curiosity and a passion for learning new things
    • Independent thought coupled with a spirit of collaboration
    • Emotional intelligence + wicked smarts
    • Risk-taking and giving ourselves freedom to fail
    • Personal and professional growth
    • Psychological safety, diversity, and honoring each team member's own uniqueness and contribution

    We're a fully remote*, seed-stage, VC-funded startup with an existing revenue-positive product already on the market. Our investors include Cultivation Capital, Techstars, Venture South, and other angel groups.  We know that our company is only as good as our people, so we pay competitively and offer full benefits, nine paid holidays, and unlimited PTO. We're fast-paced, but believe in work-life balance, because people bring their best, most creative selves to work when they are rested and recharged.
