ABOUT BARK 

 

Here at BARK, we love dogs and their people. We're looking to make all dogs happy throughout the entire world (we're not kidding). Think Disney for dogs -- we make magic for dogs and their people through our products, events, and experiences. 
Our ambition level is high, the opportunity is huge, and our love for dogs is through the roof! We launched in 2011 with BarkBox, a monthly-themed subscription of all-natural treats and clever toys. Since then, we've shipped more than 70 million toys and treats to the dogs across the world and use all of that direct customer feedback to inform new initiatives and ways to make magic between dogs and their people. We've since expanded into other offerings as well, as we aim to become THE Dog Company for every family with a four-legged, belly-scratch-loving, interspecies family member.

 

THE TEAM 

 

At BARK, the Brand Marketing team is behind pretty much everything you see, squeak, sniff, or scroll. We dream up the look, feel, and voice of the brand, lead the charge on new product ideas and category shake-ups, and bring it all to life across every channel - from retail shelves to Instagram feeds. We also run PR and organic social, making sure the world hears (and howls for) what we're up to. In short: we turn big ideas into dog-happy realities and make sure BARK shows up with heart, humor, and a tail wag everywhere we go.

 

WHO WE'RE SNIFFING FOR 

 

We're sniffing for a creative, results-driven marketer with a passion for brand storytelling and data-backed decisions. You love collaborating across teams, juggling multiple priorities, and turning insights into meaningful campaigns that get tails thumping. You take initiative, but you're humble, curious, and always looking for ways to make things better-for dogs and their humans. You'll thrive in our fast-paced, ever-evolving pack if you're obsessed with good ideas, inspired by measurable impact, and, of course, if you must love dogs.
