About the role

  • It's also the leading edge of the most important social shift of the next fifty years: people working out their relationship with AI, and what that does to their relationships with each other.
  • One is Tolan itself, the product and the difference it makes in the lives of the people it serves.
  • The making comes first; earned media amplifies it.

Responsibilities

  • Make our own media (the core of the job)
  • Make the media we own: original video, podcasts, and editorial that tell Tolan's story in our voice, and build the channels that carry it.
  • Own the metrics that come with it: audience growth, engagement, and the work of turning attention into love for the product.
  • Drive earned media
  • You very likely have your own platform: a Substack, a YouTube channel, a podcast, a following on whatever platform is yours.
  • It's not a strict requirement, but it's close - if you've grown an audience of your own, even a small one, we want to talk to you.

Requirements

  • If you're exceptional and you can show it, this role is yours.

Nice to have

  • You move easily between owned and earned, but owned is where you're happiest.
  • You're senior enough to set the strategy and hands-on enough to shoot, write, and ship it yourself.
  • Open to NY or LA for exceptional candidates.

Compensation

  • competitive salary and meaningful equity.
  • Reports to: CEO.

Benefits

  • Build relationships with journalists, editors, and producers across lifestyle, culture, tech, mental health, and entertainment, landing everything from a New York Times feature to a Drew Barrymore segment.
  • Our research shows Tolan measurably reducing users' anxiety and improving their wellbeing - make the Tolan Research Team a voice the press trusts on where AI helps and where it hurts.
