Storyteller (San Francisco)
Best Friend Finance · San Francisco · $10,000–$15,000/month (stated in the posting)
We're looking for a Head of Social Media who will own Reserve's social presence and help shape the narrative of the company as we build it.
This role is equal parts social media lead and narrative operator. You'll be responsible for running and growing our channels, and you'll work closely with the founders and team to identify the stories worth telling, develop them into ongoing narratives, and figure out how we tell them over time.
We're building around two connected ideas: creating more economic opportunity for a new generation of people earning, building, and creating online, and rethinking what money itself can be. You'll help bring these stories to life while documenting the people, ideas, and work behind Reserve and what it actually looks like to build the company.
We want someone who can recognize a story while it's happening and turn it into something people want to follow.
About Us
Our purpose is to increase economic opportunity and make better money. We’re doing that through two connected parts that together make up the Reserve project.
Economic Opportunity
UGLYCASH is a financial services app designed around the needs of people earning money on the internet: creators, remote workers, freelancers, and entrepreneurs whose banks weren’t built for how they earn.
We’re starting in Latin America. Over the last 22 months, UGLYCASH has reached $5M+ in revenue run rate and 32,000+ monthly active customers.
Better Money
What happens to that money after you earn it matters too.
Cash, money in a bank account, and payment stablecoins each work differently. We believe the money people use should do more than move from one place to another. It should also give people a better way to save and grow what they earn.
That’s why we’re continuing to improve the version of money UGLYCASH customers already use, with the long term goal of giving more people access to better options for their money.
