Who we are

Yubo is the Social Discovery app to make new friends and hang out online. By eliminating likes and follows, we empower our users to create genuine connections and show up as their true selves.

We've pioneered a new way for Gen Z to socialize online, and with millions of active users, our goal is to redefine how we connect today and tomorrow.

Our team is international, multicultural and deeply committed to its mission. As the leading platform to socialize online, we have a special responsibility to build a safe digital space for our community. Safety is embedded in our DNA, and our proactive approach focuses on user protection, support, and education. We also work closely with the broader technology industry to share our knowledge and NGOs create industry-leading child protection standards.

Join us in this exciting journey and help us shape the future of social interactions!

About this role

We're seeking a Brand marketing leader to define and contribute to build our brand identity across product, marketing, and design.

This is a hybrid strategy-creative role for someone fluent in brand storytelling, cultural insight, and design thinking, with the ability to operationalize that brand across every surface of the company.

Yubo is coming up on its 10 year anniversary, and over that time this small but mighty team has become a much beloved way for Gen Z to meet new people. The team has delivered a magical user experience, but the brand has really been under the radar until now. Yubo is a blend of what the team makes (the product) and how we make our users feel (the brand). This brand leadership opportunity is about bringing the Yubo community together & growing it.

We are looking for a special brand leader who is open to a Paris move (tough right?), or at least for time zone and team culture perspectives, is based on the US East Coast.

The founder-led executive team are as passionate as ever about their mission, and this role is a critical piece in taking Yubo to the next level.
