Brand Media Lead

At Webflow, we’re building the world’s leading AI-native Digital Experience Platform, and we’re doing it as a remote-first company built on trust, transparency, and a whole lot of creativity. This work takes grit, because we move fast, without ever sacrificing craft or quality. Our mission is to bring development superpowers to everyone. From entrepreneurs launching their first idea to global enterprises scaling their digital presence, we empower teams to design, launch, and optimize for the web without barriers. We believe the future of the web, and work, is more open, more creative, and more equitable. And we’re here to build it together.

We're looking for a Brand Media Lead to own the strategy, planning, and execution of Webflow's brand media investments. This role sits at the intersection of brand strategy and media execution, translating campaign objectives into high-impact media plans that build awareness, shift perception, and drive consideration among our target audiences.

You'll partner closely with Brand Strategy leadership to understand campaign briefs, then develop and execute media strategies across channels, including connected TV (OTT), audio, programmatic display, and emerging formats. You'll manage agency and vendor relationships, negotiate media buys, and work with Marketing Analytics to measure impact through MMM, brand lift studies, and other measurement frameworks.

This is a strategic, hands-on role for someone who loves both the art and science of media—understanding the nuances of different channels while staying rigorous about measurement and optimization. You'll have the opportunity to shape how a fast-growing brand shows up in the market and build the infrastructure for brand media at Webflow.
