This role exists to create demand across multiple channels, and help turn Chegg Skills into a clearly understood, trusted, and desired brand for learners, employers, and partners. We are looking for a Head of Marketing who is equal parts strategist, builder, and doer - someone who can think big, move fast, and execute relentlessly in an ambiguous environment. Why This Role Matters This is a chance to shape a brand at an inflection point. You will not inherit a finished system. You will help build it. The impact of this role will be visible, measurable, and meaningful. If you are looking for comfort, this is not it.
