About RumplRumpl makes comfort perform. We invented the modern outdoor blanket and continue to lead the category through technical innovation, bold design, and storytelling that sparks connection. From artistic collaborations to ultra-packable gear, we exist to celebrate the moments after it - when the hike is done, the fire is lit, and connection begins.
Were builders at heart. We move fast, test often, and care deeply about the relationships behind the business - from our retail partners to the communities that bring our brand to life.
About the RoleThis is a high-impact, player-coach role. Youll own Rumpls go-to-market process and make sure every product launch shows up with clarity, consistency, and impact - then extend that work into brand-building across events, partnerships, social, and community.
Some days youll be architecting seasonal GTM plans. Other days youll be on a trade show floor, activating a partnership, or jumping into creative execution. Youll manage one direct report while staying close to the work yourself.
This role travels. A lot. Trade shows, activations, and partnerships mean you'll be on the ground regularly throughout the year, representing Rumpl in the real world.
This role is accountable for brand heat, cultural relevance, and top-of-funnel momentum. If youre looking to purely manage or stay at the strategy layer, this role aint for you.
