About The Ride Platform
The Ride Platform, Inc. is the parent company of Outdoorsy, Ride, Wheelbase, and Roamly. We are named for the single transaction where an operator meets a renter. We build end-to-end for the Operator Economy: the marketplaces to book (Outdoorsy, Ride), the enterprise SaaS to manage (Wheelbase), and the insurtech (Roamly) to protect the assets people turn into businesses. We enable millions of people to explore the world while helping independent operators build generational wealth. Our mission is to build the essential infrastructure for the mobility economy.
About the Role
The Ride Platform is looking for a strategic, self-motivated communications professional to lead its corporate and brand PR efforts.
As Public Relations Manager, you'll be an integral part of the marketing team, partnering closely with the Director of Marketing & PR on PR plans that earn media coverage, build our reputation as a tech and innovation company, and get us credit for the platform we're building.
This role supports critical communications initiatives including (but not limited to) earned media across tech, business, and trade press; executive thought leadership and ghostwriting; award submissions and speaking opportunities; cross-brand corporate storytelling; and brand reputation and issues management. Your focus is the corporate and B2B side of the portfolio - Roamly, Wheelbase, and The Ride Platform itself - and the conversations that matter to us: autonomous vehicles, insurtech, the operator economy, and the future of fleet ownership. This is not the Outdoorsy consumer or travel-media role.
The PR Manager will collaborate regularly with the Brand, Marketing, and Partnerships teams, as well as working with company spokespersons and executive leadership. This position reports directly to the Director of Marketing & PR, and runs point with our external PR agency - briefing, steering, and holding the work to a high bar.
