Nothing exists to make tech feel exciting again.
We’re building a different kind of company, one that puts design, emotion, and human creativity at the heart of everything we do. From the way our products look to how they sound, feel, and function, we care about the details that make technology not just useful, but inspiring.
This is a place for the curious. The creators. The ones who ask why not and mean it. If you're drawn to bold ideas, fast moves, and work that actually makes you feel something, you’ll fit right in.
We're not here to follow the rules. We're here to make better ones.
About Nothing
Founded in London in 2020, Nothing is a design-led tech company building an alternative to the industry giants. Our products – from award-winning smartphones to expressive audio and wearables – blend iconic design with intuitive engineering to put people and creativity back at the centre of consumer tech.
Backed by GV (Google Ventures), EQT Ventures, C Ventures, and influential investors like Tony Fadell (iPod), Casey Neistat, and Kevin Lin (Twitch), we’ve grown from startup to global challenger in just a few years.
The Role:
We’re looking for an experienced and visionary Head of Smartphones Marketing to lead the strategy and execution across our smartphones portfolio. This individual will be the business lead for marketing across the smartphone product line, taking full ownership of driving the success of the category through effective strategy, innovative campaigns, and seamless collaboration across departments. In the short-term this role will also be responsible for software marketing, as it grows within the business.
You’ll be responsible for defining the why, who, and how behind every launch, leading cross-functional teams to build positioning, messaging, and campaigns that break through culture and the smartphone segment. You will work closely with Product, Sales, GTM, Creative, and other teams to ensure product launches and lifecycle management meet company objectives and deliver exceptional customer experiences.
This role requires a rare mix of strategic thinking, creative flair, and operational excellence. It’s for someone who can inspire teams across continents, guide bold work, and stay sharp under pressure.

* Develop and implement go-to-market strategies, ensuring all marketing touchpoints (digital, social, retail, influencer, etc.) are aligned and impactful.
* Manage the lifecycle of smartphones & software post-launch, ensuring consistent engagement with target audiences and maximising product longevity.
