Your judgment gates all outputs. • Cross-Functional Partnership: Be the connective tissue between the Head of Design, Head of Performance Marketing, Director of Brand, and Product Marketing Lead. • Team & Vendor Building: Build a small team and manage freelancers or agencies that provide capacity, all powered by the AI systems you implement.

Actual compensation varies based on location, experience, and qualifications. • Total Cash Compensation Range: $175,000 – $225,000 per year Benefits • Health Insurance Coverage (medical, dental, and vision) • Life Insurance • Short and Long-Term Disability Insurance • Flexible Spending Accounts • Holiday Pay • 401(k) with match • Employee Assistance Program • Paid Parental Bonding Benefit Program • Flexible Paid Time Off (PTO): 20 days per year, increasing to 25 days after five years of service Who We Are Bankrate is where Americans go to get the best price on important financial decisions.

This is a new role and the founding seat of Bankrate’s Marketing Creative pod — focusing on AI-native creative leadership that combines sharp creative judgment with deep AI fluency to drive revenue and elevate the brand through scalable, channel-native creative.

You will set the standard for what good looks like visually and verbally, and build AI tooling and workflows to deliver at volume and velocity. You will own the full arc: the judgment that enables shipping, the systems that ship quickly, and the results that tie to revenue and brand lift.
