Vice President of Marketing

De Soi is seeking a visionary, operator-minded VP of Marketing to lead the next chapter of brand and revenue growth.

This role will serve as a key member of the executive team, partnering directly with the founders and leadership to define and execute a long-term brand and growth strategy. You will oversee the full marketing ecosystem: brand, digital, retail, product marketing, trade, and partnerships — with full accountability for performance, team leadership, and cross-functional alignment.

De Soi is at an exciting inflection point. With strong distribution momentum, the next phase is about scaling brand awareness and activating that footprint to drive velocity across all channels. We’re seeking a strategic marketing leader who can translate distribution into demand, build a nationally recognized brand, and lead the marketing engine required to support De Soi’s next stage of growth.

This is a hybrid role based in Playa Vista (Tuesdays & Thursdays in-office).
