Buck Mason is hiring a Head of Men’s Brand & Communications to drive communications and new media for our men’s business. Reporting to VP of Digital and partnering directly with our founders, you’ll own the narrative and relationships that reinforce product stories and brand first principles, and you’ll maintain the industry relationships that create opportunities for brand exposure. This is a hands-on, in-house opportunity to build and run your own new media team.
Sasha Koehn and Erik Allen founded Buck Mason in 2013 to simplify the American wardrobe. Meeting as neighbors in Venice Beach, they started designing and selling clothes out of a small studio off Abbot Kinney Boulevard. Sasha built the website and Erik created the brand’s first collection of jeans and tees. Taking an architectural approach to design, they built each piece to last far beyond a single season. Obsessed with quality, they worked with local mills and factories to create the finest fabrics down to the thread. Today, Buck Mason offers a broad range of clothing and accessories with a continued commitment to making high-quality, modern American classics.
