Who Are We?
The Obol Collective is quickly becoming the foundation of layer 1 blockchains like Ethereum through Obol Distributed Validators (DVs) — our industry leading validator technology that improves performance, lowers risks and increases rewards. We’re already securing $1B+ of ETH through key partners like Lido & EtherFi and we’re expecting continued rapid growth. We’re backed by top tier angels like David Hoffman, Anthony Sassano, Sreeram Kannan, Dankrad Feist and tier 1 investors like Pantera, Archetype, Ethereal Ventures, Placeholder and more.
DV Labs is both the first and largest contributor to the Obol Collective, including building much of the core technology behind the project.
The Role
As the Content & Communications Lead, you will shape Obol’s external voice across content, media, and events.
Sitting within the Marketing team, this role works closely with Business, Product, and Leadership to execute high-impact campaign-driven initiatives while also managing reactive, high-value communications.
Your work will drive thought leadership, media visibility, and strategic event participation—ensuring Obol continues to lead the industry.
A significant portion of your work will contribute to integrated campaigns, aligning content, PR, and event strategy with key marketing objectives. At the same time, you'll need to be nimble, handling one-off, high-priority communications as opportunities arise.

- Craft compelling narratives that reinforce Obol’s leadership position and engage key audiences.
- Ensure consistency in tone, messaging, and style across all external communications.
PR & Media Relations
- Build and maintain relationships with journalists, analysts, and industry influencers.
- Develop proactive media strategies that align with ongoing campaigns while also handling opportunistic media outreach for major industry moments.
- Craft compelling media pitches, secure press coverage, and manage public messaging for key announcements.
- Develop press materials, talking points, and external messaging frameworks.
Event & Speaker Programming
- Own speaker and sponsorship strategy as part of Obol’s broader event campaigns, ensuring alignment with key marketing goals.
- Lead speaker submissions for industry conferences and events, curating panels and sessions that amplify Obol’s thought leadership.
- Develop programming for Obol-led events, workshops, and panels, ensuring a seamless connection to larger marketing efforts.
- Identify reactive and one-off high-value speaking and sponsorship opportunities to enhance brand visibility.
Requirements
- Mandatory: 3+ years of experience in content marketing, communications, PR, or a related field, within the Ethereum / Web3 ecosystem
- Proven ability to execute campaign-driven content strategies while also managing one-off, high-priority initiatives.
- Strong ability to craft compelling narratives, messaging, and positioning for technical and non-technical audiences.
- Experience working with media, securing press coverage, and managing external communications.
- Experience with event programming, speaker management, and industry relations is a plus.
- Ability to adapt quickly and execute efficiently in a fast-paced, evolving environment with shifting priorities.
