Vice President of Marketing and Communications

Who we are:

Flatbush Cats is a Brooklyn-based nonprofit working to reduce overcrowded animal shelters in New York City and prevent more cats from ending up on the street in the first place. What began as a grassroots rescue effort has grown into a $9M citywide organization addressing the root causes through affordable veterinary care, access to spay/neuter services, and community outreach.

At the heart of our work is Flatbush Veterinary Clinic, a high-volume nonprofit clinic serving low-income pet owners, rescue organizations, and Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) volunteers throughout Brooklyn. Each year, the clinic performs more than 7,500 spay/neuter surgeries—a number that continues to grow—while providing affordable wellness and dental care to thousands of pets.

By combining high-quality veterinary care with a commitment to accessibility, we're helping keep pets with their families while creating a city where more people and pets can receive the support they need.

The Opportunity:

Flatbush Cats is seeking a Vice President of Marketing & Communications to shape the marketing and communications strategy for a high-momentum nonprofit entering a major new chapter. We have built a large, highly engaged audience through powerful storytelling, reaching several million cat lovers per month through organic social. This leader will set even higher goals, design the strategy, and use a broader tool set - including paid media - to reach more people who would love to be part of this work. Reporting to the Executive Director, the VP will oversee an integrated team spanning brand, messaging, digital, paid/growth, editorial, and communications planning. This is a newly created senior leadership role with the opportunity to assess what exists, define the function’s future, build the team, and establish the systems and processes needed for scale.
