Someone who can take what's already happening at Lyon Lifts (projects, people, growth) and turn it into content and communications that build credibility and support the business.
We've grown from zero to $30M in under five years. The work is tangible, the team is hands-on, and there's no shortage of stories worth telling. We want one person dedicated to telling them well and consistently.

You'll also:
