Director, TCG & Pop Culture Marketing

Collectors is the leading creator of innovative technology that provides value-added services for collectors worldwide. We grade, authenticate, vault, and sell millions of record-setting collectibles, all while modernizing and digitalizing the process to further our mission of helping collectors pursue their passions. We’re always on the lookout for talented people to join our growing team.

Our services span collectible trading cards, autographs, comic books, coins, video games, event tickets, and memorabilia. Our subsidiaries include PSA, PCGS, Beckett, SGC, and Card Ladder.

Since our founding in 1986, we have graded and authenticated millions of items. We employ more than 3000 people across our headquarters in Santa Ana, California and offices in New Jersey, Texas, Florida, Japan, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Canada, Mexico, Germany, and France.

As part of our interview process, we request that candidates have their cameras on during video interviews. This helps foster meaningful conversation and allows us to create an experience that closely resembles our standard working environment. Certain interview steps may take place by phone. For remote roles, and at our discretion, candidates may be asked to participate in an on-site interview as part of the final stages of the process.

We understand there may be occasional circumstances requiring accommodation and are happy to discuss them as needed. Your recruiter will be able to clarify expectations and answer any questions you have.

We are seeking a Director of TCG & Pop Culture Marketing to lead strategy and execution for PSA’s TCG and Pop Culture grading categories, including Pokémon, comics, magazines, and video games.

This role owns how products come to market and scale, spanning positioning, go-to-market strategy, and lifecycle growth. The Director serves as the central connector across Product, Operations, Growth, and Brand to ensure clarity of strategy and disciplined execution. This leader brings deep, first-hand credibility in TCG ecosystems alongside strong product marketing leadership and plays a critical role in strengthening PSA’s position at the center of the collector ecosystem.

You’ll report to the Senior Director of PSA Marketing and work from our Santa Ana or New Jersey office. Remote or hybrid candidates will also be considered. We believe that there is significant value in in-person collaboration. If you live within a 1 hour commuting distance to one of our offices, you will be required to be onsite most of the time. This will be discussed further as part of the recruiting process.
