The standard playbook wasn’t enough for Jess Cook, so she wrote her own.

In this episode of Reed Between the Lines, I sit down with Jess, Head of Marketing at Vector, who leaped from leading content to running the entire marketing org. Her career move wasn’t about climbing the ladder. It was about finding creative freedom and proving that brand and storytelling deserve a seat at the table.

From her early days of writing jokes on McDonald’s Happy Meal boxes to bold campaigns at Vector, Jess shares what she’s learned about standing out, taking risks, and building marketing that connects with people.
