• Social Media : Manage and help optimize impact from existing social media channels (LinkedIn, X) and help launch and maintain new ones (Instagram, Facebook)
• Website : Support website updates and projects in conjunction with our tech teams and external vendors
• Design : Assist in producing engaging marketing materials, including print and online advertisement, brochures, publications, and videos
• Other : Generate reporting, manage branded assets, and contribute to content strategy

Job Qualifications :

• You’re organized! And skilled at keeping processes and deadlines on track when relying on multiple (also busy) stakeholders and changing priorities
• Strong initiative and problem-solving skills
• Excellent written, grammar, and verbal communication across multiple formats
• Experience planning events for 10 to 100 people
• Experience using any email marketing platform (no specific tool required) with knowledge of structure, workflows, and engagement best practices
• Experience managing social media channels with knowledge of content planning, engagement, and platform best practices
• Detail-oriented with a sharp eye for design and brand consistency

Attributes for Success

• You’re a resourceful and adaptable team-player who contributes positively to our Cultural Blueprint : Character (Be Genuine), Connection (Build Relationships), and Commitment (Deliver Excellence)
• Experience with graphic design and Adobe Creative Suite (especially Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop. Bonus points : Premiere Pro)
