Job description

Be the process and problem-solving genius who keeps all the creative, brand, and marketing plates spinning at this multichannel healthcare retailer!

Contract Role, pay range: $42 to $53 per hour

Are You the Missing Piece?

You know that person every creative team secretly relies on? The one who knows where the assets live, what project is stuck in approvals, which vendor needs a follow-up, and why that signage package absolutely cannot miss Friday's deadline?

That's who we’re looking for.

This role sits at the intersection of brand, creative, retail marketing, and operations. You'll be the connective tissue between ideas and execution, keeping projects moving, assets organized, stakeholders aligned, and creative work flowing from request to reality.

One minute you're tracking down the latest approved logo. Next, you're managing and maintaining the Digital Asset Management (DAM) system. You'll be coordinating campaign assets, managing project workflows, supporting retail activations, and helping creative teams stay focused on the work that matters most.

If you're the type of person who gets genuine satisfaction from turning chaos into clarity, this one has your name all over it.

What's it going to take to score an interview?

• Experience managing creative projects, marketing initiatives, or brand operations
• Strong organizational skills and an uncanny ability to keep multiple moving pieces on track
• Experience working with Digital Asset Management (DAM) platforms
• Familiarity with creative workflows and project management systems
• The confidence to chase deadlines, coordinate stakeholders, and keep momentum high
• Strong attention to detail because version control matters, and nobody wants the wrong logo in market!
• Working knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite and basic design support
• Excellent communication, follow-through, and problem-solving skills
• Experience supporting marketing, creative, retail agency, or brand teams
• Most importantly, you're someone who sees a messy process and immediately starts figuring out how to make it better.

You should take this meeting because …

You'll get a front-row seat to how brand, marketing, retail, creative, and production teams come together to execute at scale. You'll touch everything from campaign assets and creative operations to in-store marketing and brand management. It's a role for people who love being indispensable. The designers get the glory. The marketers get the spotlight. You get to be the behind-the-scenes reason it all happens. Sound good? Get in touch with us today – this one will go fast.
