Job description

This is a senior, hands-on marketing role for someone who knows how to position creative excellence, tell compelling stories, and help an agency stand out in a crowded world—without shouting. Working directly with the Chief Creative Officer, you’ll shape and execute G&A’s marketing strategy across brand, content, campaigns, PR and thought leadership.

This is a rare opportunity to shape the voice, visibility, and influence of a globally respected experience design firm at a moment of real momentum. You’ll work directly with the Chief Creative Officer, have genuine ownership over how G&A shows up in the world, and help define what great marketing looks like for a creative organization that believes experience is everything.

• Identify and develop strong editorial angles around G&A’s work, people, and perspectives.

Campaigns & Channels

• Plan and manage integrated marketing campaigns across digital, social, email, and web.
• Oversee G&A’s presence on LinkedIn and other relevant platforms—strategic, not noisy.
• Track performance and optimize campaigns based on insight, not vanity metrics.

PR, Awards & Thought Leadership

• Support PR initiatives, press outreach, and media relationships.
• Manage awards submissions and industry recognition efforts.
• Help position G&A leaders as visible, credible voices within the experience design and cultural sectors.
• Partner closely with Business Development, Creative, and Leadership teams.
• Manage external partners, freelancers, or agencies as needed.
• Bring clarity, momentum, and high standards to everything marketing touches.

What You Bring:

• 5-8 years of marketing experience, ideally within a marketing, branding or creative agency
• Experience marketing professional services, creative work or complex offerings
• Demonstrated ability to own initiatives end-to-end
• Experience managing or developing junior team members
• Excellent writing, storytelling and editorial judgment

Nice to Have

• Experience collaborating with creative teams and leadership in agency environments.

Why G&A

• globally respected experience design work
