The Opportunity

Bill Jacobs Motorsport — one of the Midwest's most respected luxury automotive groups — is looking for a sharp, detail-driven Marketing Operations Manager to keep our marketing engine running on all cylinders.

This is a hands-on execution role at the center of everything the marketing function does day to day. You'll take the strategy set by leadership and turn it into action — managing the calendar, coordinating with vendors and dealership teams, keeping digital platforms accurate and compliant, and making sure nothing falls through the cracks across BMW, MINI, Volkswagen, Land Rover, Current Automotive, and Ambassador Auto Reconditioning.

If you're the kind of person who thrives on organization, follow-through, and getting things done right and on time — and you want to do it inside a growing, well-respected dealer group — we want to hear from you.

• Maintain and update dealership websites, SEO pages, social channels, and Google Business Profiles
• Build, proof, and deploy email campaigns through our CRM
• Develop and schedule approved social media content across all brands
• Keep digital content compliant with OEM Corporate Identity standards
• Manage the marketing project tracker and calendar, coordinating deadlines and deliverables across departments and vendors
• Coordinate day-to-day marketing requests from ownership, HR, and dealership management

We've built a culture rooted in our RISE values: Respect, Integrity, Social Responsibility, and Excellence. These aren't words on a wall — they shape how we lead, collaborate, and serve our customers and community every day.

What's In It For You

• Competitive Salary: Commensurate with experience.
• Health Insurance: Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois — PPO and HMO plans.
• Dental, Vision & Life Insurance: Generous coverage plus supplemental options including pet insurance, identity theft protection, and pre-paid legal insurance.
• 401(k) with Company Contribution: We invest in your future.
• Generous PTO: Because balance matters.
• Employee Discounts: On vehicle purchases, parts, and service.
• Wellness Programs: For you and your family members.
• Free On-Site Health Coaching: Personalized support from a certified health coach — nutrition, fitness, stress management, and lifestyle guidance.
• On-Site Physician Assistant: Convenient access to preventive health guidance and minor medical consultations during the workday — no appointment needed.
• Tuition Reimbursement: Furthering your education? We'll help fund it.
• Career Growth: Real opportunity to advance with a growing, successful luxury dealer group.
