Job description

Marketing Manager – Growth & Brand | St. Charles, IL

Position Overview

We’re an established, growing interior design company that helps clients create beautiful, functional spaces they’re proud to live and work in. As the business continues to grow, we’re looking for a Marketing Manager who can help us tell that story, strengthen our brand, and create marketing that gets people excited about what we do.

This is a hands-on role with a lot of variety. You’ll be involved in everything from social media and content to digital marketing, lead generation, email campaigns, events, and brand initiatives. You’ll work closely with leadership, have the freedom to bring your own ideas to the table, and be responsible for taking projects from concept through execution.

We’re looking for someone who doesn’t want to simply be handed a list of tasks. You’ll have the opportunity to understand the business, ask questions, figure out what’s working, look at the numbers, and make changes when something isn’t delivering the results we want.

What You'll Be Doing

• Develop and execute marketing initiatives that build brand awareness, generate leads, increase engagement, and support overall business growth.
• Manage day-to-day marketing projects and campaigns, including social media, email marketing, website updates, newsletters, and other marketing communications.
• Create engaging content, graphics, presentations, sales materials, and other marketing collateral using Canva and similar design tools.
• Plan and execute client, community, volunteer, sponsorship, and company events, managing everything from planning and vendor coordination to day-of logistics and follow-up.
• Track campaign performance and key marketing metrics, analyze results, and make adjustments to improve engagement, lead generation, and overall campaign effectiveness.
• Manage relationships with outside marketing partners, vendors, and freelancers while helping develop and improve marketing processes and systems as the company grows.

What We're Looking For

• 1–2+ years of hands-on marketing experience across areas such as social media, content, digital marketing, communications, or events.
• Strong project management skills with the ability to own projects from start to finish, manage competing priorities, and pivot when needed.
• Comfortable looking at campaign performance and metrics, understanding what the results mean, and making changes to improve performance.
• Experience with Canva, social media platforms, email marketing, and CRM systems.
• Event planning and execution experience is preferred.
• Proactive, accountable, and self-directed with a strong work ethic and the desire to grow with a company and take on more responsibility.

Corporate Resources has been hired by our client to recruit for this open position and any/all other positions as requested and posted.
