What We're Looking For

The ideal candidate is a self-starter who is both strategic and hands‑on. This person should be comfortable developing the marketing strategy one day and creating a social media post, updating the website, coordinating an event, or pulling campaign metrics the next.

Because we are a smaller organization, we're looking for someone who doesn't need a large team or agency to execute their ideas and enjoys having a direct impact on the company's growth and brand.

Why Join Us?

• Opportunity to build and own the company's marketing function
• High visibility with company leadership
• Ability to make a meaningful impact in a growing organization
• Collaborative, entrepreneurial work environment
• Competitive compensation and benefits
• Birmingham-based team and strong local presence
