Job description

Special Projects Lead, Marketing & Business Development

Shape strategy. Tell powerful stories. Win meaningful work.

If you’re a senior marketing professional who loves turning ideas into impact—and thrives in fast-paced, relationship-driven environments—this role was designed with you in mind.

As a Special Projects Lead, you’ll sit at the intersection of strategy, storytelling, and business development. You’ll partner closely with senior leadership to drive high-visibility pursuits, craft compelling narratives, and elevate how the organization shows up in the marketplace. Your work will directly influence growth, reputation, and long-term success.

This is an opportunity to lead, not just execute—to bring your experience, creativity, and judgment to the table and be trusted to make things happen.

What You’ll Do

Lead direct-to-client pursuits that position the organization to win work

Develop persuasive, well-written content for print and digital platforms

Translate complex technical information into clear, compelling marketing collateral

Prepare interview and presentation materials that support business development efforts

Collaborate with senior leaders on marketing strategy and special initiatives

Support participation in relevant client organizations and industry associations

What You Bring -Experience & Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in marketing, communications, public relations, journalism, or a related field

10+ years of progressive marketing experience with demonstrated results

Must have experience working in an architecture or engineering firm

Exceptional writing, editing, and verbal communication skills

Strong design sensibility, including typography and layout, with openness to feedback

Proven ability to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines with confidence

Proficiency in Adobe Creative Cloud (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop) and Microsoft applications

A robust portfolio showcasing creative, strategic marketing work across platforms

How You Show Up

Collaborative, proactive, and relationship-oriented

Comfortable working with senior leaders and cross-functional teams

Organized, self-motivated, and accountable

Thoughtful, fiscally responsible, and detail-oriented

Dependable and persuasive, with strong follow-through

A problem-solver who sees obstacles as opportunities

Creative, adaptable, and known for a “can-do” attitude

Why This Role Stands Out

High visibility and direct access to decision-makers

Meaningful influence on strategy, positioning, and growth

A team-oriented environment that values professionalism, integrity, and initiative

The chance to apply your experience in a role that truly benefits from senior-level thinking
