From transforming parking into a seamless drive-in, drive-out experience for millions of Members to expanding our intelligence layer across retail and hospitality, we are building a world that feels instinctive and magical. The future isn’t coming; it’s here, and we need builders, innovators, and problem solvers to help us create it.

• Deploy and optimize site-level digital media programs, including Google Ads, Meta, and geofencing, in partnership with performance marketing
• Act as the voice of the consumer, leveraging research and behavioral data to craft compelling positioning narratives
• Manage monthly performance reporting and client-facing dashboards for SEM spend, reservation volume, and store-visit ROAS to optimize against KPIs
• Manage partner marketing relationships to ensure tight alignment on brand guidelines, messaging, and shared business objectives
• Drive adoption of localized loyalty, consumer rewards, and third-party reservation‑marketplace integrations to lift location-level performance
• Partner with the Creative Project Manager to prioritize design requests and adapt brand templates for localized collateral
• Coordinate with lifecycle marketing to weave localized partner perks into member retention and engagement journeys
• Align with event strategy on Tier 1 launch activations and networking events for major properties

What we're looking for

• 5+ years of experience in consumer marketing, partner/co‑marketing, or strategic partnerships
• Experience owning marketing relationships or localized growth for high-value enterprise accounts or premier real‑estate portfolios

• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills with the ability to simplify complex ideas for broad audiences
• Proven ability to influence and collaborate across product, sales, analytics, and external partners
• Demonstrated comfort balancing short-term execution with long-term planning in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment
• Experience leveraging AI tools to transform static workflows into responsive, high-output processes

While not required, these are a plus

• Background in real estate, mobility, retail, or another location-based / multi-site marketing context
• Hands‑on experience with geofencing, location analytics, or store‑visit attribution
• Experience standing up marketing programs from scratch or inside a fast-scaling organization
