Fantastic opportunity for a marketing generalist with 3 – 5 years of experience, to work with a small but powerful marketing team, and to deepen your skillset learning from a team with more than 40 combined years of experience both in the for-profit/consumer marketing arena, as well as the non-profit world of marketing. The marketing team is in the early stages of redefining marketing within the organization, which makes this the perfect time to join us. The org as a whole is in the process of a digital transformation – organized chaos at its finest!
This will be a fast-paced position that can take you from content creation, to media relations, to project management…all before lunch. This is an ideal position for someone who has had hands on experience across a range of marketing disciplines, and who wants to further develop their skills, while working towards owning a piece of the marketing puzzle. This is a great hands-on development/learning opportunity.
Experience with or understanding of non-profits is not required, but helpful as the relationship between staff and board/lay-leadership, changes the marketing dynamic from the mainstream B2B or B2C marketing environments.
We are a true “mistakes are learning opportunities” team…we don’t just say that. If you check most of the boxes below, we’ll teach you the rest. Flex time and work from home, although at the beginning, would like to have position in the office most days. Extremely generous vacation package.
