Marketing Coordinator

Marketing Coordinator Overview:

We are seeking a dynamic Marketing Coordinator to join our team. The ideal candidate supports the execution of marketing and recruiting campaigns across lead generation, events, social media, content, and employer branding. Responsibilities include day-to-day coordination, campaign execution, and keeping projects on track. You will work closely with the Director of Marketing to turn strategy into action.

This is an execution-focused role. The right candidate is organized, takes initiative, communicates proactively, and takes pride in doing the details right. You will be a visible, trusted part of a small team building something meaningful across the entire organization.

You will work closely with the Director of Marketing every day in a collaborative, in-office environment. This is a small team, which means your work is visible and your contribution matters. We move at a steady pace, communicate directly, and genuinely invest in the people on our team. You will not be left to figure things out alone.

• Coordinate tasks and follow-ups across teams to keep projects moving
• Flag blockers and communicate progress proactively to the Director of Marketing

Tools & Platforms

You will work inside several tools on a daily basis. Familiarity with any of the following is a plus; we are willing to train the right person on specifics.

• CRM: HubSpot, Salesforce, or similar
• Email marketing: HubSpot, Mailchimp, or similar
• Social media scheduling: Buffer, Hootsuite, Sprout Social, or similar
• Project management: Asana, Monday, Notion, or similar
• Analytics: Google Analytics, platform-native dashboards

Marketing Coordinator Qualifications:

No degree required. We are looking for demonstrated experience, strong communication skills, and a track record of following through. Equivalent professional experience, internships, freelance work, and self-directed projects all count. Here is what we are looking for:

• 1–3 years of experience in marketing, project coordinating or a related field
• Proficient in Microsoft Suite
• Strong organizational skills and a track record of meeting deadlines
• Clear written and verbal communication - you will represent the brand every day
• Comfortable working independently, asking good questions, and flagging issues early
• A genuine interest in marketing and how companies attract customers and talent
• Understanding of lead generation, email campaigns, or digital marketing is a plus
• Familiarity with social media platforms from a brand or business perspective
• Experience supporting talent acquisition or employer branding initiatives is a plus

Growth & Development

This role is designed to grow. We are building a marketing function that does not fully exist yet - which means the person who comes in and does this well will have a meaningful opportunity to grow with it.

In your first year, you will build a strong foundation across campaign execution, events, and social media. As the function matures, there is a clear path toward a marketing manager role for someone who demonstrates ownership and results. Reviews are conducted annually and are tied to clearly defined milestones.
