[Hiring] Digital Marketing & Creative Specialist @BOYD HOMES

Role Description

The Boyd Companies, Inc. is a 100% employee-owned company. We are looking for a creative, technically curious Digital Marketing & Creative Specialist to join our marketing team.

This role is ideal for someone who works remotely and gets things done. This person has a strong eye for design, understands what makes creative content visually effective, and enjoys turning ideas into engaging digital content. You will help create marketing materials for websites, social media, digital advertising, email campaigns, video, and other digital platforms.

We are not looking for someone who simply knows how to use design software. We want someone who understands why a design works—from layout and visual hierarchy to typography, color psychology, composition, spacing, and branding.

You should also be comfortable learning new technology. Digital marketing and creative production are changing quickly, and we are looking for someone who is excited to explore new software, platforms, and AI tools that can make our marketing more creative, efficient, and effective.

A college degree is not required. We care more about your creativity, portfolio, technical ability, willingness to learn, and ability to produce great work.
