[Hiring] Marketing Specialist @CIEE Inc

Role Description

As Marketing Specialist, High School Exchange, you will drive the two U.S. side supply engines that make inbound high school exchange possible: host family recruitment and high school partnerships. Every international student who joins a CIEE high school program needs a family who says yes and a school that will enroll them, and this role is how we generate and nurture both.

This is a hands-on execution role for someone who likes seeing work go out the door:

• Build and schedule email nurture sends to host family inquiries, and monitor deliverability and list hygiene.
• Coordinate collection of host family testimonials, photos, and video release forms.
• Draft social posts and short form content for host family channels, and maintain the posting calendar.

• Fulfill agent requests for program materials, photos, school profiles, and translated or translation ready files.
