[Hiring] Senior Marketing Manager @Build Commonwealth

Role Description

Commonwealth is seeking a Senior Marketing Manager (SMM) to join our team. The role will be part of a passionate, highly cross-functional team dedicated to supporting Commonwealth's mission of creating systemic change for people living with financial insecurity. This individual will work closely with the Strategic Marketing Director, Senior Vice Presidents, Project Owners, Project Managers, and other members of the marketing team.

The SMM will serve as the marketing project lead for two or more projects and is responsible for ensuring the communications strategy and its implementation are aligned with and moving forward the overall goals of the project. Specific responsibilities include:

• Developing a marketing strategy to message and amplify specific project initiatives.
• Creating a detailed marketing plan.
• Developing content such as project briefs, research reports, infographics, blog posts, and social media copy, in partnership and close collaboration with the project team(s).
• Working closely with the Strategic Marketing Director to ensure integration of owned content at an organizational and operational level.
• Developing strategy around PR and events/conferences.

The right person for this role has a roll-up-your-sleeves, get-the-work-done mentality. This is a great opportunity for someone who can think strategically, has extensive knowledge of marketing best practices, thrives in a collaborative team, and makes decisions based on data. A best fit is someone who thrives as much in strategy planning as they do in operational execution. The SMM will project manage the communications plan execution and production implementation, ensuring timely content publication and promotion.
