Marketing Manager

Position Overview:

Flourish & Thrive Academy is the premier online marketing and business education platform for jewelry and creative product brands. We’re seeking a Marketing Manager to create, optimize, and manage the production of content across all marketing channels including our blog, email, podcast, social media, and social search channels for the brands. The ideal candidate is results driven, a self-starter, and LOVES social media and digital marketing.

This position is PERFECT for you if...

You THRIVE working in a fast-paced environment, on a small team, where you wear many hats.
You consider yourself a self-starter, who steps up to do whatever it takes to get the job done on time or early.
You are a planner – organized and structured in your approach – AND at the same time are ok when you have to pivot quickly if the strategy changes.
You are goal oriented and enjoy testing, tweaking, and optimizing to see what gets the best result and resonates with our audience.
You are highly organized and love following projects through to completion.
You are open to feedback and enjoy collaborating with others.
You have a unique ability to see the bigger picture for a project and also dial in the little parts and details needed to support the desired outcomes.
You LOVE learning new things - in fact you are hungry to stay on top of the latest trends in the industry to implement those trends in your role.
You enjoy connecting with people, nurturing an audience, and providing insights on what resonates to do the best you can do in your job.
You are available to generally work and respond to messages during the hours of 9am-5pm Mountain time.

This position is NOT for you if…

You don’t do well in a fast paced environment and prefer to only work on tasks on your job description list.
You don’t enjoy working from home and it’s hard for you to focus working remotely, in a virtual environment, away from the rest of your co-workers.
You don’t consider yourself a planner and prefer to fly by the seat of your pants.
It’s challenging for you to complete projects on time or early.
You can only work at nights and weekends or odd hours. The hours are flexible but we will need you to be available to respond during our business hours of 9 am - 5 pm Mountain time.
You don’t take feedback well in general
You aren’t available to do the work yourself (because you are outsourcing the work to someone else).
You can’t attend video conference calls during regularly scheduled meetings or during our business hours.
You don’t have a good, strong internet connection.

We’re seeking someone who can work 35-40 hours a week. The position will be hired as a contract position for the first 90 days and if both parties feel it’s a fit, we will offer a full-time position with the company.

You have 2-5 years experience in digital marketing and social media (ideally for an online business). You can work from home or wherever 100% of the time although you must be available for meetings, community engagement, and for team communications during the hours of 9 am - 5 pm MST.

Keep reading if you are excited to work closely with a quickly growing company where you’ll be part of a rockstar team…
