The position will build upon the marketing strategies, materials, relationships, and initiatives already established at each property. The expectation is to preserve existing momentum, advance the strongest work, and make targeted improvements—not begin again from scratch. Key Responsibilities: Marketing Strategy and Positioning Develop and manage a distinct annual marketing plan for each property. Build upon existing marketing strategies, campaigns, collateral, photography, prospect lists, and market research. Establish clear value propositions and priority customer segments for each venue. Position each property appropriately without diluting its individual identity. Identify need periods, underutilized spaces, and revenue opportunities requiring targeted marketing support.

Coordinate familiarization events, open houses, planner showcases, strategic partnerships, and other business‑development programs. Ensure marketing‑generated inquiries are captured, tracked, and transferred promptly to the appropriate sales team. Work with property sales leaders to convert marketing activity into site visits, proposals, bookings, and revenue. Digital Marketing Manage targeted email, digital advertising, paid search, social media, retargeting, and event‑marketplace initiatives. Improve website content, venue descriptions, photography selection, and calls to action. Strengthen search visibility for relevant meeting, conference, retreat, and event searches. Develop and maintain approved LinkedIn and social media content. Track website traffic, inquiries, conversions, campaign performance, and cost per qualified lead. Recommend the most effective communication channels for each property and target audience. Content and Sales Support Develop venue‑specific presentations, fact sheets, email templates, campaign materials, and digital collateral. Create event case studies, venue spotlights, customer testimonials, seasonal promotions, and sample event experiences. Produce content highlighting food and beverage, audiovisual capabilities, meeting environments, accommodations, outdoor spaces, and service. Maintain an organized library of current and approved marketing materials, photography, messaging, and brand assets. Support sales campaigns with targeted messaging, prospect research, and available‑date promotions. Review lost‑business information and use the findings to improve positioning and future campaigns. Qualifications: Bachelor’s degree in marketing, communications, hospitality, business, or a related field. Seven or more years of progressive marketing experience. Experience marketing conference centers, hotels, event venues, hospitality businesses, executive education programs, or comparable services. Demonstrated success generating qualified leads and measurable revenue through marketing. Strong digital marketing, email marketing, content development, and campaign‑management experience.

Experience working with senior leaders, sales teams, operating teams, and institutional communications departments. Ability to work independently while maintaining close alignment with property stakeholders. Comfort participating in frequent live and in‑person working meetings.
