Brand Marketing Manager

Brand Marketing Manager, Hotel Park Ave NYC

We're looking for a Brand Marketing Manager who knows New York, understands culture and hospitality, and has a strong understanding of what makes a brand relevant.

Hotel Park Ave NYC sits where Midtown's business world meets the creative energy of NoMad and Flatiron. As the hotel continues to establish itself in New York, this role will be central to shaping how the brand shows up, from partnerships and programming to content, communications and guest experience.

We're looking for someone who is curious, culturally connected and close to what is happening in New York. Someone who understands how people move through the city and shapes the hotel brand around that, not around a generic idea of lifestyle or boutique hospitality.
