Ascend Vision Partners (AVP) is not looking for a traditional Marketing Manager. We're looking for a builder. An AI-native growth leader who wants to help create the modern blueprint for how high-performing marketing organizations operate in the AI era.

At AVP, you won't inherit a massive team, layers of bureaucracy, or endless meetings.

Instead, you'll sit at the executive table and directly shape the growth trajectory of a rapidly expanding healthcare platform — using AI, automation, analytics, creativity, and relentless execution to create the output for results.

What Makes This Role Unique

This is a rare opportunity to:

• Build an enterprise marketing engine from the ground up
• Partner directly with the CEO and executive leadership team on growth and brand initiatives.
• Aggressively leverage AI tools as a competitive advantage.
• Blend strategy, analytics, operations, and hands-on execution.
• Drive measurable revenue growth and enterprise value creation.
• Operate with real ownership, visibility, and impact.

This is not a "manage the agency" role.

What You'll Actually Do

You'll own enterprise-wide marketing initiatives across digital, referral, grassroots, and traditional channels and this will enable:

• Patient growth and retention
• Premium procedure adoption
• Physician referral growth
• Brand awareness and visibility
• Commercial payor mix improvement

Some of the ways you will accomplish this:

• Creating AI-generated campaigns
• SEO + SEM optimization
• Paid social strategy
• CRM automation
• Analytics dashboards
• Reputation management
• Referral growth campaigns
• Landing page optimization
• Video/Social content creation
• Marketing attribution analysis

Why Ambitious Marketers Will Love This Role

This is the kind of opportunity where your ideas won't disappear into committees. You'll see your work directly impact all aspects of the business.

You'll help define what an AI-enabled marketing organization looks like in a modern healthcare platform, and you'll do it with executive support from day one.

If you want a role where you can truly make your mark using AI, analytics, creativity, and execution — this is it.
