Marketing Associate

Marketing Associate

HIKINEX is a multi-channel integrated service provider helping companies scale faster, boost efficiency, and drive greater profitability. We build dedicated remote teams in sales, recruitment, marketing, and operations so our clients can work on their business instead of in it.

We're looking for a motivated Marketing Associate to support our growing Marketing Department across content, campaigns, creative production, and marketing operations. This is an excellent opportunity for someone early in their marketing career who is eager to learn, take ownership, and develop across multiple areas of marketing. You'll work closely with the Creative Director, Content Strategist, Designers, and Marketing Leads while gaining hands-on experience in branding, content creation, social media, campaign execution, project coordination, and AI-assisted marketing.

Beyond supporting campaigns, you'll play an important role in keeping the Marketing Department organized by coordinating projects, maintaining documentation, managing marketing assets, and ensuring deliverables move efficiently through the team's workflow. We're building an AI-first Marketing Department, so curiosity about AI tools and a willingness to adopt new technologies is highly encouraged.

Key Responsibilities:

• Assist with creating and editing marketing materials in Canva (social media posts, presentations, one-pagers, landing page assets, etc.).
• Support the Creative Director and Content Strategist with day-to-day marketing initiatives.
• Schedule and publish content across social media platforms.
• Coordinate marketing campaigns, product launches, and internal marketing activities.
• Organize and maintain the department's digital asset library, ensuring files are consistently named, categorized, and easy to locate.
• Update and maintain project progress in project tracking tools.
• Conduct research to support marketing campaigns, products, competitors, and industry trends.
• Proofread and format marketing content before publication.
• Track project timelines and follow up with team members to ensure deliverables stay on schedule.
• Help create and maintain SOPs, templates, training materials, and marketing documentation.
• Support recruiting and employer branding initiatives when required.
• Leverage AI tools to accelerate research, content creation, documentation, and administrative tasks.
• Take ownership of assigned work, communicate progress proactively, and identify blockers early.

Required Skills:

• Strong organizational and time management skills.
• Excellent attention to detail.
• Good written and verbal communication skills.
• Working knowledge of Canva.
• Comfortable learning new tools and software quickly.
• Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.
• Problem-solving mindset with a proactive approach.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where priorities may change.

Tools & Technologies:

Canva, Microsoft 365

AI Tools:

HIKINEX is building an AI-first Marketing Department. Familiarity with tools such as ChatGPT, Claude, Canva AI, or similar AI productivity tools is highly desirable. We encourage continuous learning and experimentation with AI to improve efficiency and quality of work.

Experience Required:

• 0–2 years of experience in marketing, internships, or related projects.
• No formal degree required. Relevant experience, personal projects, certifications, or a strong portfolio are equally valued.
• Experience using Canva or similar design tools is preferred.

Work Samples:

Please include 2–3 examples of work you're proud of. This could include social media posts, presentations, personal projects, university work, marketing campaigns, or content you've created. Professional experience is not required — we're interested in your potential, creativity, and attention to detail.

Who Will Thrive in This Role:

You're organized, curious, and eager to learn. You enjoy bringing structure to fast-moving projects, communicating with people, and helping teams stay organized. You're excited to build your marketing career, comfortable using technology to work smarter, and willing to take ownership as your responsibilities grow.

We Encourage You to Apply:

If you don't meet every requirement listed above, we still encourage you to apply. We're looking for people with curiosity, initiative, and a willingness to learn. Skills can be developed over time — we value attitude, ownership, and growth potential just as much as experience.
