Digital Marketing Manager

We are looking for a Digital Marketing Manager who takes initiative, thrives when busy, and can make marketing magic happen. This is not a post-and-pray role. We need someone who owns outcomes — someone who wakes up thinking about how to reach the right families at the right moment and move them to take action.

In addition to running our digital marketing channels, you will play a key role in building and nurturing our referral partner network — organizing events and cultivating relationships with other professionals who serve our ideal clients.

You will work directly with the firm’s Fractional CMO, the firm’s Founder, and the Director of Operations to design and execute a marketing engine that drives real, measurable growth. You will also bring deep expertise in artificial intelligence tools to work smarter, produce better content faster, and find opportunities others miss.

What We Offer

• Competitive base salary of $85,000 – $95,000 plus performance-based bonuses
• Health and wellness benefits (Medical, Dental, Vision, EAP, Life, 401(k) match)
• Flexible work arrangements — hybrid
• Direct access to and mentorship from firm leadership, including the Founder and Fractional CMO
• A culture that values work-life balance and genuinely cares about your personal, professional, and financial growth
• Learning and development opportunities, including access to training, workshops, and career advancement resources
• A fast-moving, supportive team where high performers are recognized and rewarded

How To Apply

• We require a completed application consisting of a resume, screening questions on Wizehire, and a detailed cover letter telling us what makes you a star player.
• If you are chosen for the next round in the interview process, we will send you a written interview to complete.
• After reading your written interview, we will choose a select few candidates to meet with in-person.
• Please do not call or visit our offices to inquire about this position! We will notify all applicants at the conclusion of our hiring process.
