We’re looking for a Marketing Associate / Social Media Coordinator to bring creativity and experience that will support our strong community ties and commitment to our employees.  Here, your design and storytelling skills can shine as you craft our brand’s voice, showcase our people and projects, and help us connect with clients, employees, and communities in authentic, engaging ways.

Benefits:

✅ 401(k) + matching

✅ ESOP (employee-ownership!)

✅ Flexible work arrangements

✅ Paid time off

✅ Professional development opportunities

✅ A culture that values creativity, connection, and community

Key Responsibilities:

• Manage and maintain the company’s website, intranet site, and social media platforms, ensuring content is current, engaging, and aligned with our brand.
• Own and execute a social media content calendar that highlights projects, employees, company culture, and community involvement for LinkedIn and Facebook.
• Assist in the design, development, and formatting of marketing materials and proposals, ensuring a consistent and professional visual identity using Adobe Creative Cloud and Microsoft Office.
