Marketing & Communications Specialist

In alignment with our value of transparency, here is quick capture of our organization. We are in growth mode and hiring individuals who can make an immense impact on our organization and create the foundation of our culture. Our leadership team is highly focused on employee development and opposed to focusing externally on trendy perks, we’re creating programs and pathways to grow our employees in-house. The best part is that you have a sizeable stake in what that looks like for you. If you’re someone who values learning and growth, there would be no shortage of opportunity with us.

WHO YOU ARE

You enjoy problem solving and bringing new ideas to the table. You are never quite satisfied with the status quo and focus on improving processes and creating efficiencies. You believe that more minds are better than one and leverage your teammates for the best possible outcome. You’re honest and respectful in your communication style and when things goes astray, you understand that it’s an opportunity to learn, take accountability and create a path forward. You are naturally curious, malleable in your approach and don’t mind if every day looks a little different.

If this has piqued your interest, keep reading. We’re looking for a Marketing & Communications Specialist to join our team.
