The marketing manager will work closely with the MarComms Director, Graphic Designer, Social Media Contractor, and Web Developer to keep marketing flowing smoothly for all PNA events.

• Fulfill targeted-email requests from the events team. 

Newspaper  

• Ensure smooth production of the quarterly Review (20,000 households), working with all departments, designer, printer and USPS. 
• Sell, manage and invoice up to 18 advertisements per issue. 

Website  

• Build new pages and event listings on WordPress; keep all information current. 
• Support events and rentals teams with class or event registration links and basic troubleshooting.

Event Management  

• Meet with the events team at project kickoff to record marketing deliverables, tasks and deadlines. 
• Track progress to ensure collateral, web updates, emails and social posts launch on schedule. 

Qualifications  

• A minimum of 3-5 years’ project-management and marketing experience in nonprofit or other fast-paced environments 
• Strong attention to detail and ability to work independently 
• Experience with driving projects forward and keeping collaborators accountable 
• Experience updating websites, particularly with WordPress 
• Experience with the project-management software Asana 
• Excellent writing and editing skills with attention to detail 
• Strong interpersonal communication skills and a desire to collaborate across departments, members and volunteers with varied communication styles 
• Data-driven mindset with the ability to track, analyze and report engagement 
• Curious, action-oriented and able to juggle concurrent projects 
• Comfortable in an open-office environment and able to work in person most of the week 

Compensation  

This 20-hour-per-week, Monday-through-Friday position pays $25 to $27 an hour, depending on experience . Benefits include: health insurance; a 401(k) plan with employer match; long-term disability insurance; a flexible spending account; self-paid Aflac products; a free PNA household membership with reduced costs for classes and room rentals; three weeks of personal time off the first year (increasing annually); Christmas Eve through New Year’s Day off; and eight paid holidays (total paid time off the first year: about 5.5 weeks). We offer a people-oriented, caring work environment.
