You’ll also mentor junior team members and present your work in ways that are compelling, practical, and aligned with each client’s goals.

About Marketing for Change

We are a research and creative agency that leverages the power of social psychology, neuroscience and behavioral economics to understand, influence and evaluate the beliefs, attitudes and behaviors that advance social causes. Founded in 2005, Marketing for Change helps foundations, nonprofits, governments and companies “do good better.” Our 25-plus team includes copywriters, filmmakers, designers, researchers, developers and strategists — not to mention musicians, artists, podcasters, kayakers, and mountaineers. Because that part of life is just as important as work.

This position will be located in one of our work hubs in Alexandria, VA, or Orlando, FL. We are mostly a hybrid workforce with staff working together in-person at least one day a week because we value the fun and collaboration that allows.

• Experience in client management. At least 4 years of progressive experience in campaign/marketing strategy, account/project planning, or social marketing – preferably in an agency setting. You regularly assess ways to improve your account management and client service skills.
• Proven ability to synthesize research and shape insights into marketing strategies and campaign plans. Experience leading secondary research reviews, key informant interviews or stakeholder input sessions.
• Excellent communication skills. You’re clear and professional in writing, speaking, and presentations, and can confidently help craft narratives that connect data to client goals to meet key objectives.
• Organized and detail-oriented. You’re able to support multiple campaigns, timelines, and tasks without dropping the ball. You can prioritize across campaigns and competing priorities, and look to management to help prioritize as needed
• Demonstrated ability with budget tracking and planning. You ensure project tasks are delivered on time and within budget.
• Collaborative and empathetic to peers. You are committed to providing timely, developmental feedback that helps our team meet project goals and deliver great experience for our clients.
• Comfort working in ambiguity. You don’t wait for direction, you look ahead, spot opportunities, and take initiative. You bring strategic direction even when not all the answers are available. You are comfortable learning and adopting new tech platforms.
• Innate curiosity and a passion for learning. You’re naturally interested in what’s changing in marketing and communications. You seek and are receptive to developmental feedback.

Nice to haves:

• Experience mentoring or guiding junior staff. You enjoy sharing your knowledge and helping others, such as interns or coordinators, grow.
• Passion for social impact work. You care about the mission and want your work to make a real difference.
• Experience applying behavioral science or social marketing principles.

Some of the perks:

• We care about each other. We check in. We advocate and cover for each other. We cheer each other on. And we like to hang out.
• We offer a comprehensive benefits package including vacation, sick and holiday leave, 401(k) matching contributions, and paid parental leave. We offer a range of health plans including PPO and HSA healthcare, as well as dental, disability and life insurance.
• We are a deliberately developmental workplace. That means we will help you develop and pursue professional goals that match your life goals and purpose.
• We prioritize balance and flexibility. We are at our desks most days for 8 hours, not 10. We are open to schedule adjustments and flexible schedules.
• We are a flat organization. Everyone’s ideas are valued. Anyone can spearhead a new company initiative or make change.
• We care about social change . We show up each day as part of a fun and friendly work culture to do inspiring work that makes the world a better place.
