Role Overview
Coinflow's marketing team is small, fast-moving, and punches well above its weight. We operate as both an internal and external service org, running a packed events calendar, a multi-voice, multi-channel content engine, and community programs that convert.
We're hiring a Growth Marketing Specialist to own the day-to-day execution across content, community, social, and events as we continue scaling. This role reports directly to our Head of Marketing.
Plainly: you'll turn strategy into shipped work - cultivating growth with content, community, and events. You'll see creative ideas come to fruition, generating revenue for one of the fastest-growing startups in Chicago.

• Event Strategy & Execution: Own the strategic and operational backbone of Coinflow's event program - including strategy, logistics, guest lists, vendor coordination, and on-site execution.
• Community: Keep Coinflow's community and brand initiatives in motion to generate revenue and partnership opportunities.
• Content Publishing & Distribution: Execute blog posts, social content, newsletters - from draft to publish to reporting.
• Social Media Management: Manage day-to-day activity, engagement, and reporting across Coinflow's channels, keeping brand voice and vision consistent across accounts.
• Growth Experiments: Run smaller growth tests - social media experiments, landing page variants, community-led growth loops - in partnership with the marketing and growth team.
• Market & Competitive Research: Track payments industry trends and competitor moves, and feed what you learn back into content and campaign planning.

• Strong writing skills - comfortable drafting social copy, blog posts, or newsletter content in an established brand voice
• Highly organized, with the ability to run multiple content and event workstreams at once without dropping details
• Comfortable in a fast-paced, ambiguous startup environment - this role covers a lot of ground with limited hand-holding
• Hands-on comfort and curiosity using AI tools like Claude and ChatGPT to speed up workflows, research, drafting, and day-to-day execution - we expect you to use them, not avoid them
• Genuine interest in fintech, payments, or stablecoins

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with social media scheduling or lightweight design tools (e.g. Canva, Figma)
• Prior internship or early-career experience at a startup or fast-growth company
• Experience supporting live events - logistics, vendor coordination, or on-site execution
• Familiarity with the stablecoin, crypto, or broader payments space
