Every day we honor our iconic brand by offering quality coverage to millions of customers and being there when they need us most. We thrive on relentless innovation to exceed our customers' expectations while making a real impact on local communities nationwide.
Founded in 1936, GEICO is a member of the Berkshire Hathaway family of companies and one of the largest auto insurers in the United States.

About the Role
Within Marketing at GEICO - a team in the middle of a significant transformation - the brand and go-to-market strategy for our specialty lines (cycle, boat, and RV) is what turns competitive trends, business goals, and customer insight into work that moves the business. Getting this right is a real competitive advantage and a must-do.
You'll own the brand and go-to-market strategy for GEICO's specialty lines: analyzing and translating business data into marketing strategy, developing advertising strategy across Paid/Owned/Earned Media and Creative, and serving as the primary strategic lead for agency partners across every activation channel. You'll turn competitive trends, business goals, and AI-assisted analysis into clear channel, creative, partner, and lifecycle decisions, and champion consumer and market research to guide brand and go-to-market decisions.
This role also leads people - coaching a Marketing Lead and junior associates - and owns the Specialty marketing budget end to end. It's a strong fit for someone who wants full ownership of a brand's strategy and story, not just a piece of it, and who's ready to build a team's judgment and craft alongside their own.
How We Work
The Marketing organization at GEICO is guided by a clear set of principles: we hire the best at every level and invest in developing them. We believe that strategy comes before action - if we don't know why we're doing something, we don't do it. We bring the same care and accountability to how we spend resources as we would if it were our own business. And when there are challenges, we face them directly and collectively. Leaders in this organization are expected to bring that same mindset to their teams.
