Digital Educator Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Far Bank Enterprises is the parent company of four of fly fishing's most respected brands: Sage, Redington, RIO Products, and Fly Water Travel. Headquartered in Seattle, Washington, we design, engineer, and sell complete fly-fishing solutions and experiences to anglers across the world: from first-time beginners to professional guides.

The Digital Marketing & Experience Manager leads Far Bank's digital presence across three brands - Sage, Redington, and RIO, while supporting Fly Water Travel. This is a brand-building and demand-generation role as much as it is a commercial one: the primary job is to ensure that when an angler discovers fly fishing, research gear, or looks for guidance online, Far Bank is the authoritative, trusted answer, wherever they ultimately choose to buy.

The role has four interconnected responsibilities: owning the site experience across farbank.com and brand properties; building the digital education infrastructure that makes Far Bank the most trusted resource in fly fishing; developing the digital marketing channels and performance marketing to generate demand that flows through the full dealer and direct network; and leading Far Bank's response to the shift toward AI-driven discovery, ensuring the brands are accurately cited, recommended, and represented wherever consumers are seeking answers. The role reports to the Brand Director and works closely with the CMO, Merchandising, and Technology teams.
