About the Role
Our client-a fast-growing, nationally recognized leader in education and live events-is seeking a Marketing Operations Specialist to join their dynamic marketing team. This is a unique opportunity for a driven professional who thrives in fast-paced environments and wants to make a measurable impact on a business scaling rapidly.
Why This Role Is Exciting

• You'll be the strategic connector between internal teams and external agencies, ensuring campaigns run flawlessly and deliver results.
• You'll have a front-row seat to go-to-market strategy, live events, and digital funnels-perfect for someone who loves seeing ideas turn into execution.
• This is not a rigid, cookie-cutter role. If you're energized by ambiguity, problem-solving, and building structure where needed, you'll excel here.

What You'll Do

• Act as the air traffic controller for marketing operations-owning campaigns, funnels, landing pages, and CRM workflows (HubSpot).
• Partner with the CMO to translate strategy into execution, ensuring every initiative is optimized for success.
• Collaborate with media buying teams and agencies to fix broken pieces before they become costly issues.
• Streamline and optimize landing pages and conversion paths (why have 7-9 pages when you can make them work smarter?).
• Analyze performance data to understand what content and messaging resonate-and pivot quickly when they don't.
• Support go-to-market execution for live events, virtual offerings, and community initiatives.

What We're Looking For

• 3+ years of experience in marketing operations, growth marketing, or a related role.
• Exposure to event-driven marketing is a huge plus.
• Understanding of media buying and experience working with internal and external stakeholders.
• Highly detail-oriented, yet able to think strategically and see the big picture.
• Comfortable in chaotic, evolving environments-adaptable, not rigid.
• Hungry to learn, able to work autonomously, and excited to grow with the team.

The Environment
This is a high-energy, collaborative team that values creativity and results. You'll work closely with a CMO who is passionate about building a best-in-class marketing engine, alongside agencies and internal stakeholders who are equally committed to success.
