 SUMMARY

We are looking for a smart, experienced, and motivated Marketing Coordinator to join our Columbus team.

The Marketing Coordinator is responsible for executing marketing strategies, developing social content, coordinating various projects, and ensuring seamless communication between internal teams and external partners.

This is a hybrid work-from-home/office position (in-office attendance is required on Tuesdays & Thursdays), and the candidate must live near Columbus, Ohio.

At The Shipyard, we know that it's your unique talents, backgrounds, and perspectives that make you who you are, just like our team, who come from various career paths and experiences. We believe we can't be truly diverse without bringing your most authentic self to the agency.
