Pathfinders, a full-service integrated marketing agency, is seeking a Marketing Lead who can bring clarity, momentum, and ownership to how we show up as a brand. In this role, you won’t just support marketing efforts; you’ll help shape how our story is told, translate strategy into execution, and ensure our work connects with the audiences we’re trying to reach.
You’ll operate across planning, content, campaigns, and systems, building and executing marketing efforts that support both brand visibility and business growth. This includes creating high-quality content, developing campaigns, maintaining marketing systems, and supporting sales efforts through materials like case studies, decks, and proposals. You’ll partner closely with leadership, creative, digital, and growth teams to ensure our marketing is consistent, effective, and aligned with where we’re going.
This role is a great fit for someone who enjoys owning the work from start to finish. You’re comfortable building and publishing content yourself, working inside tools like HubSpot or WordPress, and stepping back to evaluate what’s working and what needs to change. You bring structure to ambiguity, take initiative without waiting for direction, and balance creativity with clear, audience-focused thinking. In your application, tell us about a time you had to shift messaging away from what a company wanted to say to what the audience actually needed to hear. We’re looking for someone who can bring both judgment and execution to how we tell the Pathfinders story.
You might be a great fit if you:
- We > Me: You believe great work is a team sport. You give credit generously, assume positive intent, and celebrate shared wins.
- Own the Outcome: You don’t just check boxes. You make sure the work connects to the bigger goal and moves projects forward.
- Keep Growing: You stay curious, adapt quickly when things change, and see every challenge as a chance to get better.
- Set the Tone: You bring energy and clarity into every conversation. Even when things get tough, you make work feel doable, not draining.
