About the role

Digital Marketing Manager (Player-Coach: Hands-On Creative + Team Leadership)

About

We are partnering with a leading, well-established organization in the insurance space to hire a Digital Marketing Manager.
This is a high-impact, fully in-office role for a hands-on creative leader who actively produces work—not just directs it.
If you primarily manage agencies or focus on strategy without executing design or production work yourself, this role is not a fit.

Compensation

  • $130,000 - $170,000 base salary (depending on experience)
  • Full-time, permanent
  • Fully in-office (no remote or hybrid)

What You’ll Do

Hands-On Creative Production (50-60% of role)

  • Personally design and produce digital and print marketing assets daily
  • Create videos, graphics, presentations, and collateral using Adobe Creative Cloud (Premiere, Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign)
  • Own projects end-to-end: concept → design → production → final delivery
  • Ensure all creative meets brand standards and business objectives

Digital Marketing Execution (20-30%)

  • Manage and update website content via CMS (Sitecore or similar)
  • Build and deploy email campaigns (Pardot or similar)
  • Optimize user experience and digital performance across channels

Leadership & Team Management (20%)

  • Lead and mentor a small internal creative/marketing team
  • Act as a working manager (you will produce work alongside your team)
  • Manage timelines, priorities, and cross-functional stakeholders

Analytics & Optimization

  • Track campaign performance using Salesforce and marketing tools
  • Use data to refine creative, messaging, and campaign effectiveness

Must-Have Requirements (Non-Negotiable)

  • 7-10+ years of experience in hands-on creative + digital marketing roles
  • Advanced, daily-use expertise in Adobe Creative Cloud (you must currently design/produce work yourself)
  • Strong print AND digital production experience
  • Experience with CMS platforms (Sitecore or similar)
  • Email marketing platform experience (Pardot or similar)
  • Salesforce or similar for campaign tracking
  • Proven experience managing a team while remaining hands-on
  • Portfolio required (must include examples you personally created)

This Role Is NOT For

  • Pure people managers who do not execute creative work
  • Strategists who rely on agencies or external designers
  • Candidates without a current, hands-on design/production portfolio

What Sets You Apart

  • True “player-coach” mindset—you lead by doing
  • Equal strength in creative execution and marketing strategy
  • High attention to detail and strong organizational skills
  • Comfortable in a fast-paced, highly collaborative, in-office environment

Education

Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Communications, Graphic Design, or related field

Important

  • This is a fully in-office role (no remote/hybrid)
  • Hands-on Adobe Creative Cloud expertise is required—this is a core, daily responsibility

To Apply

Apply via LinkedIn or submit your resume and portfolio of work you personally created.
