Is This Role For You?
- You've managed multi-channel campaigns (email, social, paid, organic) at scale with real conversion data to show
- You live and breathe CRM + marketing automation platforms and know how to build nurture sequences that convert
- You're comfortable translating analytics into strategy: dashboards, KPIs, A/B testing, and monthly reporting are your language
- You thrive in cross-functional environments where you're the bridge between creative, tech, and enrollment/sales teams
- You're energized by enrollment/education marketing or B2C acquisition funnels with clear, measurable outcomes
- You need remote flexibility-this is 100% on-site in Montgomery, AL with no hybrid option
- You're a specialist in one channel (e.g., only social or only paid ads) without broad digital marketing experience
