Are you a marketing communications professional who likes geographic flexibility and is tired of a somewhat unfulfilling existence at a big agency or lumbering within the narrow confines of corporate America? Perhaps you’re looking for a company with a progressive culture that values diverse perspectives and truly wants you to excel, grow and enjoy your day-to-day work?
Elasticity is searching for a detail oriented Brand Manager / Client Strategist who can work hand-in-hand with clients, lead and manage dynamic marketing communications programs, has 4 – 6 years experience (no, seriously) working with organizational leaders to help shape brands, can manage diverse teams and enjoys client service.
But here’s the honest truth about this role: If you enjoy consistency and constant hand-holding, it’s not for you. Each day will bring a different set of challenges and we need you to be a self-starter. One day you may be advising a client and the next you may be presenting concepts, the following week you may be dressed in a chicken suit, sitting in an Arby’s parking lot eating curly fries and talking about influencer strategies for barbecue, or in a conference room brainstorming tactics to get Americans to wear masks. Our team is multifaceted, never bored and smells semi-terrific at most times.
