Marketing Specialist

About the role

Nielson Construction is hiring a Marketing Specialist to join our brand and growth team as a true hybrid contributor: roughly half graphic designer, half marketing generalist. No two weeks look the same — one day you're designing a listing flyer for our internal real estate team, the next you're coordinating an ad buy with a media vendor, writing a press mention, or helping plan a community event. This role is based within Nielson Construction and also supports other business lines across Nielson Companies, including our in-house real estate team. This role reports directly to the Head of Brand & Growth and will be the first hire into a one-person marketing function — meaning real ownership, real variety, and real growth as the department expands. Design experience is the priority for this hire. A solid design portfolio and at least 3 years of professional experience are required. The marketing, project management, and industry-specific pieces of this role can be trained — a sharp designer who is eager to grow into the marketing side is exactly who we're looking for.

Please upload your design portfolio along with your application.
