Marketing Strategist

Why This Role Matters

Our clients don’t just need fragmented marketing services; they need consistency, direction, and trust. At Dogwood Media Solutions, our Marketing Strategists are the engines that keep client success running. This is a high-ownership, client-facing role for someone who thrives on clarity, execution, and communication.

In a Typical Agency, the Work You Do Would Be Split Across Multiple Departments

• The Account Manager (Client-Facing Leader)
• The Constant Innovator (Strategic Adaptor)
• The Project Manager & Performance Reporter
• The Client Advocate & PR Storyteller

What You’ll Do (And How We Team Up)

• Execute Directly: Manage social media, content marketing, and public relations (PR) for your assigned accounts.
• Collaborate on Ads & Tech: Partner with our Web Development team (who executes technical SEO) and our Ad Specialist (who handles search and retargeting placements).
• You will review and present their monthly reports to your clients.
• Direct Creative Assets: Guide our graphic designers to ensure all visuals align perfectly with your client's brand strategy and goals.

What This Role Does Not Include

• Cold calling, sales, or proposal pricing
• Paid ad placement and backend campaign building
• Managing internal staff as a direct report

The Core Qualities You Must Have

• Exceptional Communication: You love writing, speak with confidence, and can craft a clear, professional email or lead a meeting without breaking a sweat.
• Active Listening & Empathy: You can listen to a client's problem, truly understand what they need, and champion their voice internally to our team.
• The "Hustle" Mindset: You are self-motivated, eager to learn new things quickly, and ready to figure out a solution when things change.
• An Adaptable Brain: You aren't afraid of technology or industry shifts. You view tools like AI as assets that help you work smarter and faster.
• Natural Organization: You can direct the work of others respectfully, keep track of multiple deadlines, and make sure nothing drops through the cracks.

Our Culture

• Where Work Gets Done Right (And We Have Fun Doing It)
• We take immense pride in our work ethic and our high standards.
• We love to celebrate our hard work.
• We have a stocked kitchen with coffee, sodas, and snacks.

• Company-paid health, dental, and vision insurance.
• 4% 401(k) match.
