Job Description

We're looking for a creative, strategic, and mission-driven Marketing & Communications Specialist to help tell those stories, strengthen our brand, and expand our impact throughout the communities.

At the Opportunity Center- Easterseals, we serve youth and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities through employment supports, life-skills development, youth transition programming, and community engagement opportunities. Every story you tell and every campaign you create helps advance opportunities, inclusion, and belonging for the people we serve.

This isn't a role where you'll be managing a single campaign or posting on social media all day. You'll serve as the marketing professional for a nonprofit organization, shaping how our community experiences the Opportunity Center- Easterseals while supporting fundraising, recruitment, program growth, donor engagement, and organizational communications.

If you're excited about combining purpose-driven work with modern marketing strategy, we'd love to meet you!

Make a Meaningful Impact

Your work will directly support individuals with disabilities and the families who love them. Every campaign, story, event, and communication helps advance a mission that changes lives.

Own the Marketing Function

You'll have the opportunity to influence strategy, brand development, content, digital communications, fundraising campaigns, events, and community engagement.

Work Across Multiple Initiatives

No two days are the same. You'll support employment programs, life skills training, youth transition services, fundraising events, donor engagement, and organizational growth initiatives.

What You'll Do

• Lead organization-wide marketing and communications initiatives
• Develop and execute integrated marketing campaigns
• Manage website, social media, email marketing, and digital communications
• Create compelling stories, videos, graphics, and content that inspire engagement
• Support fundraising campaigns, donor communications, and special events
• Build community awareness and strengthen brand recognition
• Collaborate with leadership and program teams to ensure consistent messaging

Qualifications:

We're seeking someone who combines creativity with strategy and can move comfortably between big-picture planning and hands-on execution. Successful candidates will typically have:

• Bachelor's degree in Marketing, Communications, Public Relations, or a related field
• Three or more years of marketing and communications experience
• Experience managing digital marketing campaigns and content strategies
• Strong writing, editing, and proofreading skills with the ability to develop clear communications for diverse technical and non-technical audiences.
• Strong attention to detail, judgment, and ability to adapt messaging and materials for different audiences and markets.
• Experience with social media management, email marketing, and website content management
• Excellent project management and organizational skills
• A collaborative mindset and passion for mission-driven work
• Nonprofit experience is helpful but not required.

Preferred Experience

• Fundraising and donor communications
• Event marketing and promotion
• Google Ads and Google Analytics
• Marketing automation platforms
  
• Graphic design and multimedia production
• Accessibility and inclusive communication practices

Compensation and Benefits Package:

• Targeted base salary: $45k - $55k per year, based on experience and qualifications, plus benefits and bonuses.
• 100% paid health insurance for single coverage; 75% paid health insurance for family coverage.
• Benefits include the following but are not limited to health, dental, vision, life and disability insurance.
• The Opportunity Center- Easterseals has a 403(b) plan with discretionary employer match and contributions.
• You will be eligible for 12 days of Annual Leave per year (accrued in accordance with policies) and 10 days of Sick Leave. Leave is in addition to 14 company designated holidays.
