Marketing Coordinator careers

Marketing Coordinators are the workhorses behind an organisation’s marketing department — arranging online and print advertising, managing social media accounts, creating brochures and email campaigns. They often hire freelance writers, SEOs, and graphic designers to complete short assignments.

As a Marketing Coordinator you might be scheduling updates to the company’s social media accounts, reviewing the click-through rates from a recent email campaign, publishing blogs and eBooks, or scripting a promotional video. Marketing Coordinators leverage a wide range of software apps and usually have additional skills in graphic design, copywriting and web analytics.
