Content & Brand Execution

  • Coordinate development of marketing content, collateral, and messaging
  • Ensure consistency across campaigns, website, and sales materials
  • Track and manage all in-flight content and assets

Vendor & Project Management

  • Manage external vendors (agencies, freelancers, contractors)
  • Ensure deliverables are on time, on budget, and aligned to goals
  • Maintain documentation of vendor relationships, scope, and performance

Cross-Functional Alignment

  • Partner closely with Sales to ensure strong communication and feedback loops
  • Support leadership with insights on what’s working and where to improve
  • Participate in planning discussions and begin contributing to broader strategy

Qualifications

  • 5–8 years of marketing experience (real estate, utility, and/or B2B preferred)
  • Strong background in demand generation, digital marketing, or campaign execution
  • Experience working in platforms like Insightly or HubSpot
  • Comfortable owning both strategy (at a developing level) and execution (at a strong level)
  • Experience managing vendors or small project teams
  • Highly organized with strong follow-through and accountability
  • Eagerness to grow into a senior marketing leadership role

Key Success Metrics

  • Marketing-sourced and influenced pipeline
  • Measurable impact tied to revenue
  • On-time execution of campaigns and deliverables
  • Lead quality and Sales feedback
  • Improved reporting visibility and consistency

Why This Role is a Strong Growth Opportunity

  • Direct exposure to executive leadership and company strategy
  • Opportunity to build and shape the marketing function
  • Clear path to a more senior leadership role as the company grows
  • Ability to make a measurable impact on revenue

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
