Coordinator, Marketing Content & Design

K1•Manhattan Beach, CA

35d•$75,000 - $90,000•Onsite

About The Position

K1 is seeking a Marketing Coordinator to join our team and help bring the firm's brand to life across every channel. Reporting directly to the Head of Marketing, this person will touch nearly every dimension of what we do – producing design-forward digital publications and microsites, developing portfolio company case studies, and creating polished, on-brand multimedia assets for an audience of founders, executives, and investors. This is not a role where you wait for direction. You'll contribute across the full marketing function and take on real ownership quickly – written, visual, and strategic. The right candidate is a natural storyteller with a design eye that shows in everything they touch – equally comfortable building a page in WordPress as crafting the narrative that lives on it, and energized by turning great content into something people actually want to read and look at.

Requirements

Bachelor's degree – first-generation college students are encouraged to apply
1–3 years of experience in marketing, design, communications, or a related field – experience at a creative agency, consumer brand, or in finance a plus
Strong design sensibility with hands-on experience in Canva or Adobe Creative Suite – you think visually and it shows in your work
Solid editorial instincts – able to understand, synthesize, and shape the written content that powers our website, publications, and reports
Analytical and organized – able to gather, structure, and synthesize large volumes of data into clear, compelling outputs
Web skills that match your ambition: whether you're comfortable in WordPress, fluent in HTML/CSS, or capable of light front-end development – let us know
Self-directed and accountable; you set a high bar for your own work and don't need to be reminded to meet it
A positive, team-first attitude – proactive, solutions-oriented, and no task beneath you
