Marketing Manager

On Board Experiential • Los Angeles, CA

7h • $80,000 - $110,000 • Hybrid

About The Position

The Marketing Manager is the engine behind OBE's day-to-day marketing output — a creative, hands-on doer with sharp instincts, high standards, and a genuine love for brand storytelling. Reporting to the Senior Brand Marketing Director, this role is for the marketer who wants to own it end-to-end: from strategy to execution, copy to content, data to design. The ideal candidate loves visual storytelling and all things brand marketing. They are an active consumer of experiences and enjoy curating content in both their personal and professional lives. They are proactive, detail-obsessed, and equally comfortable doing research and writing copy as they are crafting content and pulling analytics.

This is a role for someone who is hungry to learn, eager to make their mark, and excited by the idea of helping shape how one of the most dynamic experiential agencies in the country shows up in the world. If you’re the person who notices great brand work in the wild, screenshots campaigns for inspo, and genuinely geeks out over a well-crafted caption — we want to hear from you.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in marketing, communications, business administration, or related field preferred.

• Strong project management abilities — highly organized, detail-oriented, and able to manage multiple priorities simultaneously.
• Data-driven mindset with comfort pulling and interpreting marketing analytics across key platforms.
• Creative thinker with a genuine eye for design and visual storytelling.
• Collaborative and professional across all levels of an agency — a team player who can also operate independently.
• Proficient in Keynote, Google Suite and Microsoft Office; strong command of presentation design.
• Light graphic design experience with Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator) — able to create or adapt assets independently without always relying on the creative team.

• High energy and flexibility to work non-traditional hours as deadlines require.
• Willingness to work a hybrid schedule (up to 3 days in office) and travel up to 50% of the time
• Natural curiosity — a drive to stay current, keep learning, and bring fresh ideas to the table.

Nice To Haves

• Photography experience and motion graphic design skills an additional plus.
• ClickUp proficiency preferred — experience using ClickUp or a similar project management platform to manage tasks, timelines, and cross-functional workflows.
• Curiosity and experience with AI a plus — hands-on experience with AI tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, or similar is a bonus, as is an interest in testing and applying marketing-related AI solutions and automations.
