About The Position

We are looking for a Marketing Manager to build and lead a modern marketing function at Hoffman Hydronics. This is not an administrative support role; it is a strategic and hands‑on position for someone who wants to shape how an entire market perceives our company.

You will be responsible for defining our brand voice, building a unified message about who we are, and making sure that message shows up consistently across our website, social media, email, events, and sales tools. Your work will help prospective customers trust us, prospective employees want to join us, and prospective vendor partners see us as their preferred representative.

You will collaborate closely with leadership and the sales team to align marketing with business development and revenue goals, while still rolling up your sleeves to create and ship great content.

• Strong understanding of B2B digital marketing, including websites, SEO basics, email marketing, and social media best practices.
• Comfortable using marketing automation, CRM, and analytics tools to make data‑informed decisions.

• Hands-on experience using AI tools to support marketing efforts (content creation, research, campaign optimization, or workflow automation), with the ability to apply them thoughtfully in a B2B environment.
• Proven experience developing and analyzing market data to drive marketing strategy, positioning, and campaign decisions in a B2B environment.
