140 Proof Jobs » Manager of Creative Marketing(NYC)

Are you a writer who can design, or a designer who can write? Are you knowledgeable about digital advertising and eager to put your skills to work helping grow the brand of the company that invented social media advertising?

140 Proof is looking for you.

Working directly with our SVP of Marketing in our New York office, you will help shape our market-facing communications, designing sales materials, keeping our web site current, writing for our blog and newsletters, concepting and creating infographics, developing and delivering swag – all to help tell the story of 140 Proof. You’ll maintain our Facebook and other pages on social networks and build our profile through excellent content and advertising.

We are looking for someone who can go from the conceptual to the tactical, who can move between Photoshop, After Effects, MailChimp and other tools of the trade. This is a roll up your sleeves job for someone who wants to make a difference in the startup world.

We promise you an interesting and creative job in which to grow your knowledge and experience.
