Special Projects Lead, Marketing & Business Development
Shape strategy. Tell powerful stories. Win meaningful work.
If you’re a senior marketing professional who loves turning ideas into impact and thrives in fast-paced, relationship-driven environments, this role was designed with you in mind.
As a Special Projects Lead, you’ll sit at the intersection of strategy, storytelling, and business development. You’ll partner closely with senior leadership to drive high-visibility pursuits, craft compelling narratives, and elevate how the organization shows up in the marketplace. Your work will directly influence growth, reputation, and long-term success.
This is an opportunity to lead, not just execute – to bring your experience, creativity, and judgment to the table and be trusted to make things happen.
What You’ll Do
- Lead direct-to-client pursuits that position the organization to win work
- Develop persuasive, well-written content for print and digital platforms
- Translate complex technical information into clear, compelling marketing collateral
- Prepare interview and presentation materials that support business development efforts
- Collaborate with senior leaders on marketing strategy and special initiatives
- Support participation in relevant client organizations and industry associations
What You Bring – Experience & Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in marketing, communications, public relations, journalism, or a related field
- 10+ years of progressive marketing experience with demonstrated results
- Experience in professional services or service-based industries strongly preferred
- Exceptional writing, editing, and verbal communication skills
- Strong design sensibility, including typography and layout, with openness to feedback
- Proven ability to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines with confidence
- Proficiency in Adobe Creative Cloud (InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop) and Microsoft applications
- A robust portfolio showcasing creative, strategic marketing work across platforms
How You Show Up
- Collaborative, proactive, and relationship-oriented
- Comfortable working with senior leaders and cross-functional teams
- Organized, self-motivated, and accountable
- Thoughtful, fiscally responsible, and detail-oriented
- Dependable and persuasive, with strong follow-through
- A problem-solver who sees obstacles as opportunities
- Creative, adaptable, and known for a “can-do” attitude
Why This Role Stands Out
- High visibility and direct access to decision-makers
- Meaningful influence on strategy, positioning, and growth
- A team-oriented environment that values professionalism, integrity, and initiative
- The chance to apply your experience in a role that truly benefits from senior-level thinking
