THE OPPORTUNITY

Almond Clear is a fast-growing DTC skincare brand that helps people feel confident and

free in their skin through simple, effective skincare powered by mandelic acid. Our

products make a real difference in people's lives. Almond Clear is an omnichannel brand

with sales across TikTok Shop, Amazon, and Shopify. The founder has a clear vision for the

brand’s mission and growth trajectory.

The Marketing Manager is a new role for Almond Clear, so you’ll be building the needed

systems, infrastructure, processes, and workflows. In addition to building and managing

the marketing operational engine, this role requires hands-on content support: you will

create and edit marketing assets, brief agencies, and coordinate assets across campaigns

and projects. You must be comfortable wearing many hats.

We need someone who has already done this work and is ready to take ownership from

day one. If you are energized by walking into a high-growth brand with beautiful,

well-defined branding, rolling up your sleeves, and building something that didn't exist

before, this is a role for you.

• Project manage content creator to deliver monthly campaigns from brief to publish. Own the timeline and drive the delivery of content by each person. Future state: Review and approve campaigns

• Marketing calendar Maintain the single source of truth for all marketing activity. Develop and manage a calendar visible to all stakeholders in company
• Project Management Manage and create content to support deliverables of one off projects as needed

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

First 30 days You are learning the brand, the product, and the current workflow. You’ll

understand the current campaign schedule, develop relationships with

contractors and agencies, and understand where to go for needed assets.

over projects from the Founder or Operations and can manage projects from

start to finish.

90 days You are developing SOPs where you see needed and have built trust with the

involvement in day-to-day marketing activities is minimal, mostly for approval

and strategy.

WHO YOU ARE

happen, and people describe you as a “go-getter” and “independent problem-solver.” You
