Strategic Marketing & Communications Specialist

Ultimate Staffing Services
Sacramento, CA

Position Overview
We are seeking a temporary Strategic Marketing & Communications Specialist to provide strategic leadership and hands-on execution during an organizational restructuring period for our client. This is a contract role suited for an experienced marketing professional who can assess current efforts, build and manage campaigns, and personally execute communications work.

The ideal candidate is a "player-coach" - capable of strategic thinking and rolling up their sleeves to get work done. Graphic design support is available in-house; this role is focused on strategy, writing, and campaign leadership.

M-F, 8:00am - 4:30pm, $40-60/hr


What You'll Do
* Assess current marketing and communications efforts and recommend improvements
* Develop and manage marketing and communications plans aligned with organizational goals
* Write press releases, articles, website content, newsletter copy, and campaign messaging
* Build and manage a media contact list; identify and pursue earned media opportunities
* Lead marketing campaigns supporting membership growth, events, and brand awareness
* Direct in-house graphic design resources and coordinate with outside vendors as needed
* Develop and manage content calendars
* Support government affairs and workforce development communications as needed

What We're Looking For
* 5+ years of experience in marketing, communications, or a related field
* Demonstrated ability to develop strategy and personally execute campaigns
* Strong writing and content development skills across channels
* Experience with media relations and earned media outreach
* Comfortable working in a small-to-mid-size organization with lean resources
* Familiarity with the construction, real estate, or trade association sector is a plus
* Collaborative style with the ability to work independently

What This Role Is Not
This is not a graphic design role. This is not a membership sales or retention role - those responsibilities remain with the Membership Director. This position does not include budget management, staff supervision, or executive administrative functions.

All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, national origin, age, ancestry, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, marital status, disability, medical condition, genetic information, pregnancy, or military or veteran status. We consider all qualified applicants, including those with criminal histories, in a manner consistent with state and local laws, including the California Fair Chance Act, City of Los Angeles' Fair Chance Initiative for Hiring Ordinance, and Los Angeles County Fair Chance Ordinance.
