Pittsburgh, PA | In person, Penn Hills headquarters | 1 opening

Are you the person who makes sure things actually get done, notices details other people miss, and gets excited about protecting a brand you believe in? We are hiring our first in-house Branding Coordinator to own execution across marketing, content, events, and studio operations.

This team member takes our founder's vision and makes it happen in the world. Not the strategist. The doer. The integrator for the brand.

What You Will Do

• Take our founder's raw videos and multiply them into finished content: clips, blogs, social posts, graphics
• Manage a rolling content calendar that stays full a year out
• Enhance the branding, marketing execution, and content around our events: monthly client seminars, TeachPassion Huddles, TeachPassion Summit, Beratung University, Oktoberfest, Santa event, TeachPassion Halftime, mini camps
• Coordinate vendors for print, signage, decals, business cards, and event collateral
• Steward our physical brand: lobby TVs, digital signage, Hall of Vision, vinyl decals
• Own the LPL compliance workflow for our content
• Bring executional ideas about how to make things better; leave the strategic direction to us

A NOTE ON OUR BRAND

At Beratung, we are obsessed with branding, not marketing. Marketing is sales and lead generation, and that is not how we grow. Our clients find us because our brand is unmistakable, and it is unmistakable because we treat it as a quality standard, not a look.

We are borderline obsessive about it. Our logo goes on just about everything. Our copy tells our own story in our own voice, not the polished corporate voice every other financial firm uses. We are Yinzers, we are faith-driven, and we are team-forward, and every asset we ship reflects it. Our culture is different from every other financial firm in Pittsburgh, and our brand is how we show that difference to the world.

Everyone at Beratung is proud of the brand because the brand is how we connect with our clients and our community. If you get energized by protecting a standard others are willing to let slip, this is your seat. If brand discipline sounds excessive, this is not.

Above all, the single most important thing we need from you is that you get the Look, Tone, and Feel of our brand. Everything else, we can teach.

Ideal Candidates Should Expect

• A fast paced environment with multiple projects going on across many domains at once
• Deep, detailed work where brand accuracy matters more than speed
• Adherence to our brand and content standards is non negotiable
• Independent execution: you read context, take initiative, and close loops without being told
• Present at events, including some evenings and weekends
• A role where you steward the brand more than star in the content
• A learning curve early, with materials we will provide (Story Brand by Donald Miller, Know What You're For by Jeff Henderson)

Requirements

• Real, hands on video editing ability (Adobe Premiere, CapCut, DaVinci Resolve, or similar; expert level not required)

• Strong written English for proofreading and polish
• Confident troubleshooting studio A/V equipment
• Meticulous attention to detail and follow through

SALARY

Base salary range: $40,000 to $60,000, based on skills and experience. Additional bonus eligible based on team performance.

Our firm values radical transparency. Too many firms in our profession promise you a bigger salary down the road, and you end up feeling lied to. That is why we built our salary model and published it. On our website you can see a minimum salary level based on your years with the firm, before you ever apply. It is a floor, not a ceiling. Our team members consistently earn more than the model based on the skills they develop.

THE COMPANY, BERATUNG ADVISORS

We are not your typical financial firm, and we never want to be. Beratung Advisors is a faith-based, people first company on a mission to change lives through financial planning. We believe in honoring others, doing life together, and getting 1% better every day. Our why is to educate and empower people so that they can pursue their goals and live a fulfilling life.

WHY WORK WITH US

• Faith-based and family oriented
• Flexible work hours with real-life balance
• Visionary leadership focused on having a community impact
• Financial planning first, investments second
• Your effort is seen, acknowledged, and appreciated
• We evolve fast, and we do not live in the status quo
• You are not a cog in the machine. We are the machine.

WHO YOU WILL BECOME

Most firms hire a marketing coordinator to schedule social posts and file compliance requests. We are hiring one to grow into something much bigger.

You will not be posting on LinkedIn forever. As this role grows, we plan to build a department around you. You will be managing social media content creators, video producers, and event support. Our vision is a studio buzzing every week: every financial planner recording, our own podcast running, and eventually renting the studio out to other Pittsburgh companies that want to use what we built.

We are also building out other brands. TeachPassion Summit and TeachPassion Leadership are already live. As we grow into the 412 Vision, our long-term plan for how Beratung serves Pittsburgh across financial planning, education, faith, and community, you grow with it. Each new brand needs a steward, and the person who has been running the machine gets first shot at what comes next.

There is a defined growth path here, and you own it. We are betting on you as much as you are betting on us.

WHO YOU WILL WORK WITH

Greg Furer, CFP®, Founder and Visionary. He owns the vision and the copy. He records the videos. He writes the blogs. He supplies the ideas. Your job is to make what he creates reach the world well.

Timothy Sparks, Integrator. Runs the firm day to day. He leads, manages, and holds the team accountable, and he will be your direct manager.

OUR CORE VALUES

• TOGETHER: We do life together as a family.
