  • Webinar Support: Assist in the production of webinars and virtual events, managing the technical setup and follow-up email journeys.

Team Operations

  • Project Tracking: Maintain the marketing team’s project management board (JIRA) ensuring deadlines are visible and administrative bottlenecks are identified early.
  • Vendor Coordination: Liaise with external printers, swag vendors, and agencies to ensure projects are delivered on time and within budget.

Qualifications

  • Experience: 2 years of experience in marketing or communications.
  • Exceptional Writing: Strong writing and proofreading skills with an eagle eye for detail, you catch the typos that everyone else misses.
  • Organizational Ninja: You are someone who finds deep satisfaction in a well-organized spreadsheet or project board; you can manage multiple moving parts without breaking a sweat.
  • Communication: Ability to work effectively with diverse stakeholders, from R&D scientists to legal counsel and external vendors.
  • Technical Savvy: Proficiency with (or a hunger to learn) tools like HubSpot, Canva, project management software, and the Microsoft Office/Google Workspace suites.
  • AI Proficiency: Practical experience using AI tools.
  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Communications, English, or a related field.

Note to Applicants: At Helix, we value drive and a growth mindset. If you are early in your career but have a "clear ability to learn quickly, adapt, and grow," please apply. We are looking for someone who wants to learn the genomics industry from the ground up.
