This opportunity is for someone who enjoys learning technical products, organizing information, building presentations, analyzing market data, and helping a commercial team make smarter business decisions.
We're representing an established manufacturer whose products support military and industrial applications. The hiring manager isn't looking for someone who already knows everything about the industry. They're looking for a bright, curious professional who learns quickly, asks good questions, and wants to build a long-term career in strategic marketing.
You'll work directly with an experienced marketing leader and gain exposure to product management, business strategy, market intelligence, sales support, and customer engagement.
What you'll be doing:
• Collecting and organizing market intelligence and competitive information
• Developing presentations and commercial support materials
• Working with sales, operations, product development, and leadership teams
• Helping identify market trends and customer opportunities
• Supporting new product initiatives
• Attending industry conferences, customer meetings, and trade shows
• Learning how strategic marketing influences product growth and business decisions
We're interested in people who have:
• Approximately 2-5 years of professional experience
• Strong analytical, communication, and organizational skills
• Experience working with manufactured products, industrial materials, engineered products, or similar technical markets
• Exposure to government, defense, aerospace, military, or industrial manufacturing is a plus
• Excellent PowerPoint, Excel, and presentation skills
• The ability to manage multiple priorities while collaborating across departments
This is an outstanding opportunity for someone early in their marketing career who wants to develop under strong mentorship instead of being expected to already have all the answers.
