Jobs at Standard Communities (Now Hiring) — 2 open

The Marketing Specialist is a strategic doer who works as a direct extension of the marketing leader, moving initiatives from concept to final delivery across brand, communications, content, digital, and design. This person anticipates what the business needs before it is asked for, connects marketing work to company goals, and earns the confidence of leadership and colleagues alike.

This is a hands-on, high-ownership role. You will produce the work and own the thinking behind it — from designing a polished asset to shaping and revising messaging. It is a high-visibility position for someone who pairs creative instinct with analytical judgment, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and brings the sense of urgency and precision to make every deliverable land. The ideal candidate is versatile, wears many hats with ease, and can carry a project from the first idea to final delivery.

What You Can Expect to Do

Brand & Creative

• Design compelling materials for digital and print — social graphics, presentations, brochures, event collateral, and web assets
• Develop original design concepts from scratch and elevate the visual standard of every touchpoint
• Own brand consistency across all platforms, brands, and materials
• Produce polished, production-ready files and templates the team can rely on

Content & Communications

• Create and manage content across web, social media, and email campaigns
• Support executive and internal communications with clear, on-brand copy
• Monitor engagement, track performance, and translate metrics into recommendations

Projects, Materials & Operations

• Own marketing projects from inception to final delivery, managing timelines, stakeholders, and quality control
• Build executive- and investor-facing materials — presentations, one-pagers, and decks — with a sharp eye for narrative and polish
• Plan and support events end to end, from materials and signage to logistics and on-site execution
• Apply AI and marketing tools to work faster and smarter, while keeping human judgment on every decision that matters

Cross-Functional Partnership

• Work across departments and with leadership to source information, align on messaging, and move work forward
• Anticipate needs, flag opportunities, and bring solutions rather than waiting for direction

What You Should Have

• 3–5 years of experience in marketing, communications, graphic design, or a related field
• Design proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite and Canva
• Strong writing and content creation skills across social, web, and email
• Experience managing projects, deadlines, and multiple stakeholders at once
• A track record of owning both day-to-day production and higher-level strategy
• Comfort with social media management, analytics, and AI-enabled tools
• Real estate or financial services experience preferred

What You Should Be

• Analytical — turns metrics into insight and knows what is working and why
• Anticipatory — reads the business and moves before being asked
• Articulate — clear, affirmative messaging across every channel
• Collaborative — builds trust across departments and with leadership
• Creative — fresh ideas and a sharp eye for what makes work stand out
• Driven — brings urgency and follows through under tight timelines
• Meticulous — precise and detail-obsessed, accountable for quality
• Poised — a credible, polished presence with employees and leadership
• Resourceful — self-directed, turning ambiguity into finished work
