What We Seek
We’re looking for a rising star in marketing who’s ready to play a hands-on role in bringing the Carnegie Learning brand and products to life across both digital and in-person experiences. As our Manager, Paid Media & Events, you’ll sit at the intersection of two of our most powerful marketing engines - our digital paid media program and our live event presence - ensuring they work together to tell a cohesive, inspiring story about how Carnegie Learning helps teachers unlock grade-level learning for every student.
In this role, you’ll manage our paid media agency while leading the execution of events and trade shows. You’ll collaborate closely with a fast-moving, supportive marketing team that values curiosity, creativity, and continuous learning. And along the way, you’ll be mentored by experienced marketing leaders who are invested in helping you grow your skills and your career.
This is a unique opportunity to stretch across two dynamic marketing disciplines. The role will challenge you to think strategically, execute with precision, and balance competing priorities — but you’ll emerge with deep expertise in both, a visible impact on our brand’s success, and the trust, respect, and appreciation of the entire team.
