SSP Announces Search for Marketing and Operations Manager

SSP will be making some operational changes in the coming months. Our relationship with Kellen (an association management company) will be ending in early 2019 and we will be bringing on new partners to help manage SSP’s operations. As a result, SSP has created a new full-time staff position to manage SSP’s marketing/communications and the day-to-day administrative activities of the society.

The Marketing and Operations Manager works collaboratively with the SSP staff, board of directors, partners, and volunteers to manage the day-to-day activities of the society and develop and distribute communications and promotions using a multi-channel communication approach. This position provides administrative support and oversight for SSP programs, governance structure, technology solutions, and accounting functions, as well as develops content, coordinates, formulates, and implements comprehensive marketing campaigns and communications to align with member interests, using primarily digital media channels. SSP communicates regularly about its events, programs/services, member benefits, sponsorship and advertising opportunities, and society business and news.

Since SSP is a virtual organization with no brick and mortar headquarters, this position can telecommute from anywhere in the U.S. and work virtually with other SSP staff and contractors. Applicants must be able to maintain a safe, separate workspace in which they can complete their work that is free from distraction and limits accessibly by non-employees, and live in an area where they can obtain reliable internet service. 

NOTE: Due to the unique combination of skills required for this position, SSP will also consider two part-time contractors as an alternative. Please indicate in your letter of interest if you are interested in both the marketing and administrative aspects of the position as described in the Key Responsibilities in the job description on a full-time basis, or one or the other, on a part-time contractor basis.
