About Muros
Muros is a rapidly growing art activation agency, partnering with some of the best artists in the world to create first-of-its-kind experiences for brands and businesses. We specialize in street art and experiential activations, to create truly authentic and impactful connections between organizations and the communities they serve.

About The Role
In the Marketing Manager role you’ll help shape the future of our marketing function, testing and exploring new channels, messaging strategies and optimizing each along the way. You’ll play a really important role here at Muros as this is the first formal marketing position to come aboard. As such, you’ll have the ability to influence the future of our brand and how it’s viewed within the marketplace.

You’ll need to bring your experience across paid, owned and earned channels, a data driven mindset and more than a sprinkle of creativity. Your knowhow with respect to social (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn), digital (Ad-based, web, SEO/SEM), experiential, and PR will ensure your success—and ours.

We want problem solvers, organized planners and people who are passionate about great creative that drives results. You’re into a fast-paced environment, building things from scratch and aren’t afraid of the unknown. If you’re the type to get your hands dirty and brazenly take on new twists and turns, you could be a great fit for this role. Afterall, there is no playbook here … you’re gonna write it with support from our team.

• Experience with national level campaigns and target audience expertise
• Previous work experience in Marketing Strategy, B2B Marketing, Advertising Agency, or Brand Management
• Strategic thinker with a proven track record of successfully managing creative development and marketing programs that meet or exceed business objectives
• Actively leverage creative best practices across channels and know how to measure success (no fluffy stuff here!)
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
• Excellent collaborator with strong track record of managing agencies, vendors and/or partners
• Motivational and inspirational leader who can share a compelling vision, purpose, and direction that inspires others
• A curiosity to learn about all parts of the business and find ways Marketing can support various teams and functions

• You can work autonomously but enjoy working in a team setting
• You’re a creative soul at your core and you truly believe in the value—and power—of art.

Required

• You have decision-making skills worth bragging about
• Excellent problem solving skills and great examples to showcase it
• Comfortable working in an extremely fast paced and sometimes crazy start-up environment. You’re in this for the long haul and want to be part of the movement
• Proven ability to create and manage a 360 degree Marketing plan, from strategy to tactical execution

This role will be located in Chicago, IL.

Why You’ll Love Working Here
Mostly because we do really cool and impactful sh*t (that no one else is doing) … all while delivering great results. That’s a big part of it and we’re damn proud of it. You’ll also join Muros at an early stage of the company so you’ll have an incredible opportunity to work 1:1 with each of the Founders to help grow and shape the future of our organization.

Our team is passionate, fun and we get to work with some amazingly talented people. When you help bring your first 8000 sq. ft. mural to life and you see that ginormous masterpiece in front of you, you’ll find “results” take on a whole new meaning. There’s nothing like transforming an entire building or city block with a show stopping piece of artwork to get you fired up and ready to start your day again.

We also offer a flexible work schedule and opportunities to travel (if you’re into that sort of thing). Our business isn’t a 9-5 and admittedly requires flexibility so we try to flex with you. There are weekends and there are evenings here at Muros but we work hard to balance what we take with what we give.

We also offer a full benefits package, live in a cool West Loop space and did we mention we put badass art out into the world?? In short, we’re a fun, work hard/play hard start up that’s ready to take the world by storm and we’d love to find the right person to join our team!
