Description
Great role for communications professionals seeking new opportunities in a unique field with a strong, community-based work culture!
The Markens Group is hiring a Communications Coordinator to join our team of detail-oriented, flexible high-achievers! We’re an association management company that helps national and local trade associations, professional societies, and other member organizations build community and achieve their goals.

You are currently in a communications role, and maybe you’re a little bored or disengaged, or you feel your suggestions and work are not taken seriously or appreciated. You probably feel you’re not using more than 50% of your capability to make an impact. Your co-workers and the company's culture may not be what you would call a fun and supportive workplace.
Additionally
Our environment is high-energy, fast-paced, quirky, and has a good sense of humor. TMG has a no-blame culture; we care about improving and getting the job done. We have a strong team dynamic steered by our fundamental behaviors. We cultivate an atmosphere where teammates are open to learning, growing, and receiving constructive criticism. We’re supporting multiple projects for a wide variety of member-driven organizations concurrently. That means that priorities may shift with little notice, and we’ll look for you to be flexible while maintaining attention to detail and composure.
We care about the community, and every employee can volunteer up to eight hours per month during work time. We have a strong in-person office culture and the ability to work up to two days per week from home based on manager discretion. We’re also certified as a Great Place to Work—and it shows!
Responsibilities
The salary range for this role is $23 - $25 an hour. Rates of pay within this range will be commensurate with experience and based on factors such as experience and educational qualifications.
We offer a comprehensive benefits package, including paid time off, health insurance, dental insurance, retirement, life insurance, and more.
