Marketing Manager

Kinekt / Cirrus Cycles
Full-time
Remote friendly (Bellingham, WA)
United States
$62,000 - $70,000 USD yearly
Cirrus Cycles / Kinekt USA is in search of a cycling geek to lead our marketing team. This is a person who has experience in marketing strategy, customer focused content creation, and digital campaign management.

The ideal candidate is curious, creative, collaborative, detail-oriented, and while it is imperative to have a strong marketing background, it is equally important to be inquisitive and maybe a bit crazy!

Cirrus Cycles was launched in 2011 by two passionate cyclists who wanted to make the connection between a rider and their bicycle more comfortable. The original product was a suspension seatpost and that technology story carries through to today. We’ve since grown to offer several variations on the original seatpost, suspension stems and other accessories to help make your riding experience more enjoyable. β€œComfort in Motion” is our tagline and the lens through which we view all new product ideas. Most everything is designed and tested in our Bellingham, WA home and a significant portion of our manufacturing still happens in our shop.

This position will work closely with everyone on our team (we are a small but fun bunch) and will be responsible for all external brand communication, website design and management and will be the company liaison to all outside marketing and PR related contractors. This position will have a seat on our leadership team, helping navigate the day-to-day as well as strategic thinking for our future.
