You’ll collaborate closely with our SEO, social, web, creative, and paid media specialists to deliver best-in-class solutions across both digital and traditional channels.

This is a highly visible role with opportunities to influence agency direction and contribute to the success of our clients and our team.

• Partner with internal teams and external vendors to execute campaigns in SEM, paid and organic social, email marketing, OTT, reputation management, and more.
• Monitor performance, analyze ROI, and recommend adjustments to improve campaign results.
• Manage budgets, timelines, and profitability across projects.
• Identify upsell opportunities and expand client relationships.
• Provide strategic insight into the residential energy industry, becoming a trusted expert for your clients.
• Collaborate with — and at times lead — internal teams to ensure successful execution.
• Represent Warm Thoughts at regional and national industry events as needed.

• 5–10 years of experience in an agency or client-side marketing role, with a strong digital focus.
• Demonstrated success managing complex client accounts and delivering measurable results.

• Proven ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously and work collaboratively across teams.
• Leadership experience or aptitude — able to guide, influence, and occasionally direct cross-functional teams.
• Knowledge of the residential energy industry (renewables, utilities, propane/oil, HVAC) is a plus but not required.
• Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.
• 20 days PTO to start, plus health insurance options, 401K with company match, and more.
