About the Company

We're looking for a Digital Marketing Manager to take full ownership of social media and paid advertising for a premier debate and speech education company serving students across Greater China and Southeast Asia. You will develop and execute content strategy, design graphics in Canva, coordinate with in-house video and design staff, run paid campaigns on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, and drive the inquiry volume that fills enrollment. This is an end-to-end ownership role, not a task-execution role. You will identify opportunities, chase down content from coaches and staff, set your own priorities, and build systems that produce consistent results without waiting to be told what to do next. The company has strong programs, a talented in-house creative team, and a clear market. What it needs is someone who can translate that into digital engagement and measurable inquiries across the Asian education market. If you thrive on autonomy, take pride in building things from scratch, and are motivated by seeing your work drive real enrollment conversions, this role is a strong fit. Why You'll Want to Join

  • ● A short Loom video (1 to 2 minutes) introducing yourself, describing your experience marketing to Asian education audiences, and walking through one campaign or content initiative you owned end to end and the results it produced
  • ● Only candidates who submit both a portfolio and Loom video will be moved to the next step of the hiring process.
  • ● If you are a self-directed digital marketer who understands the Asian education market, can build systems that generate consistent inquiries, and want full ownership over strategy and execution for a brand with a strong product and a clear market, this role gives you the autonomy and the direct impact to do your best work.
