    • Collaborate with Product, Design, and Leadership to support campaigns and initiatives
    • Work with the CEO and CMO to translate strategic goals into actionable plans
    • Support fundraising, community-building, and partnership initiatives with targeted marketing

    • Ensure all content supports CTAs for:
      • mentors
      • mentees
      • donors
      • volunteers
    • Champion Wevise’s mission of supporting underserved communities in tech

    Accountability & Communication Expectations

    • Deliver weekly progress updates to the CMO
    • Maintain documentation of workflows, calendars, and processes
    • Communicate proactively about risks, delays, and resource needs
    • Foster a culture of transparency, reliability, and shared ownership

    What You’ll Bring

    • Experience managing marketing teams or cross-functional creative teams
    • Strong operational leadership and project management skills
