Marketing Manager

Unify America is looking for a savvy, get-things-done Marketing Manager to help grow our Civic Gym program in the higher education space. This role is perfect for someone who loves turning strategy into execution: building smart campaigns, coordinating across teams, and delivering clean, persuasive content that moves the needle.

About Unify America

Founded in 2020, Unify America is a nonpartisan, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization on a mission to replace political fighting with collaborative problem solving.

Delivering evidence-based, interactive, and impactful experiences that encourage constructive conversations across political ideologies and backgrounds, we bring Americans together to build and exercise their civic muscles.

About the Civic Gym

Unify America’s Civic Gym is the nation’s only intercollegiate platform of its kind—an innovative, scalable initiative that equips college students with civic and leadership skills through real-world, virtual experiences. The Civic Gym is powered by two national, virtual dialogue programs—the Unify Challenge and the Deep Dive—which foster cross-partisan conversations, bridge divides, and build essential civic preparedness.

Since 2021, our Civic Gym platform has had a significant impact on hundreds of campuses of all shapes and sizes, including two-year, four-year, private, public, military, HBCUs, and faith-based institutions. In just four years, our programming has reached 30,000+ students across 48 states. This year, for the first time, we are engaging educational institutions through a paid subscription model, which will provide us with the resources to sustain and scale the program much more quickly.

Position Overview

As our presence in higher education expands, we are seeking a Marketing Manager who can effectively translate our strategic vision into clear, actionable communications. This role involves developing high-quality materials that support program adoption and make Civic Gym offerings visible and compelling. It is a hands-on position focused on execution, ideal for a sharp operator who can manage details while maintaining a clear view of the big picture. The Marketing Manager will collaborate closely with the Partnerships and Engagement teams to create and evolve outreach content, help articulate our value to higher education stakeholders, and enable broader adoption of our programs.

    • Unify America’s mission involves bridging divides across political and cultural differences. Our marketing materials need to be very strategically party/ideology neutral - which means that you’ll have to be very good at examining your own political biases and making sure your word choices aren’t influenced by them.
