Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Design and produce marketing materials using Canva and Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro) for digital and print campaigns.
  • Invent and ship high-impact visual content that advances Roadrunner as the Category of One—graphics, sales collateral, social assets, landing-page visuals, event materials, and campaign creative.
  • Create video and photo content. Appear on camera when needed and direct shoots that capture authentic customer stories, owner-operator voices, and company culture.
  • Support Roadrunner’s LinkedIn and social presence with content that is sharp, human, and on-brand—not generic freight marketing.
  • Shape how the brand shows up across digital, physical, and experiential touchpoints so every interaction reinforces that Roadrunner is leading the way.
  • Coordinate with vendors, internal stakeholders, sales, talent acquisition, and the marketing team to execute multi-channel campaigns on time.
  • Support integrated campaigns across digital, social, email, content, events, and emerging channels that drive awareness, pipeline, and talent outcomes.
  • Treat every campaign as an experiment. Track what shipped, what worked, and what needs to change. Document what you learn.
  • Produce materials and communications for strategic customer accounts based on direction from leadership and the Marketing Manager.
  • Manage and update the website CMS so content is accurate, optimized, and user-friendly.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Communications, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
  • Proven experience in a marketing or related creative role, with a portfolio that shows you can make work, not only talk about it.
  • Significant creative skill in Canva and comfort in Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro).
  • Confidence both in front of and behind the camera for video and photography.
  • CMS experience and proven website management skills.
  • Event marketing experience, especially direct customer engagement and activation.
  • Experience creating content for social platforms and running work across multiple channels at once.
  • Detail-oriented process and project-management muscle. You keep calendars, files, vendors, and deadlines tight.
  • Strong writing and visual storytelling. You can make industrial and technology stories feel sharp and human.
  • Comfort using AI tools to create, iterate, and scale content without losing quality or brand voice.

Preferred

  • HubSpot or similar marketing automation, Google Analytics, and experience in transportation, logistics, freight, industrial, or other complex B2B categories.

Benefits

  • Benefits: Full benefits package including medical, dental, vision, 401(k), and paid time off.
