Responsibilities

• Lead communications for one of the nation’s largest and fastest-growing state economic development associations. You’ll own our newsletters, website content, social media, and member storytelling — making sure OEDA’s voice is clear, consistent, and unmistakably grounded in the real work of economic development.

Requirements

• Experience working within an economic development organization (marketing or communications experience in that setting qualifies) with working familiarity with Ohio’s economic development ecosystem
• Ohio residency
• Genuine proficiency with, and enthusiasm for, AI tools. We produce a high volume of content, and AI is core to how we do it well and at pace. This is essential to the role, not a nice-to-have.
• Strong writing, plus graphic design and video editing ability
• Experience managing newsletters, digital content, and social media (LinkedIn is our primary platform)

Preferred

• Proven ability to work effectively and independently in a remote environment
• Direct, hands-on experience doing economic development work
• Prior experience with OEDA and a positive disposition toward the organization and its mission

Benefits

• Full-time, flexible remote schedule
• Paid time off and holidays, plus informal comp time during peak periods
• Health insurance support through a QSEHRA and a retirement plan through a SIMPLE IRA
• A visible role in a growing, high-impact statewide organization
