SUMMARY:
Heritage Auctions is looking for a full-time, experienced marketing professional to join its Category Marketing team within the Marketing Department. The ideal candidate has 5 years of hands-on experience personally managing a heavy volume of marketing efforts, campaigns, and content creation, e.g., direct mail, brochures, postcards, print advertisements, and miscellaneous collateral. This position will work closely with graphic designers, print production staff, and subject matter experts to produce marketing efforts with brand consistency in a fast-paced environment.
Experience supporting a sales or account/client team is highly desirable. Bachelor’s degree required. Outstanding attention to detail, organization, and interpersonal skills is a must. Experience with the auction business and/or collectibles, fine art, or luxury lifestyle goods (e.g. fine jewelry and timepieces) is preferred. This position will report to the Vice President of Marketing.
Responsibilities
Duties include, but are not limited to the following
Owning the support function, end to end, of marketing campaigns for specific auctions and categories. Ability to formulate and communicate creative ideas.
Managing the processes for producing print marketing efforts and campaigns, e.g., creating jobs, scheduling production workflow, acquiring creative assets, communicating job specs to the graphic design team, and interfacing with print production vendors.
Serving and collaborating with assigned internal clients and subject matter experts, i.e., the directors of our 50+ categories of collectibles, fine art, and luxury lifestyle items.
Providing content (marketing copy and images) to the graphic design team.
