Job Description

Lead, Execute, Grow & Make a Measurable Impact

Innovaxis Marketing is hiring a high-performing, hands-on digital marketer who can quickly earn a leadership role.

This is not a passive management role. You will:

  • Execute real work daily
  • Lead client communication
  • Manage and improve internal and external resources

If you prove yourself, you could be promoted to the Digital Marketing Manager role within 3–6 months.

Who This Role Is For

This is a strong fit if you:

  • Want to own outcomes, not just complete tasks
  • Are comfortable being client-facing and leading conversations
  • Can balance execution and leadership without ego
  • Take pride in high-quality, detail-oriented work
  • Are resourceful and can figure things out independently
  • Want to grow quickly into a leadership role

Who This Is NOT For

  • Someone who prefers to stay behind the scenes
  • Someone who struggles to communicate clearly with clients
  • Someone who needs a slow-paced, highly structured environment
  • Someone who avoids accountability

What You’ll Do

  • Lead execution of client digital marketing initiatives
  • Manage two internal team members and external development resources
  • Design, build and optimize WordPress websites (without builders but with an established process)
  • Implement and manage WooCommerce or Shopify e-commerce websites
  • Troubleshoot websites, integrations and CRM/automation systems
  • Work across platforms like HubSpot, Zoho and other marketing tools
  • Translate technical work into clear, client-friendly communication
  • Review and QA work from external developers to ensure quality
  • Use AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, etc.) to improve speed and output
  • Identify inefficiencies and proactively improve systems

Must-Have Requirements:

  • 3-5+ years of digital marketing experience
  • Strong WordPress experience (custom builds, not just builders)
  • Hands-on WooCommerce and Shopify experience
  • Proficiency in HTML and CSS
  • Experience with CRM / marketing automation systems (HubSpot, Zoho, or similar)
  • Ability to troubleshoot technical and integration issues

Client-Facing Requirement (Critical)

You must be able to:

  • Lead client calls confidently
  • Communicate clearly in spoken and written English
  • Explain technical concepts in a simple, professional way
  • Build trust quickly with clients

Nice-to-Have Requirements

  • Google Analytics, Tag Manager, Search Console
  • SEO and PPC experience
  • Experience working with offshore or external development teams

What We Value

  • Hungry: actively seeks growth and responsibility
  • Humble: open to feedback and is team-oriented
  • Emotionally intelligent: communicate thoughtfully and effectively
  • Detail-oriented: produces accurate, high-quality work
  • Accountable: owns results, not excuses

Benefits & Perks

  • Two weeks of vacation (to start)
  • Relaxed dress code
  • 3+ work-from-home days every week (following initial training) with a new MacBook
  • 401k with matching (after one year)
