About Munro & Associates

Munro & Associates is a design-focused engineering consulting firm. We help manufacturers rethink what’s possible and turn evidence into value — better products, lower cost, faster cycles, clearer decisions.
Brand DNA: Rethink Possible — make the “impossible” doable with rigorous design and business discipline.
Mission: Empower a better future — one product, one process, one decision, one business at a time.

The Role

We’re seeking a hands-on, self-directed Marketing Manager to elevate our brand, drive demand, and lead all external communications. You’ll be a team of one (for now) who plans and executes — partnering closely with Sales, Munro Live, and leadership. You’ll shape messaging, content, and campaigns that amplify Munro’s voice and convert attention into action.

You’re a builder, storyteller, and strategist who can turn complex technical insights into compelling narratives — ensuring Munro shows up with clarity, consistency, and credibility.

• Lead external communications: press releases, media outreach, corporate announcements, public statements.
• Enable Sales: campaigns, collateral, case studies, presentations, and digital assets.
• Collaborate with Munro Live to align content, branding, and promotional strategy.
• Build and maintain brand standards, messaging frameworks, and visual identity.
• Plan and run targeted campaigns to grow qualified pipeline and brand visibility.
• Oversee website updates, social channels, newsletters, and overall digital presence.
• Coordinate thought leadership, speaking opportunities, and media positioning with leadership.
• Track and report performance (engagement, reach, conversions, traffic, lead flow).
• Manage external vendors, creatives, or freelancers as needed.
• Create lightweight templates, toolkits, and repeatable processes for speed and consistency.

What You’ll Champion (Brand Pillars → In Practice)

• Rethink: Bring creative approaches that challenge industry norms and expand reach.
• Business-Centric Design: Translate technical depth into clear business value.
• Exceptional Performance, Tangible Impact: Deliver measurable gains in brand awareness, qualified leads, and credibility.

• Proven track record owning initiatives end-to-end as an individual contributor.
• Strong external comms, PR, and brand positioning experience.
• Ability to turn technical subject matter into accessible, compelling content.
• Proficiency with CMS, email platforms, social media, CRM, and analytics.
• History of partnering with Sales on campaigns, messaging, and enablement.
• Excellent writing, editing, and storytelling across formats.
• Bonus: experience with video/podcast/livestream content brands.
• Strong project management and planning skills with a bias for execution.

Nice to Have
