What We Need

We’re hiring a Recruitment Marketing Manager to engage students across various marketing channels with the objective of getting them to apply to Clasp roles . Channels include content marketing, newsletters, podcasts, social media, email marketing, events, and direct outreach.

You will serve as a knowledgeable, trusted resource to students — engaging them at scale and individually to help them understand the value of the Clasp offerings. We’re seeking a high-agency builder: someone who combines strong project management with creativity and experimentation, and excellent communication skills.
