Senior Communications & Marketing Manager (Closed)

The Lucas Group is searching for an experienced, talented, and enthusiastic Senior Communications & Marketing Manager to add as a key member of our client’s team in Atlanta. Our client is a specialty insurer on a global level who is far removed from the world of mass market insurance products. Instead our client is selective and focused on key areas of expertise and strength - all of which is underpinned by a culture that encourages them to challenge convention. 

 
The Senior Communications & Marketing Manager will help tell our client’s story and give people a greater understanding of the client's purpose, mission and value. Reporting to the Head of Communications, you will help to drive awareness for products, services and research through corporate marketing, public relations, media relations and digital and social media. The Senior Communications & Marketing Manager will establish strong partnerships with the marketing team, working closely with senior leaders and subject matter experts across the organization. 

Many companies position marketing assignments as a chance to grow a brand, disrupt a market or help grow a department. Few can validate that. Our client recruits people who want to have an impact and get things done. We are ready – are you?
