Marketing Associate (Freelance)

Role Overview

As the Marketing Associate - Youfoodz (Freelance), you’ll play a key role in shaping how the brand shows up across channels. You’ll support the Brand Lead in developing and rolling out brand campaigns, tell product stories in a way that feels simple and real, and help translate our platform into assets that work hard in the channels for which they’re created.

You’ll work across everything from brand storytelling and campaign messaging to content operations and creative production. One day you might be writing email or social copy, the next you’ll be helping turn a big brand idea into a suite of social assets, or partnering with Growth and our Influencer & Creator Marketing Manager to make creative feel cohesive.
