Marketing Associate

About the Role
We’re looking for a Marketing Associate with roughly 3 to 5 years of professional experience to support marketing initiatives for CI Group and our clients. We want more than a strong executor. The right person is an excellent writer, strategic thinker, curious researcher and resourceful problem-solver who is comfortable being handed an objective without a step-by-step process, and who naturally asks, “How can I figure this out?”
You’ll work across content, digital marketing, thought leadership, proposals, research, campaigns, events, client initiatives and emerging technology. The work changes often, so you should enjoy learning new businesses, industries, technologies and tools. Experience in electric utility, power and energy, engineering/AEC, infrastructure or energy technology is strongly preferred.
What You’ll Do
Create B2B content, including LinkedIn thought leadership, articles, email campaigns, case studies, presentations, website copy, newsletters and client communications
Support and run marketing initiatives across digital, email, social media, events, websites, CRM, marketing automation and other channels
Research markets, utilities, competitors, prospective clients, technologies and industry trends, and turn what you find into useful insights and recommendations
Support proposals and business development, including RFQs, RFPs, qualification packages, presentations, project descriptions, executive bios and reusable marketing content
Manage multiple client and internal projects from concept through execution, coordinating priorities, deadlines, stakeholders and deliverables
Use AI-powered tools strategically to improve the quality, speed and effectiveness of research, content creation, workflow automation, project management, audio and video production, data analysis and other business tasks
AI Fluency Matters Here
AI is already part of how CI Group works. We’re looking for someone fluent in AI tools and platforms across content, research, automation, project management, audio and video, and data analysis. More importantly, we want someone who knows how to get the best results from them: structuring a problem, giving the right context, iterating on outputs, checking accuracy, spotting weak or generic results, doing extra research when needed, and turning AI-assisted work into something genuinely useful.
You don’t need to know every platform. We expect you to be curious, willing to experiment and always looking for smarter ways to work. AI should accelerate good thinking, not replace it.
What We’re Looking For
About 3 to 5 years of professional marketing experience, preferably in B2B, professional services, engineering, energy, technology or another complex industry
Exceptional writing, editing and communication skills, with the ability to make technical or complex ideas clear and compelling
A strategic, analytical mindset, with a track record of researching unfamiliar topics, working through ambiguity and developing a thoughtful path forward
Strong fluency with AI-powered business tools and the ability to use emerging technology across different types of work
Excellent project management, organization and attention to detail, with the ability to juggle multiple priorities
A high degree of ownership, judgment, curiosity and resourcefulness. You know when to ask questions and when to go find the answer
Industry Experience
Experience in the utility and energy ecosystem is strongly preferred, including with:
Electric utilities
Engineering and AEC firms
Energy technology or grid modernization companies
Utility vendors, manufacturers or contractors
Infrastructure companies
Consulting or professional services firms serving the energy industry
You don’t need to be an engineer or technical expert. You do need to be interested in learning technical subject matter and become comfortable communicating with executives, engineers, utility professionals and other industry leaders.
Additional Experience We’d Love to See
A combination of some of the following:
Executive thought leadership and LinkedIn content
HubSpot or other CRM and marketing automation platforms
Proposal, RFQ or RFP development
Professional services or AEC marketing
Canva, Adobe or similar creative tools
PowerPoint and presentation development
Website CMS platforms
Email marketing
Conferences, events and trade shows
Marketing analytics and reporting
AI-enabled workflows and automation
You don’t need to check every box. We care more about your ability to learn quickly, think strategically and produce excellent work.
