At the Manhattan Institute, we're looking to hire a creative and experienced marketing leader to define our brand and expand our influence—particularly across digital channels. Working closely with MI’s President, this is a senior, high-impact position offering significant autonomy to define and execute our marketing strategy. If you have prior marketing experience, preferably at an ideas-focused organization (e.g., media/publishing, think tank/advocacy, political campaigns/government), this could be a great opportunity for you. If you are interested or know anyone who might be a strong fit, please reach out to me!
