We are seeking a creative, organized Digital Marketing and Communications Manager to bring SSP America's digital marketing and communications channels into one clear, well-managed system. Reporting to the Director of Marketing and Communications, this role manages SharePoint, Viva Engage, social media, newsletters, SMS/texting, the website, digital advertising, and the digital asset library.

This is an ideal opportunity for a digital marketer who enjoys creating on-brand content, keeping information accurate and easy to find, using data to improve results, and putting AI and digital tools to practical use.

Key responsibilities include:

• Managing the day-to-day operation of SharePoint, Viva Engage, social media, newsletters, SMS/texting, the website, digital advertising, and emerging platforms.
• Building and maintaining content calendars, project timelines, publishing schedules, and review workflows so digital communications are delivered on time.
• Creating and managing on-brand content for digital channels, including graphics, video, infographics, digital ads, and SMS artwork.
• Taking, editing, and managing photography and video for airport openings, social posts, internal events, and other business priorities, in partnership with SSP America's professional photographer.
• Planning, placing, and tracking digital advertising, including Google and social media buys.
• Maintaining the corporate website through quarterly reviews and new content projects, keeping all content accurate and on brand.
• Serving as the MarCom SharePoint site administrator, including governance, training and support for departmental administrators, quarterly audits, and management of the digital asset library.
• Creating toolkits, templates, and guidance that help leaders and field teams take part in digital communications and social media in a consistent, brand-right way.
• Monitoring digital conversations and industry trends for content opportunities and reputation issues that may need escalation.
• Tracking performance across social media, website, email, and digital campaigns, and preparing dashboards and insights that show what is working and how to improve.
• Using AI-powered and digital tools responsibly to speed up research, drafting, editing, content optimization, and workflows.

• Hands-on experience managing social media platforms and digital content.
• Strong project management and organization skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines at the same time.
• Ability to manage details, maintain accurate information, protect brand standards, and coordinate work with multiple stakeholders in a fast-moving environment.
• Experience tracking digital performance with analytics tools and turning results into practical recommendations.
• Ability to establish and maintain eligibility to work in the United States.
• Ability to travel approximately 25%-30% within the U.S. and Canada, including overnight stays.
• Flexibility to work overnight, weekend, and holiday hours as business needs require.
