Marketing Specialist

Chantilly, VA or Huntsville, AL

A day in the life of a Marketing Specialist :

As the Marketing Specialist, you will be responsible for developing, coordinating, and executing marketing initiatives that drive our brand visibility and support our growth in the federal space. As a subsidiary of our larger commercial parent company, Hexagon, we leverage extensive marketing resources while maintaining our distinct focus on the federal sector. We are seeking a creative, detail-oriented Marketing Specialist to serve as a vital link between our technical capabilities and the government acquisition community while also managing the day-to-day marketing operations across various departments ensuring alignment with company branding, messaging, and strategic priorities. Your day will typically include :

Strategic Content Creation : Drafting, editing, and ensuring the compliance of marketing materials (capability statements, slick sheets, website copy, presentations) to clearly articulate our value proposition to government clients.

Proposal Graphic Design Support : Assist in proposal efforts by providing graphic design support for active proposal submissions. This includes creating compelling, compliant, and branded visual elements (e.g., organizational charts, solution diagrams, process flowcharts) to enhance the readability and competitive appeal of complex government bids.

Social Media Management : Create, schedule, and analyze content for company social media channels (e.g., LinkedIn, Twitter). This includes careful messaging to promote our secure, U.S.- focused mission, while strictly avoiding the inadvertent disclosure of sensitive, proprietary, or classified information.

Internal Communications & Culture : Collaborate with HR and leadership to draft internal announcements, company newsletters, and intranet content. This includes a cadence of employee-facing monthly messages, newsletters, and presentations.

Events and Outreach : Planning and managing participation in industry events (e.g., AUSA), government conferences, and virtual events to build relationships and showcase company expertise.

Security Reporting & Digital Pattern Monitoring : Compile detailed analytics on website traffic, press release engagement, and social media activity (including geographic locations, referral sources, and digital patterns of behavior). You will provide these reports to the Facility Security Officer (FSO) as a direct contribution to monitoring the digital environment in support of FOCI mitigation efforts.

Performance Analysis : Track, analyze, and report on the overall effectiveness (ROI) of all marketing initiatives to refine strategies and company spend.

This job is for you if you :

• You are an experienced marketer who is highly skilled at adapting commercial messaging (B2C) for a specific, security-conscious audience (B2G).
• You view the complexity of Government Contracting (GovCon) and FOCI mitigation not as a limitation, but as a framework that guides precise, effective communication.
• You have excellent knowledge of digital marketing, as well as experience in traditional marketing channels.
• You are self-motivated and enjoy developing and executing successful marketing strategies and campaigns.
• You enjoy collaborating with other teams to ensure marketing initiatives are executed effectively.
• You have a good understanding of the proposal lifecycle and can execute high-quality design elements that enhance a winning submission.
