Marketing Manager – Brand, Content & Engagement

📍 Pittsburgh, PA (Hybrid – in-office 3 days / week)

🕒 Full-Time

Olson Zaltman helps Fortune 500 companies solve the riddles of why people think and feel the way they do — and turns those insights into brand, communication, and innovation strategies.

Now we’re looking for someone who can help us apply that same depth of understanding to ourselves, by shaping how we communicate, connect, and show up in the world.

As our Marketing Manager , you’ll lead and execute brand and content strategy across digital channels, conferences, and experiential touchpoints. You’ll think creatively, balancing strategy and storytelling in a way that reflects the soul of a company built on research, metaphor, and meaning.

This is the first role of its kind at Olson Zaltman, which means there’s room to build, experiment, and make your mark. You won’t just be executing a vision; you’ll help define it.

🔹 What You’ll Do

• Grow and engage our audience on LinkedIn and Instagram through content that sparks conversation and elevates Olson Zaltman’s thinking.
• Lead our presence at conferences , handling everything from booth experiences and materials to logistics and follow-up campaigns.
• Develop compelling case studies that showcase our work for award submissions, conference presentations, client materials, and other brand-building opportunities.
• Guide and maintain our website presence , ensuring messaging and tone are aligned with our evolving voice.
• Leverage HubSpot to create smarter, more human-centered digital outreach and improve marketing operations.
• Bring our brand to life through thoughtfully designed swag, collateral, and client experiences.
• Champion brand consistency across all internal and external expressions.
• Lead special initiatives , including the promotion of Jerry Zaltman’s forthcoming book (to be published by Stanford University Press in February 2026).

🔹 What You Bring

This is a hybrid position based in Pittsburgh. Candidates must be able to work from our downtown office (PPG Place) three days per week .

If you are from outside the area and think Pittsburgh is an old steel town, think again! In 2024, Forbes rated our city the third best to live in the U.S.
