Coordinate multi-channel advertising campaigns that connect and convert.
Manage high-visibility brand efforts - from signage to merchandise - ensuring a strong, consistent presence.
Track and optimize campaigns, programs, and events to drive measurable results.
Support digital marketing across web, advertising, and social channels.
Partner with agents, business teams, and vendors to deliver seamless, on-brand execution.
Manage multiple priorities with speed, focus, and accountability.

What We Offer You:
When you're on our team, you get more than a great paycheck. You'll hear about career development and educational opportunities. We offer an enhanced 401K with a match, low-cost health, dental, and vision benefits, and life and disability insurance options. We also offer paid time off, including holidays and volunteer time, and teams who know how to have fun. Add to that an onsite wellness facility with fitness classes and programs, a daycare center, a cafeteria, and for many positions, even consideration for a hybrid work arrangement. Farm Bureau....where the grass really IS greener!
