Position Overview:

At UMC, the marketing team is more than social media and company swag (although they matter, too). We are strategic contributors to UMC's growth and daily operations, partnering with leaders across the company to develop winning pursuit strategies, elevate our brand, strengthen client relationships, and communicate the value that UMC brings to every project. We're looking for a Senior Marketing Specialist to join our highly collaborative and high-performing team.

The right candidate is proactive, organized, and comfortable managing multiple deadline-driven projects in a fast-paced environment. If you enjoy helping teams win meaningful work, turning complex ideas into compelling client-facing materials, and transforming strategy into stories that inspire collaboration and action, we'd love to hear from you.

Help shape compelling value propositions that clearly communicate UMC's strengths and differentiators. Develop proposals, qualifications, interview presentations, and other client-facing deliverables. Write, edit, and refine content for accuracy, clarity, and strategic impact. Design polished documents and presentation materials using Adobe Creative Suite tools. Ensure all deliverables meet client requirements, brand standards, and submission deadlines.

Required Skills and Abilities:

8+ years of progressively responsible experience in marketing, communications, business development support, or proposal development within the architecture, engineering, or construction (A/E/C) industry, or a similar environment. Experience supporting capture planning and multi-stakeholder pursuit teams is preferred.
