And We're Looking for Someone Who Can Help Tell Our Story. Bill Harris Dealerships is growing and evolving our marketing team, and we're looking for a Marketing & Content Manager who can recognize a good story, turn it into a plan, and get it in front of the right people. This isn't a job where you wait for someone to send you a marketing request. We're looking for someone who thinks: What are our stores trying to accomplish? What story are we telling? What should we capture today? Who needs to be involved? What can we create once and use across multiple platforms? Did it work? We have three dealerships, hundreds of employees, thousands of customers, busy sales, service and parts departments, community involvement, events and plenty of personalities. The challenge isn't finding things to talk about. It's recognizing the stories, organizing them and consistently getting them out there.

We're Looking for a Marketer & Storyteller First You don't have to be a filmmaker, professional photographer or graphic designer. We're looking for someone who is: Highly organized and proactive Personable and comfortable working with different personalities A strong communicator, writer and storyteller Creative, energetic and willing to experiment Comfortable coordinating multiple departments and locations Able to turn a business objective into a marketing idea Comfortable working independently and taking initiative Interested in community involvement and relationship building Comfortable using analytics to determine what's working Most importantly, you should enjoy making things happen. Your Phone Is Your Primary Camera. Your Calendar Is Your Most Important Piece of Equipment. We're looking for speed, authenticity and consistency over perfection. If you can walk into a department, recognize a good story, grab your phone, get people involved, edit it and publish it while it's relevant, that's valuable.

Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube Short-form and long-form content Basic video editing and graphic design Website content management Email/newsletter marketing Digital advertising fundamentals Social media analytics and performance measurement Professional photography, videography, Adobe Creative Suite, advanced graphic design and advanced editing skills are positives—but they're preferred skills, not the centerpiece of this position. What Success Looks Like Six months in, we want to see structure, consistency and momentum. Our content calendar is organized. Our departments know what's coming. Our employees are getting involved. Our social channels consistently showcase our people, sales, service, parts, customers and communities. Marketing isn't simply reacting to requests. Instead, we want someone thinking: \"Here's what we're trying to accomplish. Here's the campaign. Here's the content we need. Here's who needs to be involved. Here's when we're publishing it. And here's how we'll know if it worked.\" That's the mentality we're hiring for. Your Background Doesn't Have to Be Automotive We care more about what you can do than where you've done it.
