Mission Control Marketing is looking for a smart, creative recent graduate to jump into the day-to-day operations of the public relations team in our full-service marketing agency.

About Mission Control Marketing

We are a team of marketing strategists and specialists who agreed that there must be a better way to do things. Too many aspects of the traditional agency model simply did not make sense to us... and ultimately, didn’t serve the client’s best interest.

It makes sense to us that brands should be able to have one partner that thoroughly understands each aspect of their business and marketing strategy, and is able to execute in a coordinated, strategic fashion on the channels that actually track toward business goals, not just “Likes” for the sake of likes or media hits for the sake of impressions.

We deliver strategic and tangible business growth for B2B brands by breaking down agency silos.

We believe that brands should be able to build and execute a marketing strategy distinct to their own growth path, prospect base and user journey, without having to use multiple, disconnected agencies.

We bring a holistic approach, taking the time to understand a client’s business like it’s our own and then engineering the best course of action that will drive real business value, whether that’s a media relations campaign, thought leadership program, website redesign, email marketing reboot, or any sort of customized combination of channels.

We measure our success according to the tangible business value we generate. That’s it. Not hours, not impressions, not hits, just results.

Our team is comprised of marketing specialists who work to the highest standards of quality and care across a number of channels: PR, content development, design, creative, lead gen, advertising, web design, email and more. Because we are able to service all channels, clients can always trust that we’re recommending the best course of action for their business.

But most importantly, we care about our clients, the work that we’re doing and each other. We win together and we lose together. We have each other’s backs. And we always opt for the best way rather than the easy way.

IS MCM RIGHT FOR YOU? We hire for culture-fit, so we’ve identified seven traits that make up our DNA:

• give a sh*t

• cerebral approach.

• agile mindset.

• culture of givers.

• trust. trust. trust.

• results matter.

• keen judgment.
