We’re looking for a creative, strategic Digital Marketing Lead to own Earthscape Play’s digital marketing function and bring our story to life across our digital and customer touchpoints. Reporting to our Director, Marketing, and working closely with sales and cross-functional teams, you will set the digital and content plan, manage the budget behind it, and turn ideas and project highlights into polished, high-performing campaigns. You will own our website, social channels, email marketing, and SEO, lead multi-channel and paid campaigns, manage external creative partners as needed, and be accountable for the results that matter most: web traffic, leads, and engagement.

Our work is highly visual and design-led.



Success in this role requires a strong communicator and self-starter who excels at storytelling, in both copy and visual formats, balances competing priorities with sound judgment, and possesses the organizational rigor to manage digital platforms, turn performance data into decisions, and keep marketing projects moving seamlessly from concept to launch.
