at SCS Global Services
🏢 About SCS Global Services
SCS Global Services is a pioneer in third-party certification and standards development, with over 30 years of experience advancing sustainability through sound science. As a mission-driven company, you'd contribute directly to climate impact and environmental stewardship, working remotely with a global team dedicated to rigorous, credible certification programs.
About This Role
This role is the operational backbone of the marketing division, ensuring seamless execution of campaigns, events, and sales support for sustainability programs. You'll manage marketing calendars, coordinate webinars and trade shows, and leverage HubSpot and Salesforce to track performance—directly enabling the sales team to drive growth for impactful eco-certifications.
💡 A Day in the Life
You might start your day checking emails and updating the marketing calendar for the month ahead. Mid-morning, you could be creating a HubSpot email campaign for a new forestry certification webinar, then pull Salesforce reports on lead conversions for the sales team. After lunch, you'd coordinate logistics for an upcoming trade show booth, and end the day by analyzing campaign performance data to refine next week's strategy.
