Marketing Coordinator

Role
K1 is seeking a Marketing Coordinator to join our marketing team and play a central role in coordinating the firm's external brand strategy. Reporting directly to the Head of Marketing, this person will touch nearly every dimension of what we do – producing design‑forward digital publications and microsites, supporting one of the most active event programs in private equity, developing portfolio company case studies, and creating polished, on‑brand creative assets for an audience of founders, executives, and investors.

This is not a role where you wait for direction. You'll own initiatives end‑to‑end, work across the full marketing function, and bring a high standard to everything you produce – written, visual, and strategic. The right candidate leads with a strong design and web sensibility, can hold their own editorially, and is as comfortable building a page in WordPress as they are crafting the narrative that lives on it.

If you want real ownership, direct exposure to firm leadership, and the opportunity to shape the voice of a leading private equity firm – this is the role.

Key Responsibilities
Design, Web, & Visual Production

Maintain the visual identity of K1's external presence – creating branded assets for digital and print including social graphics, one‑pagers, event materials, and internal templates

Build, update, and maintain pages across K1's website, including event takeaways, portfolio spotlights, and editorial pages

Contribute to design and front‑end development of K1's custom microsites, working with external vendors on complex projects; Figma experience a plus

Digital Reports & Flagship Publications

Play a central role in producing K1's digital bi‑annual firm reports – design‑forward, data‑rich publications that synthesize activity across investments, transactions, talent, events, sustainability, and portfolio performance

Gather and organize firm‑wide data inputs, translate them into clear story arcs and visual narratives, and bring them to life in polished, aesthetically compelling final products

Content & Editorial

Write and edit across formats – LinkedIn posts, award submissions, thought leadership, portfolio company spotlights, and firm‑wide communications – with an eye for how words and visuals work together

Manage the editorial calendar and monitor content performance, evolving strategy based on real engagement data

K1 Accelerate & Events

Support visual design, content production, and social amplification for K1's flagship events – gatherings that bring together portfolio executives, founders, and industry leaders across 40+ events annually worldwide

AI & Process Innovation

Actively leverage AI tools to raise the speed and quality of marketing workflows – from content drafting to data synthesis to design iteration – without ever outsourcing judgment

Bring a builder's mindset to recurring processes: identify inefficiencies and build repeatable systems that make the next cycle faster without sacrificing excellence

Qualifications

Bachelor's degree – first‑generation college students are encouraged to apply

1–3 years of experience in marketing, design, communications, or a related field – experience in finance, technology, or professional services a plus

Strong design sensibility with hands‑on experience in Canva or Adobe Creative Suite – you think visually and it shows in your work

Web skills ranging from WordPress, HTML/CSS, or light front‑end development, with design thinking as priority

Solid editorial instincts – able to understand, synthesize, and shape the written content that powers our website, publications, and reports

Analytical and organized – able to gather, structure, and synthesize large volumes of data into clear, compelling outputs

Self‑directed and accountable; you set a high bar for your own work and don't need reminders to meet it

Sound judgment, high ethical standards, and the ability to handle confidential information with discretion

Positive, team‑first attitude – proactive, solutions‑oriented, and no task beneath you

Benefits

Health, dental, and vision insurance

401(k) with profit sharing

Unlimited PTO, plus holidays

Electric vehicle (EV) stipend

Daily catered lunch in‑office
