Marketing Coordinator

Checkpoint Surgical is a growth-stage medical device company headquartered in Cleveland, OH. We develop and commercialize instruments and biologics for peripheral nerve surgery — a market we helped define and continue to lead. Our products are used by hand surgeons, plastic surgeons, and orthopedic specialists across the country. With roughly 60 employees and a national sales network, we operate with the speed of a startup and the clinical credibility of an established brand.
We are adding a Marketing Coordinator to support our growing commercial and education programs. This role sits at the intersection of field execution, surgeon education, and internal collaboration — and is a strong fit for someone who thrives on logistics, detail, and cross-functional ownership.
The Role

The Marketing Coordinator will own the planning and execution of local and regional surgeon education events, including dinner programs, hands‑on workshops, and product training sessions. You will work closely with our VP of Marketing, Regional Sales Managers, and clinical team to design high‑quality educational experiences that advance surgeon adoption and support our commercial strategy.
This is a highly operational role that requires strong project management skills, vendor relationships, and the ability to manage multiple events simultaneously across different geographies.
