Marketing Manager

At Collaborative Real Estate (CRE), we sit at the intersection of universities, research, entrepreneurship, and corporate innovation. We build and activate innovation districts, research parks, shared lab environments, coworking hubs, and technology platforms that help big ideas move from the lab to the real world.

About the Role
We're looking for a Marketing Manager to help shape and elevate our brand ecosystem as we scale across multiple business lines and geographies. This is a ground-up role for a builder: someone who loves refining brand identity, creating compelling content, and developing scalable marketing systems, while rolling up their sleeves to execute as a DOO.

You’ll build and steward a growing portfolio of brands, including:

Residential properties

A SaaS platform

Hosted innovation & community programming

What You’ll Do:

Define brand architecture & narrative across CRE’s expanding portfolio

Create high-quality marketing collateral (web, one-pagers, pitch decks, signage, building marketing assets)

Own the corporate website & digital presence

Lead SEO, digital ads, and content strategy

Implement CRM/marketing systems and track pipeline influence

Partner with leasing, business development, and innovation/programming teams to support growth

Collaborate with our "scientific journalism" communications function — ensuring CRE’s credibility and thought leadership remain front and center

If you’re energized by multi-brand orchestration, strategic storytelling, and building scalable infrastructure, you’ll thrive here.

What We’re Looking For:

5–7+ years full-cycle marketing experience

Strong content, brand, and graphic design skills (Adobe Suite / Canva / Figma)

Experience managing multiple brands/sub-brands

Ability to establish marketing systems and processes (pipeline management, digital asset library)

Bonus Points if you have experience in

Innovation districts, Tech Square, labs, or university-industry ecosystems

Early-stage environments or "department of one" roles

Cross-functional leadership and soft influence style

Why CRE?
You’ll be part of a mission-driven team shaping the future of innovation infrastructure, building spaces, programs, and stories that propel research, startups, and industry collaboration forward.

If you’re a strategic storyteller, builder, and brand steward who wants to help shape spaces and programs where innovation thrives, we’d love to meet you.

Our Committment:
CRE is committed to building diverse, inclusive teams that reflect the communities we serve. We welcome candidates from all backgrounds and identities.
