We are looking for a Marketing Coordinator on the Demand Generation + Events team at Khoros. Together we are responsible for building awareness and generating quality leads by creating and placing marketing messages that stand out amongst the noise and clutter in the customer experience software space. This is a dynamic, highly trending space where enterprise brands are looking for help on how they can not only meet but exceed their customer's expectations in order to retain and earn their loyalty. That's our mission at Khoros and what we help our customers do -- create customers for life.

This position will split their time primarily supporting our Event team (~75% of the time) but also aid in supporting some non-event Demand Generation activity (~25% of the time). The Coordinator will provide support for the production and management of events, hosted owned-events and 3rd party sponsorship events designed to promote the Khoros brand and drive demand. In addition, he/she will aid in the execution of marketing programs focused on lead generation in the areas of email, social, paid media, and content development. The Marketing Coordinator will report to the Director or Demand Generation + Events.
