Marketing & Communications Specialist (part-time)
Southgeeks·about 21 hours ago
Hi there :)
Thanks for checking in to find out about our open position. We´ll provide as much information as possible, but please feel free to reach us if you have further questions. We´ll be happy to see your application, even if there are skills you don't quite master!
About Us
South Geeks is a strategic partner to US companies in wealth and health. We place senior Latin American engineers directly into client teams, and deliver complete projects to our clients.
We are a small leadership team running an AI-native operation. Our marketing engine already exists and it works. We need someone to own it and iterate on it, not build it from zero.
Why This Is Important to Us
We are at a growth stage where how we show up matters as much as what we deliver. We run AI-native and we expect our marketing function to work the same way: fast, iterative, and built on tools that compound rather than tools that just execute tasks.
This role sits close to leadership because marketing and communications directly shape how clients, candidates and partners perceive South Geeks. Every piece of content, every press mention, every LinkedIn post is part of how we build the relationships this business runs on.
About the Role
This is a full marketing and communications function inside a 10-hour week. It works because the cadences are defined, not because the scope is small. You will know exactly what runs weekly, monthly and quarterly from your first week.
Reports to: Julia Duran, CEO
Location: Remote, Latin America, overlap with US Eastern business hours
Start: October 2026
Key Responsibilities
Content engine (roughly 45%)
Run the monthly content cycle end to end
Bring real editorial judgment to every draft
Curate the weekly newsletter digest from our external subscriptions into a working idea pipeline
Produce the company blog and LinkedIn articles: research, source, structure, draft
Press, awards and events (roughly 20%)
Own press pitching, twice a month minimum
Own the awards pipeline: research, shortlist, write and submit. One submission a month
Triage events. Recommend what we attend and what we skip, prepare speaker pitches and CFP submissions, write the recaps after the ones we attend
Draft holiday and milestone client communications
GEO, web and collateral (roughly 20%)
Own GEO. Implement the audit findings, then keep our presence current for AI-driven discovery. This is a real part of the job, not a side task
Make ongoing website updates
Keep pitch decks, one-pagers and client-facing collateral current against the brand kit
Performance and process (roughly 15%)
Report monthly to leadership on what worked, what did not and what changes next
Improve the workflows and AI prompts behind the content system. We expect this role to get faster over time because you make it faster
What You Need to Succeed in This Role
3+ years in B2B marketing or communications, technology preferred
Near-native written English. You will write for a US audience daily and it has to read like one of them wrote it
Real editorial skill. You can take an adequate draft, make it good, then explain why it is better
LinkedIn as a professional channel, not a personal one. Company page strategy, post performance, what actually moves engagement
Actual use of it as your production system
Self-direction. Nobody is going to build your week for you
What Will Set You Apart
Fintech, wealth tech or health tech exposure
Media relations or PR experience, especially pitching
Awards submissions or event speaker pitching
SEO or GEO working knowledge
Our full stack: Claude Cowork, LinkedIn, Buffer, ClickUp, HubSpot, Google Workspace and Slack
