Marketing Manager

Full-Time | 100% On-Site | Edina, MN

We are a fast-growing, multi-state cannabis enterprise spanning retail, delivery, manufacturing, and corporate consulting services with a mission to lead and innovate in the cannabis industry. Our CEO’s personal brand as a pioneering female leader in the space is a core part of our identity. We’re scaling aggressively, and we’re looking for people who are excited to build something meaningful alongside us.

Role Overview

We’re hiring a Marketing Manager to own the execution of our marketing strategy across retail, CPG, and digital channels. You will report directly to the CEO, COO and Executive Chairman and will be responsible for translating their strategic vision into campaigns, content, and brand assets that drive revenue and customer loyalty.

This is a hands-on, ground-floor opportunity. You’re joining a small marketing department that’s ready to grow — and you’ll play a central role in shaping what it becomes. We need someone resourceful who can deliver results without a big team or a massive budget, and who sees that as an opportunity rather than a limitation. As the company scales, this role will scale with it.

A note on our culture: Our leadership team communicates directly and moves fast. Feedback here is honest, specific, and frequent — because that’s how we all get better. We’re looking for someone who appreciates that kind of clarity, can separate feedback on the work from feedback on their artistic preferences, and uses it as fuel to improve. You’ll have real creative latitude within a clear strategic framework set by leadership. If that kind of partnership sounds energizing to you, keep reading.

Stay current on emerging AI marketing platforms and proactively recommend and implement tools that increase output quality and reduce time-to-market.

Collaborate with the technology team to launch websites, delivery platforms, and loyalty apps that are brand-aligned and optimized for user experience.
