Director of Marketing (WAW) - Remote

About We Are Working

We Are Working (WAW) is a full-service staffing company specializing in helping small to midsize businesses hire offshore talent, also known as virtual assistants (VA).

Much of our competition is foreign-based companies that do little more than offer a very low hourly rate and connect a company with a VA and leave much of the figuring it out up to the client.

We Are Working is different in that we are more full service and we layer into the equation rock solid workflow and strong supervision of the VA.

We are workflow experts and once we take over a task, all of the operational headaches associated with that task are handled by WAW from that point forward.

We have been in business for over four years and have built a base of customers and are profitable. However, to a large extent, we are still in start-up mode in that we havent yet figured out how to bring in leads and convert them.

We are looking for a Marketing Director to work either fractional or full time hours that can oversee both WAW and Achieve Test Prep.

You must be the right combination of a strategic leader and hands-on executor because we dont yet have a full marketing team in place.

You should have solid experience in start-ups or turnarounds.
