They have a small marketing group, which is primarily being run by a resourceful and creative Social Media Manager. The high-visibility nature of the institution and a lot of their programming means they need to bolster their marketing and promotion efforts, so they are seeking a Marketing Consultant to help mentor, assist, and guide the SMM in their efforts to raise the visibility of the institution and its programs.
