For more than a decade, MCMC has grown into a thriving nonprofit serving hundreds of students and families through private lessons, classes, camps, performances, concerts, and community events.

This is a role for someone who likes both ideas and execution, someone who can create beautiful work and is organized enough to make sure the work actually happens.
You'll coordinate the systems that keep MCMC's marketing and communications moving: our marketing calendar, campaigns, newsletter, social media, website, creative production, and storytelling. You'll manage timelines and production schedules, gather what you need from the team, and help carry projects from idea through completion.
We're looking for someone who notices details that carry the value of our work. Like a beautiful comment from a parent. A student who's been here for ten years. An extraordinary teacher whose story hasn't been told. A program that deserves a creative campaign. An organizational milestone that might interest the press. A photograph, partnership, alumni story, or community connection that could help more people understand what MCMC is and why it matters.
-
You'll work across MCMC to:
Coordinate our marketing calendar and program, event, and organizational campaigns
Manage campaign timelines, production schedules, inputs, and deadlines to keep communications moving
Create newsletters, email communications, website content, and social media
Find and tell stories about our students, faculty, families, alumni, programs, and impact
Design original, polished visual communications for digital and print
Partner with our development team on donor and impact storytelling
Help grow MCMC's visibility through community partnerships, public relations, LinkedIn, thought leadership, and new ideas we haven't tried yet
Coordinate with outside creative partners on select projects requiring specialized expertise
-
You're a skilled visual designer and a strong writer and communicator. You're creative, curious, and highly organized. You can create original, polished work and you're equally interested in the story, audience, and purpose behind what you're making.
You're the kind of person who can anticipate, make a plan, gather what you need from other people, and keep a project moving. You enjoy people, notice good stories, and move comfortably between creative thinking and execution.
Professional experience with Adobe Creative Suite or comparable design software is important. Illustration, photography/video, public relations, social media, nonprofit communications, or arts experience are additional strengths.
We're imagining approximately 3–5 years of relevant experience, but we're interested in demonstrated skill, the whole person, and the perspective you'll bring.
Hourly range: $22-24/hr
20–30 hours/week, with regular on-site work in Middlebury -
