The Role
Midwest Express Clinic is seeking a highly organized, hands-on Digital Marketing Operations Manager to support the execution, oversight, and continued improvement of our digital marketing programs.
This role combines paid media execution, campaign auditing, creative coordination, social media oversight, spend monitoring, agency and vendor management, and marketing project management.
The ideal candidate is comfortable working directly inside digital advertising platforms, reviewing campaign performance, coordinating creative assets, monitoring organic social media activity, and managing multiple priorities simultaneously.

This person will work cross-functionally with internal stakeholders and external partners to ensure marketing initiatives are executed accurately, consistently, and on time.

This is not a purely strategic or administrative position. The successful candidate will be expected to actively manage marketing execution, identify issues, recommend improvements, and keep projects moving from concept through completion.

Monitor conversion tracking, pixels, tags, and platform configurations
Translate performance reporting into practical recommendations and tactical adjustments
Proactively identify new tests, tactics, and opportunities for improvement
Confirm that approved campaign changes are implemented correctly

Social Media Oversight

Oversee the execution and consistency of organic social media activity across relevant platforms

Ensure social content aligns with brand standards, business priorities, and established objectives

Coordinate with internal stakeholders and external partners to obtain needed information, approvals, photos, videos, or other assets
Help maintain a consistent, professional, and locally relevant digital presence

Prepare clear creative briefs that communicate objectives, audiences, messaging, formats, and deadlines
Coordinate revisions between internal stakeholders, agencies, designers, and vendors
Review creative materials for accuracy, quality, brand consistency, compliance, and platform requirements
Provide constructive feedback on creative concepts and executions
Confirm that final assets are delivered in the correct formats and used in the intended campaigns
Maintain an organized library of approved creative assets
Identify opportunities to refresh, test, or repurpose existing creative across marketing channels
Help ensure there is sufficient creative variety to support testing and campaign optimization

Agency and Vendor Coordination

Serve as an internal point of contact for marketing agencies, vendors, and external partners
Track deliverables, deadlines, campaign launches, and open action items
Coordinate recurring meetings and follow-up communications

Identify missing approvals, delayed creative, tracking issues, and potential roadblocks
Communicate status updates clearly and flag items requiring attention
Create repeatable processes that improve organization, visibility, and execution
Help reduce the need for day-to-day oversight from senior leadership
