Marketing Coordinator

Fort Collins, CO

Marketing Coordinator

As a Marketing professional well connected in NoCO, you’ve undoubtedly heard of us. It probably seems like we’re everywhere, making it hard not to know of Sandbox Solar. In the last year alone, we’ve been named:

  • A Top Solar Contractor by Solar Power World
  • The Reader’s Choice Best of NoCO Winner by NoCO Style
  • A Mercury 100 Winner by BizWest (placing 5th place in Northern Colorado’s Fastest Growing Private Company competition)
  • The Neighborhood Fave by nextdoor
  • A Denver Business Journal Small Business Award Finalist
  • A Summit Award winner from the International Electrical Contractors Rocky Mountain (IECRM) for leading the way in the solar industry for energy efficiency and rebates (while one of our team members was named SuperStar Project Manager of the Year at the IECRM). 

When you throw in that our Founder and CEO, Ian Skor, also won a Top 30 Under 30 just a few years ago, you realize just how amazing our story is. We’ve only been around since 2015! You can find out more at sandboxsolar.com. Three years ago, Ian had a goal of being known as the best solar company in Colorado within three years. We did it.

Our future is even more exciting. We’re leading the way in multiple community and commercial projects, including Solar Microgrids, Group Buying Solar Co-Ops, Agrivoltaic innovations, and of course, residential. With a mission to “Increase the deployment of solar energy in our community to promote energy independence and self-sufficiency,” we’re growing in terms of employee base, number, complexity, scope and size of projects, external recognition, and a lot of other things that mark a high-performing team. It’s a lot to keep up with! Ian’s five year goal was to be known as the best solar company in the nation. That’s where you could come in.

Our Marketing Coordinator will ensure that our brand is visible and growing. That means this position will write and edit all kinds of content, including blogs, social media posts,verbiage for our website, and other marketing materials such as Trade Show and Career Fair booths. In addition, this role will project manage the work done by others as that impacts marketing - PR, graphics, and the technical part of website development. The project management and coordination of the work of others is why we could see this position growing into a Marketing Manager role as we grow.

We are looking for a take charge Marketing Coordinator who:

  • Possesses a Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing, Communications, or a directly related field
  • Has at least two (2) years of Marketing experience, preferably in a construction-related company, ideally in renewable energy
  • Has polished and demonstrable skills in written communication, with the ability to make complex information simple to understand and enticing
  • Excels in teamwork, inspiration, and influence with or without line authority
  • Is organized, managing time efficiently while being unphased by multiple tasks coming from multiple sources with potential conflicting priorities and deadlines
  • Consistently demonstrates a strong work ethic and commitment to quality
  • Will represent us with the professionalism and customer service we’re known for.

This won’t be the right opportunity for those who:

  • Lack initiative, drive, and a sense of urgency to be directly involved in Sandbox’s growth
  • Avoid problems or want to be left alone and uninvolved
  • Drop the ball, or are ok with others doing so
  • Create or experience a lot of drama
  • Allow their ego to get in everyone else’s way
  • Wing it - not thinking of the consequences of their actions on others

We will be accepting applications through November 15, 2024 with a possible extension.
