The American Academy of Functional Health provides educational and certification training in Functional, integrative, nutritional, and herbal medicine to healthcare providers.
We are a growing online academy, and we are looking for a motivated, tech-savvy Marketing & Operations Assistant to help us reach more healthcare providers and support our community. This is a hands-on marketing role: most of your time will be spent on email campaigns, landing pages, social media, webinars, and marketing analytics — with a smaller portion of the role supporting day-to-day academy operations such as student communications, certificates, and enrollment records.
The ideal candidate has marketing experience or a marketing degree, learns new software quickly, writes well, is comfortable with Facebook, YouTube, and analytics tools, and is excited to use modern AI tools to create content and campaigns faster. You will work directly with the Educational Director and our student advisor and sales team, and you will see the direct impact of your work on enrollment and growth.
