Have you been impacted by books? Would you love to help make God’s word accessible, helping authors reach the world with life-transforming messages? Are you looking to use your multi-channel, digital marketing experience on a team that contributes to people’s spiritual growth?

Tyndale House Publishers, the largest independent Christian book publisher, has an Associate Marketing Manager position available on its Alliances marketing team in its Carol Stream, Illinois office.

As part of the Tyndale Alliances team, you will play a key role in introducing product that helps people grow spiritually and relationally. You will manage multiple projects simultaneously, working both independently to deliver projects with excellence within established deadlines and budgets, and collaboratively, building trust and integrity as you lead and manage strategic relationships. A significant part of your work will be to understand the message of each author you represent and to amplify the author’s platform to reach new people seeking these resources. This dynamic position builds strong rapport with authors and our publishing partners across intercompany departments, freelancers, and like-minded organizations, to lead the marketing strategies and efforts to create and implement effective campaigns. You will play an active role in our success as you identify felt needs and target audiences; craft compelling, SEO/SEM-rich copy and imagery; schedule, participate in, and lead meetings; develop and present go-to-market plans via Zoom; deliver campaigns on-time and on-budget; and analyze results and adjust future efforts as necessary. There will be other work related to digital marketing and book publishing for you to pursue as well.

Tyndale Alliances is a five-person, healthy, agile, tight-knit team within Tyndale House Publishers that serves two niche, independent Christian publishers: Focus on the Family and NavPress. The Alliances team values relationships, time together where we can be transparent and have fun amidst pressing work responsibilities, and we’re willing to take risks and learn from the results. We aim to be a true team where we create shared successes. Our perspective toward our partners is to continually move toward healthy communications, relationships, and long-term growth.

We have identified team norms and apply them whenever we meet. Our team norms are to enter the danger; to fully engage in meetings; to recognize that we are obligated to speak up (dissent) when we disagree; to share the last ten-percent of what’s on our minds; to realize that sometimes, even though we disagree with a group decision, that we still need to commit to the shared goal; and finally, to give others permission to protect us if there is a blind spot that we need help seeing. The Alliances team strives to continually challenge marketing initiatives and explore new opportunities. Ultimately, we want our partners to find our services to be irreplaceable.
