VisionPoint Marketing is a marketing agency that helps colleges, universities and community colleges meet their admissions, branding, fundraising and communication goals. Our commitment to strategy, diverse understanding of all marketing disciplines and ability to build consensus across scores of stakeholders enables us to form deep, long standing client relationships.

VisionPoint Marketing boasts a team of really smart people who work collaboratively - without allowing egos or company politics to get in the way. We work in tandem with clients to help make them successful. We work comfortably in an environment of constant change, and we thrive under the pressure of deadlines.

We work hard. But we achieve a balance of hard work and hard play, and we wouldn’t want to be doing anything else or doing it any other way.

Contribute to Something that Matters

At VisionPoint, our exclusive focus is in higher education. We serve universities, colleges and community colleges around the country – from nearby schools like NC State, Duke and the University of Virginia to Pacific coast schools like UC Santa Barbara. We chose higher education as our playground because, frankly, we believe in what we're marketing. We're not curing cancer, but we just might be helping the next great cancer researcher find their perfect school. Learn more about our focus on higher education!

Do Some Amazing Work

Our portfolio will show you award-winning branding, marketing and website design (among other work). Year over year, we’re invited to share our work at many of higher education’s preeminent marketing conferences around the country. We're proud of that work, but we know we can make it even better. Maybe you can help. View our portfolio!

Help to Shape a Great Culture

We're a small company – dozens, not hundreds – with an outstanding group of bright, passionate and just downright good people. Since 2001, we've worked hard to build a culture in which everyone has a voice and everyone has an impact. You're one of a handful of influencers at VisionPoint, not one in a crowd. Meet our team!

Our people and culture are guided by a fundamental set of values we call Vision Points. Our Vision Points inform everything we do--from the work we take on to the people we hire to the way those people answer their phones. Our Vision Points are the proverbial bar by which we measure our performance. They unite us as a group and foster deep connections with our clients. They are what make us...well, us. View our Vision Points!

Not to mention our company offers an outstanding benefit package that includes options for health, dental, vision, matching 401k, paid time off and some other cool stuff. No, we're not able to match a huge corporate salary, but we are competitive. To be honest, if money is your primary motivation, you won't be a good fit here. We're looking for people who want to create amazing work, contribute to an amazing culture and serve clients who are making a critical difference in people's lives.

As a trusted advocate/advisor for assigned client accounts, ensure that all work and deliverables are of the highest quality and ultimately help clients achieve their targeted business goals and objectives.
Establish and strengthen relationships at multiple levels within client organizations, from senior leadership to our day-to-day client contacts, identifying and following through on opportunities, partnering with an Associate Director of Client Experience, to grow our partnerships.
Prepare and participate in all major milestone presentations throughout the life of a project.

Project Management

A Quick Note
Research shows that people from underrepresented identities often hesitate to apply for job opportunities if they feel they do not fulfill all of the listed qualifications. VisionPoint Marketing is committed to building a diverse and inclusive work environment and believes that skills are cultivated through a range of experiences. Even if your past work doesn’t meet all of the preferred qualifications, we still encourage you to apply if you are enthusiastic about this opportunity!

VisionPoint Culture

At VisionPoint, we believe that a strong culture is as much a valued benefit as health insurance, PTO and 401k. That’s why it’s important to us that future team members connect with – and contribute to – our culture. Our communication, our collaboration, our satisfaction and our growth are largely dependent upon whether we all, as individuals, embrace and live out our values. We believe in the work we do, we support each other, we work hard and we like to have a bit of fun too. When it comes right down to it, happy and fulfilled team members produce better work, and better work is what drives us every day.

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
