Jellyvision is hiring a Communications Strategy Manager

Jellyvision’s headquarters is in Chicago, and, post-COVID, many of us will be returning to the Chicago offices (by choice, not requirement -- our philosophy is “Flexible First”).  But this position is also eligible for work by a remote employee out of CA, FL, GA, IL, KY, MA, MI, MN, NY, NC, OH, OR, PA, TX, UT, WA, or WI.

Who we are

We’re the proud parents of ALEX®, an interactive employee communications platform that makes choosing (and using) employee benefits easier and more enjoyable. Our credo is a simple one: be helpful. And we think the best way to achieve that is with a staff that reflects the vast range of ideas, perspectives, and experiences of the millions of people who use our products.

Anything else?

Jellyvision is committed to continuous evolution and to fostering a more diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone is welcomed, valued, and respected. It doesn’t matter your race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, age, marital status, disability, gender identity, sex, or country of origin...we just want amazing people who are willing to grow along with us.

How you’ll help

We are looking for a smart, capable and creative Communications Manager to implement and execute campaigns for our customers. You’ll be talking with customers, understanding their communication needs and goals, and crafting the plans full of compelling content that exceed their expectations.

With a strong background in email marketing and communications, you’ll play a leading role in our new Managed Services offering. With email, SMS text and social channels at your fingertips, you’ll help our customer-employers deploy messages to their employees that help drive a deeper understanding of their benefits, overall usage of ALEX, and improve the corporate communications that are often long and boring. You’ll be their communication advisor, coordinating the details and tactics of Open Enrollment communication strategies. You’ll collaborate with the Creative team, Account Managers, User Engagement and Customer Ops.

What you’ll do 

  • Advise our clients on email, text and push notification campaigns to meet their benefit communications goals.
  • Develop and execute campaign plans for benefit communications, during Open Enrollment and beyond
  • Proactively work with Account Managers and Customer Implementation Managers as part of the account team to ensure customer delight
  • Partner with the Creative team to develop branded email templates and campaign content that leverages best practices and customer needs

Experience & skills you’ll need

  • Strong communication, presentation and writing skills 
  • Understanding of brand, tone and voice, bonus points for the ALEX brand!
  • Strong accountability and project management for tasks without close supervision
  • 3+ years of relevant management experience preferred
  • Ability to build excellent rapport with customers
  • Able to re-prioritize tasks quickly and deliver results.
  • Naturally curious and willing to dive deep to find solutions.

Skills

  • Action oriented
  • Communicates effectively
  • Manages complexity
  • Balances stakeholders

An Insider's view of Jellyvision

How would you describe the company’s work-life balance?

When the company culture from top-down is set to take accountability and pride in your work, when leadership trusts and empowers employees to do the right thing and gives them flexibility as Jellyvision does, it motivates employees to give their very best to the organization. Work-Life Balance is not just a buzzword at Jellyvision.

Rajal

Senior Product Management, Benefits Engagement

How do you collaborate with other teams in the company?

If I’m coordinating, I absolutely love ending a meeting by summarizing action items any teams are accountable for before everyone leaves. Especially with so much information to keep track of, it helps me to pinpoint the important bits. Making sure there is clarity all around is the best and most efficient way that I can collaborate with teams.

Ashleigh

Talent Sourcer

What makes someone successful on your team?

Our team scales across Jellyvision, with a mix of curiosity, humility, and helpfulness. We willingly lean in to support the products that help people protect their health and well-being. And while a wicked sense of humor is in no way a requirement, we’ve lucked out with truly interesting, funny folks.

Chrissy

SVP Product Marketing

What unique initiatives do you have that encourage innovation?

Implementation is a team of ballers, constantly impressing me with new ideas. Our most recent ideas are new classes around Professional Development and a pilot approach to quickly implement customers. These ideas came from folks on the team. When my coworkers have these ideas, my job is to give them the support and resources to run with them.
