Your opportunity

At Schwab, you're empowered to make an impact on your career. Here, innovative thought meets creative problem solving, helping us “challenge the status quo” and transform the finance industry together.

The Workplace Participant Marketing team's charter is to create better financial outcomes for participants by taking the mystery out of investing, and to make it accessible to everyone regardless of experience, age, interest, or income. We're passionate about helping participants (employees of our corporate clients) understand the value of their employers' equity and retirement benefits and how it fits into their overall financial picture and supports their life goals, both short-term and long-term. We want participants to use their benefits as a launching pad into financial wellness, as we believe investing for the future is one of the most important things people can do for themselves and those they care about.

The Marketing Communications Manager, Workplace Participant Marketing, is a solutions-oriented role responsible for developing content and consulting with business partners to implement effective communication strategies.

• Developing clear, effective messaging: Whether curating, editing or writing content, strive to convey complex and technical topics in conversational, relatable language that encourages action. Develop communication strategies and content in line with marketing best practices, serving as an internal expert on how to best inform and engage participants through marketing tactics.

• Driving efficiency and impact: Advise business partners on how to most efficiently use resources to achieve goals, leveraging and maximizing existing content where possible.
• Identifying trends to support new participant experiences: Discover and share new content, template, and campaign needs to improve efficiency and scale while maintaining a best-in-class participant experience.
