This role is employed by CBRE and sits within their Experience by Industrious business unit, operated in partnership with CBRE

About the Role

At Experience by Industrious, we’re building a portfolio of services that reimagine the workplace—not just for companies, but for entire office buildings. As part of our tenant experience offering, we partner with leading commercial landlords to deliver amenity and engagement programs that make tenants feel more connected, supported, and productive.

We are looking for a Creative & Marketing Manager to develop and operationalize event strategy, marketing systems, and creative excellence that will drive engagement, consistency, and perceived value for both tenants and ownership. This role sits at the center of creative execution for Experience by Industrious – translating strategy into programs, content, and tools that elevate the tenant experience across a national portfolio.

This role is well-suited to someone with experience across community engagement, marketing, events and activations, branding, and hospitality—someone who can move fluidly between creative thinking and execution.

What You’ll Do

As the Creative & Marketing Manager, you’ll be responsible for how Experience by Industrious shows up across our Community program – events, marketing content, and communications.

You’ll partner closely with the Director of Community & Marketing to bring ideas to life – translating strategy into clear standards, usable tools, and high-quality outputs that teams can execute across a national portfolio.

Some days you’ll be designing templates or refining messaging. Others, you’ll be shaping an event concept, sourcing creative partners, or helping a team elevate an activation. You’ll move between creative work and execution – ensuring everything we put into the world feels cohesive, intentional, and reflective of the experience we’re delivering.

Your role is equal parts creative and operational: setting the standard, supporting teams, and making sure the work holds up.
