From the employer
About us
Our vision is to become the marketplace for everything expensive, specialized, and difficult to move. We’re building the infrastructure that powers the procurement and disposition of assets across America’s essential industries, automating everything from discovery and payments to freight, warranty, and financing. Today, Garage operates in cities and towns across all 50 states and has surpassed $100M+ in annualized transaction volume on the platform.
Our mission is to save local governments and essential services businesses time and money. We started with fire departments two years ago and have since expanded into EMS and heavy-duty, launching new verticals while growing revenue >10x last year.
If you move fast, hold a high bar, and want meaningful ownership in building a category-defining company, Garage is the place to do it.
About the role
We're looking for a strong marketing generalist to be a key driver of organic growth. You'll find creative and cost-efficient ways to acquire customers, grow our audience, and build our brand across a variety of surfaces, including but not limited to organic social, partnerships, press, and SEO/AEO. This is a versatile role on a lean team, and you'll need a deep understanding of what actually drives impact and a bias to action and experimentation.
This is a role for a scrappy, growth-oriented marketer who is excited by building organic flywheels that scale with the business. You'll work closely with the Head of Marketing to build these functions from close to zero and develop systems to scale them.
Build and scale our organic and earned channels. Own growth across organic social, press, and content. Your goal is to grow our audience and drive acquisition through channels that compound over time.
Build partnerships that drive growth. Develop and manage partnerships across creators, industry associations, and platforms that put us in front of new buyers and sellers and open up net-new marketing opportunities.
Turn customers into advocates. We have a lot of happy customers and want to amplify their voices. Build referral, affiliate, and advocacy programs that turn successful customers into repeat users and growth drivers.
Win search and answer engines. Build our presence across SEO and AI answer engines (AEO) so we show up when prospective customers — and the models they ask — are looking.
Experiment with new channels. Test into new channels and special projects, and build repeatable systems to acquire buyers and sellers. Drop what doesn't work and double down on what does.
Take leveraged swings. Collaborate across marketing, sales, and engineering to find plays that drive outsized, compounding growth.
What we’re looking for
You love the energy of a high-growth environment where every day looks a little different
You're fast-moving, resourceful, and have a strong bias to action — down to do what it takes to move the business forward.
You can go deep on organic and social growth but think and work like a generalist
You have good judgment, high integrity, and a no-task-too-small mindset
Required

Know what makes great organic content that grows both followings and businesses
Comfortable building repeatable systems and testing and iterating quickly
Thrive with high autonomy in an early, ambiguous environment
Nice to have
Experience scaling marketplace businesses
Experience growing social channels organically (YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, etc)
