EP Wealth Advisors is seeking an execution-focused Client Marketing Manager to serve as the operational leader and second-in-command within the Client Marketing function.
This is a program implementation role responsible for driving execution across client marketing initiatives, managing agencies, vendors and cross-functional teams, while ensuring complex, multi-channel projects are delivered on time and at a consistently high standard. This individual will translate strategic direction into structured execution while staying ahead of trends in the RIA and wealth management space for the benefit of the clients we serve.  Core responsibilities are described below.
Program & Project Ownership
At its core, this role is accountable for turning strategy into action. The Manager will own the planning, sequencing, and execution of major initiatives—bringing structure to ambiguity and ensuring programs move forward with clarity and discipline. This includes managing timelines, aligning stakeholders, anticipating obstacles, and driving initiatives from concept through launch without relying on constant oversight.

What Success Looks Like
This is a marketing operational ownership role responsible for driving the execution of EP Wealth’s client marketing programs with structure, accountability, and precision. Success in this role means initiatives launch on time and at a high standard, agencies and vendors are proactively managed and held accountable, cross-functional collaboration runs smoothly, and client marketing programs operate predictably and efficiently at scale. This individual will own complex, multi-stakeholder projects end-to-end – building timelines, coordinating internal teams, and ensuring disciplined follow-through – so that the Director of Client Marketing can focus on long-term strategic evolution. For clarity, this is not a content writing, graphic design, or social media management role, nor is it a junior coordination position or a strategy-only seat without execution ownership. It is a marketing program owner role accountable for delivery, structure, and measurable outcomes.Top of FormBottom of Form
