Marketing Manager Career Coach (Remote, Flexible Hours)

November 4, 2026

About the job

Who we are
CareerNine is a career coaching platform. People preparing for interviews and career moves book live, one-on-one video sessions with professionals who have already done the job they want: mock interviews to practice for the real thing, and career coaching for the decisions around it.

We’re looking for professionals who know their field deeply and are open to learning how to coach. You don’t need coaching experience. Our coach certification teaches you how CareerNine sessions work. What we can’t teach is the knowledge you’ve built doing the work, and that’s exactly what our members need: someone who can help them navigate a path you’ve already walked.

You don’t need to leave your current job. Coach on your own schedule, around the work you already do. And if you’re between jobs right now, like a lot of talented people are, your experience still counts. We want to talk to you.

Marketing Manager or Marketing Director
Digital Marketing Manager
Paid Search (PPC) Manager

Social Media Manager
Lifecycle or Email Marketing Manager
Content Marketing Manager
Product Marketing Manager
Growth Marketing Manager

What you’ll do

Give career coaching on topics like breaking into marketing, moving up, or switching specialties
Write clear, constructive feedback after each mock interview
Share what hiring managers actually look for, based on your own experience

At least 2 years of professional experience in marketing
Clear written and spoken communication
A computer or phone with a camera and reliable internet

Completion of the CareerNine coach certification before taking sessions
