DOW CREDIT UNION: OUR MISSION

In 1937, the country was still in the throes of a severe economic depression that underscored the need for a workable financial plan to enable Dow employees to save for emergencies and obtain convenient, low-cost credit. Two Dow employees heard about the credit union movement, and the rest is history. Today, we serve more than 84,000 members across all 50 states and in over 40 countries and have over $2.5 billion in assets. Our goal has always been to serve our members to the best of our abilities and provide them with the best value for their money. Every day, we continually strive to improve our level of service by keeping our focus on our members.

In order to do this, we have to hire and retain loyal, team-oriented employees who have genuine care and concern for our members and conduct themselves with integrity and professionalism. That's why we offer competitive pay, excellent benefits, and a positive work culture. We truly respect each other and actively encourage diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). We are an equal-opportunity employer.

What You'll Do

Working closely with our Director of Marketing and Community Relations, you'll help turn strategy into action-making sure marketing initiatives are accurate, timely, on‑brand, and compliant.

Your days might include:

• Building and deploying marketing emails, supporting online advertising, social media, sponsorships, tradeshows, and events
• Reviewing and editing marketing materials to ensure brand consistency, accuracy, and regulatory compliance
• Serving as a community ambassador, representing Dow Credit Union at local and regional events (yes, occasionally evenings or weekends)
• Coordinating campaign timelines, schedules, logistics, and vendor support to keep projects moving smoothly
• Assisting with content development, drafting copy, sourcing visuals, and supporting creative needs
• Supporting internal communications like newsletters, updates, and key messaging
• Helping maintain marketing calendars, tools, systems, and databases
• Tracking basic analytics and performance metrics for campaigns, websites, and social media
• Managing branded inventory (giveaways, apparel, promotional materials-you know, the fun stuff)
• Supporting financial literacy and community education initiatives through materials prep and event logistics
• Assisting with meeting prep, agendas, notes, reporting, documentation, and budget tracking
• Providing administrative support for vendor relationships, contracts, and invoice processing

• Using bonus skills like graphic design or short-form video editing (if you've got them!) to help produce eye‑catching creative content

Who You Are

You're organized, creative, and calm under pressure. You love checking things off a list-but you're also happy to jump in when plans change.

You're someone who:

• Enjoys supporting multiple projects in a fast‑paced environment
• Has a sharp eye for detail and a strong sense of brand voice
• Communicates clearly and collaborates easily with teammates, vendors, and partners
• Is comfortable balancing creative work with coordination and administrative tasks
