Sculpt is a social media marketing agency built for change. In a world where consumer expectations shift as fast as Facebook’s algorithms, we help our clients brand stories stay consistent and marketing keep pace.

Sculpt launched in 2012 with a goal to help the brands in our backyard connect with their human customers more humanly. Today, our strategists, communication designers, and engagement managers have become the secret weapon of marketers and founders nationwide, helping build audiences that care, share, and convert.

Our small but mighty company is fiercely collaborative and ever evolving. Our ideal candidate understands the unique nuances of a team-oriented, agile work environment, and will jump at the chance to grow something special.

Also, we dig the color orange.

It's time we met.

While Sculpt was born as a pure-play social media agency, today we support our clients' evolving needs with flexible, integrated digital marketing scopes that touch all stages of the customer journey. That was a real sentence. And that's where you come in.

At Sculpt, you are the data-hungry, growth junkie that has a spreadsheet for everything. You appreciate process, and take proactive steps to optimize everything you touch. Obsessed with learning, you geek out on algorithm updates, ad tech, and the pursuit of tools that cut half the time off everything you do. You're a big thinker, but not afraid to get your hands dirty and practice what you preach. A real leader. One that sees potential, but isn’t afraid to start small.

You speak business as well as you speak marketing, and can articulate the whats, hows and whys in a form your audience can understand. You translate raw data into analysis and insights that’s confidently presented over calls, emails, and IRL. And like doing it.

You fit our core values to a T. We look for humans with Hustle & Heart:

1. Spark - You ask “What if” and say “let’s try”

2. Doers - You have a bias towards action and impact

3. Growth Mindset - You’re forward-thinking, future-focused
