Marketing Associate (Sofia, Bulgaria)
📍THE ROLE
As a Marketing Associate at Eleven, you will own the fund’s marketing and communications strategy from concept to execution. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role that blends strategic thinking with creative output – equal parts storyteller, brand builder, and operator. We are looking for a self-driven, curious, detail-oriented, and hungry-to-grow individual.
You will work closely with our Head of Marketing, platform, and investment teams to translate our thesis, portfolio, and values into narratives that resonate – and ensure Eleven shows up consistently and credibly across every channel and touchpoint.
📍WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
- Strategic storyteller. You can translate a complex investment thesis, a founder’s journey, or a market insight into a narrative that actually lands – whether it’s a 2,000-word article or a 30-seconds reel.
- Brand builder. You understand what makes a brand distinctive and defensible. You think about positioning, consistency, and perception, not just content output.
- Ecosystem-native. You have a genuine curiosity about startups, technology, and the people building the future. You understand the VC landscape and know how to speak credibly to founders, LPs, and operators.
- Data-informed and creative. You’re comfortable digging into analytics, SEO performance, and engagement data – but you also know when to take a creative leap and try something unexpected.
- Doer and executor. You don’t wait for a brief or to be told what to do – you spot the gap, build the plan, and put something out before anyone has to ask.
📍WHAT YOU’LL WORK ON
- Partner with the Head of Marketing to develop and execute Eleven’s communications and marketing strategy across all channels
- Create compelling content – LinkedIn posts, newsletters, press releases, blog articles, short videos and beyond.
- Build and manage Eleven’s presence across key channels, ensuring a consistent, high-quality brand voice
- Support the personal brands and thought leadership of our investment team, helping them show up meaningfully in public conversation
- Support our portfolio companies with their positioning, messaging and strategic marketing
- Optimize our SEO and GEO strategy, ensuring Eleven is discoverable and well-positioned across both traditional search and AI-generated results
- Produce graphics, visuals, and creative assets for social media, campaigns, and events – primarily using Canva and AI-powered design tools
- Track, analyze, and report on performance across channels – and use those insights to continuously improve
- Plan and execute flagship events including our Founders Weekend retreat and monthly ecosystem gatherings
📍WHAT YOU BRING
- 1–5 years of full-time experience in marketing, communications, or content – ideally within startups, a VC or tech-adjacent firm, a marketing agency, or a media outlet covering the tech and business space
- A background in or strong affinity for storytelling
- A fast iteration mindset – you ship, learn, and improve quickly
- A content instinct that transcends format – you see content opportunities everywhere and can turn a market insight into a LinkedIn carousel, a founder story into a case study, or a team sync insight into a short reel
- A good eye for visual design – you know what looks right and you can produce polished assets without a designer in the loop
- Native fluency with AI tools – you actively use them to produce better work faster, and you stay curious about what’s new
- Comfort working with data – you know how to read a dashboard, draw conclusions, and act on them
- Experience with events and community building – from logistics to atmosphere, you understand that great events are a brand statement
