About VAAN

Vaan, A Verndale Company, is a brand and commerce agency built for the DTC era. We partner with category-defining, digitally native brands to design, build, and optimize high-performing commerce experiences where brand and conversion are inseparable. Our approach—Brand Conversion Design—blends world-class creative, rigorous UX, and deep Shopify Plus expertise to turn storytelling into growth at scale. As part of Verndale, we bring enterprise-grade thinking with the speed, taste, and performance mindset of a modern DTC growth partner.

This year, we’re expanding our marketing efforts and looking for someone who can help us scale them.

The Role

We’re hiring a Junior Marketing Associate to help scale VAAN’s marketing output.

You’ll work closely with our Marketing Manager to execute across social media, editorial content, and creator partnerships, helping bring VAAN’s voice and ideas into the world.

We want someone who brings genuine creative taste, cultural awareness, and the hunger to help build something distinctive.

 
What We're Looking For

We care less about rigid credentials and more about taste, curiosity, and cultural awareness.

You might be a great fit if you are:

• A strong writer, this is non-negotiable. You write with voice, clarity, and taste

• A cultural antenna, you’re deeply online and culturally aware

• Savvy with AI tools 

• 1–2 years of experience in marketing, content, social media, or a related field (or a portfolio that speaks for itself)

• Genuine interest in ecommerce, DTC brands, and the creator economy

Bonus Points

• You already have an audience or create content yourself

• Skilled in Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, and graphic design

• You have experience with influencer or ambassador programs

• You've worked at or with an agency before
  
  What You'll Own

Social Media (LinkedIn, Twitter/X, Instagram)

• Own the content calendar and drive output to 3–4 posts per week per platform

• Write copy that sounds human, no AI slop

• Design or source visuals that match our aesthetic and resonate in the ecommerce space

• Track performance, surface insights, and iterate

Content & Writing

• Write and help design case studies that tell our clients' stories collaborating with partners

• Contribute to and help scale our newsletters

• Support the creation of VAAN's trend reports: research, write, and shape the narrative

CIR Program Support

• Assist with our influencer program: outreach, coordination, and relationship management

• Help identify emerging creators and voices we should collaborate with

Ideas & Culture

• Bring new ideas to the table, proactively

• Stay plugged into ecommerce, DTC, and digital culture

• Help grow VAAN Media as a content brand in its own right
  

Why VAAN

We're an agency that's genuinely trying to do things differently. You won't be running the same playbook as everyone else, you'll be helping write a new one. This role comes with real ownership, creative freedom, and exposure to strategy. You’ll work closely with leadership and play a meaningful role in growing VAAN’s marketing engine.
