About Ceramic Tile Center
Ceramic Tile Center has been the Bay Area’s trusted resource for fine tile and stone since 1976. With showrooms in Sonoma and Marin, we partner with designers, architects, builders, and homeowners to bring beautiful, lasting surfaces into every kind of space — from intimate residential projects to custom home builds. Our showrooms are where the magic happens: curated slabs, hand-selected tile collections, and a team that loves to create.
About the Role
We’re looking for an organized, design-driven Creative Marketing Associate to help tell our story across social media and bring our showroom events to life. This is a hands-on role for someone who loves design, has a good eye, and is excited to grow into the marketing function of a beloved local business. You’ll work directly with the leadership team and be the steady hand behind our daily marketing presence — posting to social, engaging with our community online, designing invitations for designer events, and crafting brochures that put our materials in their best light.
You’ll be based at our Santa Rosa showroom, surrounded by the products you’ll be marketing — with easy access to our slab gallery, tile displays, and the designers who use them every day.

What You’ll Do
Social media management

Plan and schedule posts across Instagram, Facebook, and Pinterest
Capture photo and short-form video content of new arrivals, slabs, tile installations, and showroom moments
Write captions that sound like us — warm, knowledgeable, design-forward
Monitor comments and DMs and Google reviews daily; respond promptly and route product or trade questions to the right team member
Track what’s working (reach, engagement, follower growth) and share simple monthly reports

Event marketing & invitations

Design digital and printed invitations for designer events, vendor nights, and showroom launches
Coordinate event logistics in partnership with the showroom team: RSVPs, signage, refreshments, follow-ups
Capture event coverage — photos and short video clips — for social and email recap

Brochures, collateral & visual content

Design product brochures, lookbooks, sell sheets, and trade-show materials in Canva, Adobe Express, or InDesign
Maintain a clean, on-brand library of templates, images, and product imagery
Help with email campaigns — designer newsletters, event invites, new-arrival announcements
Maintain company website with live slab inventory and product maintentance

Brand & community

Keep our voice consistent across every channel
Build relationships with local designers, vendors, and industry partners
Spot opportunities — trends, tagging, collaborations, press — and bring them to the team

Who You Are
A natural communicator with strong writing instincts — you can sound polished, friendly, or playful depending on the moment
Visually inclined — you notice good design and care about how things look
Comfortable shooting clean photos and short videos on a phone
Organized and reliable — you can juggle a content calendar, an event invitation, and a brochure draft in the same week
Self-directed, but love working alongside a small, supportive team
Genuinely interested in interiors, materials, and craft (you don’t need to be a designer — just curious)

Nice to Have

Hands-on experience with Canva, Adobe Express, or Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator)
Familiarity with Constant Contact or similar email platforms
Basic photography or short-form video editing (Reels, CapCut)
Coursework or internship in marketing, communications, design, or interior design
An eye for tile, stone, paint, or interiors — even if just as a fan

What We Offer
A welcoming, design-rich workplace where your taste matters
Direct mentorship from the owner and leadership team
Room to grow — this role can evolve as you do
A front-row seat to the Bay Area design community
Competitive pay, employee discount on materials, and a beautiful showroom to call your work home
