Careers · Tight team, high bar

We're not really hiring. But read this anyway.

MB is tight on purpose. We add someone every few years, deliberately, when a specific gap opens. If that's you, we want to hear from you before the opening exists.

What working at MB actually looks like.

We're an independent marketing firm. Senior everywhere. No junior tier. No account manager class. Everyone we bring in is expected to be senior in their craft and ready to run their own engagements on day one.

That means fewer roles, higher bar, real responsibility from week one. If you want to grow inside a big org's junior track, this isn't that. If you want to be trusted to ship real work for real clients from the start, this is exactly that.

We don't post job listings often. When we do add someone, it's usually because we know them already, or because they've reached out with work we can't ignore.

If either of those sounds like you, keep reading.

The kind of person MB needs.

01

You're senior in a specific craft.

Development, design, strategy, copy, or ops. You've been doing your thing for at least seven years and you can run an engagement without hand-holding.

02

You care about the work, not the theater.

You'd rather ship something small and real than pitch something big and vague. You believe design serves the org, not the reel.

03

You can talk to humans.

You lead client conversations without translating through an account manager. You explain trade-offs honestly. You don't ghost.

04

You have opinions. You'll defend them. You'll change them.

The best MB engagements come from real disagreements resolved with taste. If you can't argue for what you believe, we can't work together.

The deal.

Compensation

Market rate. Transparent.

Salaries are competitive with mid-size agencies. We share bands openly.

Work

Real engagements. Day one.

You're the maker. Not a supporter. Not a "learning opportunity."

Time

Sane weeks.

No hero shifts. No weekend fires. No burnout as culture. The work is intense; the pace is human.

Where

Remote-friendly.

DC or Detroit preferred. Fully remote works if you're a match.

Growth

Real relationships.

Growth at MB isn't promotions or titles. It's the depth of client relationships you build and the calibre of engagements you get to lead. What you ship builds your reputation over years.

Culture

Tight crew. No politics.

Independent firm. No performance reviews. Real accountability to the work.
