About Court 16
Court 16 is a premier tennis and pickleball facility with 6 locations across the East Coast — New York City, Yonkers, Philadelphia, and Boston. Our mission is to offer a unique and holistic tennis and pickleball experience to players of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds in a safe, inclusive environment. At our core is a dedication to sportsmanship, discipline, and community — on and off the court.
We are a fast-moving, lean team that values ownership, initiative, and people who get things done.
The Role
We are looking for a driven and detail-oriented Junior Marketing Manager to join our marketing team. This is an execution-focused role with real ownership from day one — you will manage our email marketing across all 6 clubs, run our Meta Ads campaigns, serve as the day-to-day contact for our Google Ads agency, and play a key role in bringing our campaigns and seasonal promotions to life. This role offers the opportunity to shape and implement marketing initiatives that directly impact the success of our tennis clubs, while fostering a culture of accountability and improvement across teams.
If you are organized, a strong writer, comfortable with paid media, and excited about working in the sports and wellness space, we want to hear from you.
Core Responsibilities
Email Marketing
- Write, build, and send all marketing email campaigns across all clubs
- Manage the full email calendar in HubSpot — planning, segmentation, scheduling, and reporting
- Monitor email performance (open rate, CTR, conversions) and share weekly insights
- Ensure all communications are on-brand, well-written, and relevant to each club's audience
- Collaborate weekly with our business analyst to identify and prioritize key inventory and offerings for email campaigns.
Campaign Execution
- Execute seasonal campaigns, new program launches, and promotional pushes across email and paid channels
- Coordinate with the Graphic Designer to brief and deliver campaign creative assets on time
- Liaise with our Social Media agency on weekly content calendar reviews and feedback
Website & Local Listings
- Handle routine website content updates — promotional banners, class schedules, event pages
- Maintain and update Google My Business, Yelp, and Apple Maps listings across all clubs
- Support local SEO efforts through regular profile updates, photo uploads, and review monitoring
Paid Media
- Own Meta Ads (Facebook and Instagram) — campaign setup, optimization, and performance reporting
- Serve as the day-to-day liaison with our Google Ads agency — relay briefs, review performance reports, flag issues, and ensure campaigns align with our goals
- Track paid media KPIs weekly and surface actionable recommendations
Reporting & Administration
- Produce quarterly performance reports covering email, paid media, and local listings
- Support partnership materials and event execution as needed
Profile We Are Looking For
Must-haves
- 1 to 3 years of experience in a marketing role
- Strong copywriting skills — you can write a compelling marketing email from a brief with minimal edits
- Hands-on experience with email marketing platforms (HubSpot, Mailchimp, Klaviyo, or equivalent)
- Experience running Meta Ads campaigns independently
- Comfortable managing external agency relationships and holding them accountable
- Highly organized — able to juggle multiple workstreams across locations without dropping the ball
- Basic analytics skills — you can read performance data, draw conclusions, and act on them
- Self-directed and proactive — you don't wait to be told what needs doing
Nice to have
- Familiarity with Google Ads (even if an agency handles execution, understanding the platform matters)
- Experience with HubSpot specifically
- Background in sports, fitness, hospitality, or a similarly community-driven industry
- Experience briefing designers and working within a creative production workflow
If you don't tick every box but feel strongly that you'd be a great fit for this role and our team, we'd still love to hear from you!
What We Offer
- A role with real ownership and direct impact across locations
- A lean, collaborative team where your work is visible and valued
- Exposure to a broad range of marketing disciplines — email, paid media, content, partnerships, and events
- A fast-moving environment where no two weeks look the same
- Opportunity to grow within the team as the company expands
