Now Hiring: Marketing Coordinator (Summer Position)

Note: This position has been filled.

Hudson is a small town with a lot happening beneath the surface.

From independent shops and cafés to cultural events, local traditions, and seasonal experiences, there’s a steady rhythm here — one that visitors don’t always see unless someone helps connect the dots.

That’s where Destination Hudson comes in.

We’re looking for a Marketing Coordinator to join us this summer and help tell the story of Hudson as a place worth discovering — and returning to.

About the Role

The Marketing Coordinator will support the Hudson Hospitality Association’s Destination Hudson initiative by creating multimedia content and contributing to digital marketing efforts that promote Hudson as a vibrant destination.

This is a hands-on, creative role for someone who enjoys being out in the community, meeting people, and capturing what makes a place feel alive.
