Director of Marketing & Communications
About Temple Beth Am
Temple Beth Am is one of the largest Reform congregations and educational institutions in the Southeast, serving a vibrant, multigenerational community across Miami-Dade County. Our campus is home to three distinct pillars of Jewish life: Temple Beth Am (our congregation), Rambam Day School, and The Hub (our cultural arts center). We are a place where tradition meets innovation and where communications and marketing play a meaningful role in connecting families, fostering belonging, and amplifying our mission.
Position Overview
We are looking for a dynamic, mission-driven marketing and communications leader to serve as the Director of Marketing & Communications and as the de facto Creative Director for our entire campus. This role is at the heart of how Temple Beth Am tells its story, connects with its community, and grows its reach across three distinct and beloved brands.
The Director will lead all aspects of marketing, communications, branding, public relations, and creative output for Temple Beth Am, Rambam Day School, and The Hub. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who loves both strategy and execution — someone equally comfortable in a boardroom and a design brief.
