Join the Column 13 Team

Column 13 is built for people who like to think.

Our work sits at the intersection of marketing, data, systems, and human judgment. We collaborate closely with client teams, ask uncomfortable questions when needed, and focus on building things that improve over time—not just launch and disappear.

That means we value curiosity, restraint, and follow-through as much as creativity or technical skill.

How We Work

We’re not a factory.

We’re not a hype machine.

And we’re not interested in grinding people down for short-term wins.

Our work tends to favor people who:

  • Think in systems, not silos
  • Care about learning, not just outcomes
  • Are comfortable with ambiguity and complexity
  • Can explain their thinking clearly
  • Respect the human side of marketing and business

We collaborate with internal teams, executives, analysts, creatives, engineers, and operators. That requires maturity, empathy, and an ability to hold multiple perspectives at once.

Full-Time Roles

We don’t always have open full-time positions—but when we do, they’re usually for people who can move between strategy and execution comfortably.

Typical areas include:

  • Marketing strategy and customer economics
  • Analytics, attribution, and dashboards
  • Paid and organic channel strategy
  • Messaging, positioning, and experience design
  • Marketing operations and systems thinking

If you’re interested in full-time work with Column 13, we encourage you to reach out even if there isn’t a role posted. Context matters more to us than job titles.

Internships

Our internships are designed for people who want to understand how marketing actually works, not just how campaigns are launched.

Interns may be exposed to:

  • Real client problems and decision-making
  • Data, attribution, and performance analysis
  • Messaging and positioning work
  • Research with customers and non-customers
  • How marketing connects to sales, product, and leadership

We look for curiosity, thoughtfulness, and a willingness to ask good questions. Prior experience matters less than how you think.

Contractors & Specialists

We regularly collaborate with independent contractors and specialists across disciplines, including:

  • Creative and design
  • Copywriting and content
  • Media and channel specialists
  • Data engineering and analytics
  • Research and qualitative insight

We value long-term relationships over one-off engagements and prefer working with people who care about context, not just deliverables.
