Flowco Career Curriculum Design – Creative & Marketing

Created the first structured career development program for Flowco’s in-house creative and marketing teams. Developed custom growth tracks, hosted team workshops, and brought my team to industry conferences like Figma’s Config to inspire learning and leadership.

Overview / Challenge

As Flowco transitioned from outsourced to in-house creative and marketing—and merged multiple companies into a single brand—there was no clear structure for internal team growth, role clarity, or cross-company collaboration. I led the initiative to build a tailored, scalable curriculum for both Creative and Marketing, while also aligning legacy marketing teams across the subsidiaries under one unified creative foundation.

Process

Phase 1: Foundation & Structure

  • Audited skillsets, workflows, and performance expectations across Creative and Marketing.
  • Researched industry benchmarks to inform a tiered career framework.
  • Defined level expectations across hybrid roles (e.g., Content Creator → Sr. Content Creator → Lead).

Phase 2: Curriculum Development

  • Built two distinct learning tracks:
    • Creative Track: Design Fundamentals → Brand Systems → Campaign Execution → Cross-functional Collaboration → Creative Leadership
    • Marketing Track: Marketing Foundations → Digital Strategy → Campaign Development → Channel Optimization → Strategic Leadership
  • Integrated a blend of formal learning (certifications, online courses) and informal training (internal workshops, YouTube series, mentorship).

Phase 3: Tools & Resources

  • Built centralized learning hubs in Confluence with templates, goal-tracking tools, and resource libraries.
  • Integrated key tools (Figma, Webflow, Canva, Adobe) into structured learning paths.
  • Created onboarding guides and scalable internship growth plans.

Phase 4: Real-World Learning & Conference Integration

  • Brought the Creative team to Config 2024 (Figma’s annual conference) to absorb best practices and apply new Figma features directly to internal systems.
  • Sponsored Marketing team attendance at a strategy-focused marketing conference to bring modern techniques back into our GTM planning.
  • Embedded these insights into both curriculum design and real-world team development.

Phase 5: Cross-Company Creative Alignment

  • Collaborated with department heads across the legacy marketing teams from all merged subsidiaries.
  • Led the alignment of creative standards, tools, and processes across all Flowco marketing groups.
  • Established a shared creative foundation for quality control, brand consistency, and cohesive execution across all teams post-IPO.

Outcomes / Impact

  • Built Flowco’s first structured internal development system for Creative and Marketing disciplines.
  • Unified creative direction and expectations across all legacy companies, strengthening collaboration and consistency.
  • Positioned Flowco as a company that prioritizes talent development, creative leadership, and cross-functional cohesion.
  • Increased retention, engagement, and performance across teams through structured growth paths.
  • Created a repeatable framework now expanding to include disciplines like UI/UX, video, copywriting, and marketing strategy.
  • Supported company-wide transformation post-merger through internal alignment, training infrastructure, and strategic creative leadership.
