Born in Santa Fe, Marini began his career with Colón, scoring the goal which sealed the club's promotion to Primera División in 1995.[1] He subsequently represented Motagua, Quilmes, All Boys and Toros Neza before retiring with San Martín de San Juan in 2003.
On 5 February 2021, after several years working in the youth categories, Marini was named manager of the reserve side of Colón.[2] On 8 July 2022, he was named interim manager of the main squad after Julio César Falcioni left.[3]
Marini returned to his previous role after the appointment of Sergio Rondina, but was again interim after Rondina was sacked in August.[4] On 29 August, he was permanently appointed manager.[5]
