  • Monitor pacing, forecasting, and performance to ensure revenue goals are met

Team Leadership & Development

  • Lead, coach, and develop a team of marketing consultants and digital specialists

  • Train sales reps to sell consultatively, not transactionally

  • Help team members translate client goals into smart digital strategies

  • Guide development of integrated digital campaigns including:

  • Experience leading or mentoring sales or marketing teams

  • Strong understanding of digital channels including search, social, display, and video

Skills

  • Strategic thinker who can connect marketing tactics to business outcomes

  • Confident presenter who can lead high-level client conversations

  • Background working with industries like home services, healthcare, tourism, retail, or professional services
