What are the responsibilities and job description for the Director of Growth & Business Development position at Unleashed Business Services?
Unleashed Business Services is the shared services company supporting a growing portfolio of East Texas businesses, including a kids enrichment business, a law firm, and a construction company.
Each business has an established reputation and strong foundation. We are looking for an energetic, relationship-focused professional who will help take all businesses to the next level through strategic marketing, business development, community engagement, and brand growth.
This is not a traditional marketing position.
We are looking for someone who enjoys meeting people, building relationships, creating opportunities, and executing marketing strategies that produce measurable results.
Position Summary
The Director of Growth & Business Development is responsible for developing and executing marketing and business development initiatives across four growing companies.
This individual will oversee social media, digital marketing, community outreach, referral relationships, events, sponsorships, strategic partnerships, and brand awareness while tracking measurable results and continuously identifying opportunities for growth.
