We are looking for a Director of Marketing & Brand Strategy to help lead that next chapter.

The Opportunity

Reporting directly to the President & CEO, the Director of Marketing & Brand Strategy will own Sconza's marketing and brand strategy and play a significant role in shaping the company's future.

This is a senior, highly visible, hands-on leadership position for a marketer who understands that great marketing isn't simply about creating beautiful campaigns - it is about building brands, creating demand, supporting customers, and driving profitable growth.

The Director will have ownership of:

• Marketing strategy and annual marketing plans
• Brand strategy and positioning
• Packaging and brand presentation
• Marketing budget and ROI
• Agency and creative partner relationships
• Digital marketing, e-commerce, social media, and content
• Marketing analytics and performance measurement

The role will also have significant influence on product development and innovation, including consumer insights, product positioning, naming, packaging, go-to-market strategy, and commercialization.

The Director will work closely with the Sales Leader to identify growth opportunities, strengthen customer relationships, develop compelling customer programs, and translate market insights into commercial opportunities.

This is an opportunity to make a visible impact on an established American company while helping shape what the next generation of Sconza looks like.
