On-Site Position | Consumer Brand | E-Commerce + Retail

Naples Soap Company is seeking an experienced, hands-on Director of Marketing to lead our marketing strategy and execution across e-commerce, retail, wholesale, and brand.

This is not a strategy-only leadership position. We are looking for a marketing leader who can develop the strategy, lead and develop the marketing team, and actively work alongside the team to execute it.

The ideal candidate brings strong experience growing a consumer brand, understands how brand building and revenue generation work together, and is comfortable using data to make decisions, measure performance, and identify opportunities for growth.

Marketing Strategy & Brand

  • Develop and execute the annual marketing strategy across e-commerce, retail, and wholesale.
  • Own the promotional calendar, campaign planning, brand positioning, voice, and visual consistency.
  • Establish and report on marketing KPIs and forward-looking performance targets.
  • Develop growth recommendations based on projected return on marketing investment.
  • Lead go-to-market strategy for new product launches and seasonal programs.
  • Oversee online brand reputation management.
  • Incorporate AI tools into content development, analysis, and marketing workflows.

E-Commerce & Digital Marketing

  • Drive online revenue by improving traffic, conversion, average order value, and repeat purchase rate.
  • Direct paid media strategy across Google, Meta, and Amazon, including budgets and creative direction.
  • Lead email and SMS lifecycle marketing and campaign calendars.
  • Oversee SEO, content, social media, influencer, and affiliate marketing.
  • Identify opportunities to improve website conversion, product pages, and online merchandising.

Retail & Store Marketing

  • Develop marketing strategies for individual stores and our overall retail footprint.
  • Lead in-store promotions, local store marketing, direct mail, and local media initiatives.
  • Partner with Visual Merchandising on signage, window programs, and store presentation.
  • Support new store openings, events, pop-ups, and community partnerships.

Customer Growth, Analytics & Budget

  • Own customer acquisition cost (CAC), lifetime value (LTV), and the relationship between the two.
  • Lead CRM, loyalty, retention, and customer segmentation strategies.
  • Own and manage the marketing budget.
  • Track ROI, CPA, CAC, conversion, attribution, and POS traffic trends.
  • Maintain dashboards and provide leadership with clear reporting on marketing and channel performance.

Team Leadership & Partnerships

  • Lead, mentor, and develop the internal marketing team and interns.
  • Manage agencies, web developers, BPO partners, freelancers, and other external vendors.
  • Oversee creative production, including photographers, videographers, designers, and content creators.
  • Establish clear expectations, budgets, timelines, and performance standards.
  • Collaborate across Retail, Sales, Operations, Product Development, and Customer Experience.

What We're Looking For

  • Bachelor's degree in Marketing, Business, Communications, or a related field.
  • 7+ years of progressive marketing experience with accountability for revenue.
  • Marketing leadership experience with consumer brands in the $10M–$100M revenue range.
  • CPG experience required.
  • Beauty, skincare, personal care, hair care, or wellness industry experience strongly preferred.
  • Demonstrated experience leading marketing across both e-commerce and physical retail.
  • Experience managing and developing internal teams and directing external agencies.
  • Hands-on familiarity with e-commerce, email/SMS, analytics, and paid media platforms.
  • Current, hands-on experience using AI tools in marketing is required.
  • Amazon marketplace experience is a plus.
  • Strong leadership, analytical, communication, and project management skills.
