Are you ready to shape and elevate one of the most recognizable consumer brands in America?
We are seeking a visionary Vice President of Marketing to lead national brand strategy, consumer engagement, and marketing innovation for a highly recognized consumer product and a presence across America.

This is a rare opportunity to build and influence the future of an iconic brand while partnering with executive leaders, industry stakeholders, and independent organizations across the country.

• Partner with executive leaders, member organizations, agencies, and industry stakeholders to build alignment around a shared brand vision.
• Monitor brand performance, consumer insights, market trends, and campaign effectiveness.
• Balance innovation and growth with consumer trust, and brand integrity.
• Build marketing capabilities, processes, and long-term strategic roadmaps.
What We're Looking For
• 10+ years of progressive brand, marketing, or consumer engagement leadership experience.
• Experience leading national or multi-market consumer brands.
• Strong background in brand strategy, media, digital marketing, CRM, loyalty, and customer engagement.
• Proven ability to influence complex stakeholder groups without direct authority.
• Executive presence with exceptional communication and relationship-building skills.
• Experience within highly matrixed, franchise, membership, regulated, or multi-entity environments is strongly preferred.
Why This Opportunity?
• Lead the strategy for an iconic, nationally recognized brand.
• Shape a newly evolving marketing function with executive sponsorship and visibility.
• Collaborate with senior leaders and stakeholders across the country.
• Strong compensation package, outstanding benefits, generous retirement contributions, and excellent work-life balance.
• Opportunity to make a lasting impact on a brand enjoyed by millions.

If you thrive at the intersection of brand strategy, stakeholder influence, digital innovation, and consumer engagement, we'd love to start a confidential conversation.
