**Altair Advisers** · Chicago, IL 60606

Job Title: Director of Marketing
FLSA Status: Exempt
Reports to: Head of Finance & Operations

About Us

Altair Advisers is an independent wealth advisory firm providing investment management, financial planning and client education services. We counsel a select group of individuals, families, foundations and endowments. As a fiduciary, we serve as an advocate for our clients, providing objective advice and comprehensive guidance across all aspects of our clients’ financial lives.

About the Role

The Marketing function at Altair helps the firm tell its story, build visibility with the right audiences, and create meaningful client and prospect experiences. Working within owner-defined target markets and growth priorities, the Director of Marketing will have room to bring forward ideas, test new approaches, and use strategic judgment, creativity, data, and technology to expand Altair’s presence while preserving its high-touch, fiduciary culture.

The role will partner directly with the CEO, owners, Director of Business Development, and senior client service leaders to translate growth priorities into clear positioning, thoughtful campaigns, distinctive client and prospect experiences, and a stronger digital presence.

The ideal candidate will enjoy both strategy and creation: bringing ideas forward, reaching target audiences in modern ways, using AI and technology thoughtfully, and building the marketing infrastructure to support long-term growth.
