Marketing Director Jobs
First-line marketing leader. Two layers below CMO, hands still on.
What is a Marketing Director?
Marketing Director is the senior-IC-becoming-manager title. They own a function (demand gen, content, brand) or a region (NA, EMEA), report to a VP, and manage 2-6 people. Best-fit candidates have 6-10 years experience, prior people management, and at least one channel they can still execute on themselves when the team is short. The title is most common at companies between Series B and IPO where there's enough scale for layered management but the senior team still needs hands-on operators. At pre-Series-B companies the title often replaces VP for cost reasons.
