Director of Brand Marketing, Consumer & Home Services

This is a remote position.

MarketPro has been retained by a high-growth, private equity–backed company in the consumer services sector to lead the search for a Director of Brand Marketing.

Backed by a top-tier consumer-focused investment firm, the company is executing an aggressive acquisition-led growth strategy, rapidly scaling a portfolio of 18+ established local brands across the U.S. With significant capital investment and a best-in-class performance and analytics infrastructure already in place, the organization is now making a deliberate investment in building a top-tier Brand function.

The Role

The Director of Brand Marketing will define and execute the brand strategy across a portfolio of local operating brands, ensuring consistent positioning, stronger market differentiation, and measurable impact on demand generation.

This leader will operate at both the strategic and execution level—partnering cross-functionally while building scalable systems that translate brand into performance.

Key Responsibilities:

• Brand Strategy & Positioning
  • Define and evolve brand architecture and messaging across a multi-brand platform
  • Develop differentiated positioning that breaks through in highly commoditized markets
  • Lead annual brand planning aligned to revenue and growth objectives
• Local Market Activation
  • Translate brand strategy into effective, localized execution across diverse markets
  • Enable field teams with clear frameworks, tools, and creative assets
  • Ensure consistency while maintaining local relevance and resonance
• Media & Investment Strategy
  • Oversee $10M+ in brand media investment across traditional and digital channels
  • Partner with analytics teams on media mix modeling (MMM), incrementality testing, and ROMI optimization
  • Continuously refine channel mix based on evolving consumer behavior
• Creative & Content Leadership
  • Lead creative direction to build trust, emotional connection, and clarity of value
  • Develop scalable creative systems and asset libraries across brands
  • Manage agency partners and internal creative resources
• Growth & Integration
  • Support onboarding and integration of newly acquired brands
  • Ensure continuity of demand while evolving brand positioning post-acquisition
  • Contribute to employer brand initiatives to support technician recruitment and retention

What Success Looks Like:

• Increased branded search, direct traffic, and inbound demand
• Improved marketing efficiency (CAC, ROMI, payback)
• Stronger local brand equity and customer trust
• Reduced reliance on high-cost lead generation channels
• A scalable brand system that supports continued acquisition and growth

Requirements

The Ideal Candidate:

We are seeking a strategic, hands-on brand leader who has successfully operated in multi-location, consumer-facing businesses and understands how to connect brand investment to measurable business outcomes.

Required Experience

• 8–12+ years in brand marketing leadership roles
• Proven experience in multi-location, franchise, or distributed service models
• Experience managing meaningful media budgets ($10M+) and working with data/analytics teams
• Track record of building or evolving brand systems that drive measurable growth

Preferred Industry Backgrounds

• Home Services (HVAC, plumbing, electrical, restoration, etc.)
• Consumer Services (pest control, home improvement, field services, automotive services)
• Multi-Location / Franchise Models (retail, fitness, healthcare services, dental/DSO, veterinary)
• Private Equity–Backed or High-Growth Platforms

Additional consideration for candidates from:

Leadership Profile

• Balances creative instinct with analytical rigor
