Job description
We are hiring a founding Head of Marketing to build and lead our marketing department from the ground up. You will lead a small offshore team, stand up the systems and processes that support 50+ Mortgage Loan Officers (MLOs), and own the brand, content, and automation that drives our growth. This is a build role for a hands-on leader who can both set strategy and execute alongside the team.
Key Responsibilities

Team leadership: Manage and develop two Marketing Coordinators. Run weekly standups, set priorities, remove blockers, conduct performance reviews.
Brand stewardship: Maintain the company's voice, visual identity, and quality bar across every asset. Approve all work before MLO or external delivery.
HubSpot ownership: Operate and continuously improve HubSpot for marketing automation, drip campaigns, MLO opt-in controls, and reporting.
Compliance workflow: Partner with the compliance consulting firm on every flyer, email, and campaign. Ensure all materials meet TRID, RESPA, UDAAP, and state-level requirements.
MLO satisfaction: Run the marketing intake process, hold the team to a 48-hour SLA, and gather feedback from the MLO advisory group monthly.

Process documentation: Maintain the team's playbook in Waybook including request workflows, brand guidelines, and Claude prompt templates.
