Director, Marketing

This is a rare opportunity to define how a fast-growing, multi-entity organization shows up in the market — and why it matters. As Digital United’s Director of Marketing, you’ll shape the frameworks, narratives, and positioning strategies that elevate our brands and unify how we communicate value across entities.

This role blends brand theory and business strategy: you’ll build the foundation for brand equity, awareness, and loyalty — not through one-off campaigns, but through a scalable, strategic architecture that differentiates Digital United in the market. You’ll partner with senior leaders to ensure every touchpoint — from marketing materials to client pitches — reinforces a cohesive, credible brand story that drives measurable growth.

This is a part-time consulting role with flexible hours
. The engagement begins with an intensive upfront phase to establish frameworks, positioning, and strategy, then transitions into ongoing part-time support.
