Marketing Director

C5MI is not your typical consulting firm. We are a high-performance team of SAP and supply chain experts who solve complex, mission critical challenges for organizations that cannot afford failure.

We hire consultants who thrive in complexity, move fast, take ownership, and deliver under pressure. At C5MI, you will not be siloed or stuck in theory. You will be hands on, client facing, and directly influencing outcomes that matter.

Our culture rewards initiative, accountability, and continuous growth. This is a place where your expertise is valued, your work is meaningful, and your performance truly matters. If you’re energized by learning through real-world challenges, collaborating with top-tier talent, and expanding your capabilities every day, C5MI is where strong consultants level up.

The Director of Marketing will own C5MI’s full marketing function: strategy, brand, content, and execution. This is a senior leadership role responsible for building on C5MI’s positioning foundation, leading day-to-day marketing activities, managing third-party agencies and vendors, and hiring and developing internal marketing talent as the company scales. This individual brings hands‑on government contracting (Gov Con) marketing experience and understands how federal buyers discover, evaluate, and engage with contractors.

They fully understand the importance of a partner ecosystem, and recognize that C5MI’s audience extends beyond customers to include investors, partners, and potential employees.

• Drives strategic positioning within the SAP ecosystem: amplifies C5MI’s standing as a trusted federal SAP partner through SAP NS2 engagement, partner community visibility, and thought leadership that reaches SAP account teams and agency stakeholders.
