About The Position

Leading the Brand Behind the Build. Centric builds cool places to live, work, and play. Our projects shape communities, support businesses, bring people together, and create spaces with real purpose. Now, we’re looking for a marketing leader who can help shape how that story is told. This is a high-impact leadership role for someone who loves brand, strategy, storytelling, design, and people. You’ll lead the marketing function for a growing, employee-owned construction company with a strong reputation, a bold personality, and a lot of momentum. The opportunity is clear: lead the brand, guide the team, support growth, and help Centric show up in the market with clarity, creativity, and confidence. Marketing at Centric is not a back-office function. It is deeply connected to how we win work, build relationships, communicate our value, celebrate our people, and represent who we are. You’ll work closely with Business Development, Preconstruction, Operations, Executive Leadership, and a talented marketing team to bring ideas to life. Some days will be focused on proposals and project interviews. Others may involve brand strategy, social content, project storytelling, photography, events, sponsorships, internal communications, PR, or big-picture planning. This role is for someone who can move comfortably between strategy and execution. Someone who can lead the conversation, shape the message, elevate the design, and jump in when the work needs extra hands.
