Director of Marketing
About The Position
WRJ Design is seeking an accomplished Director of Marketing to lead the firm’s brand strategy, elevate its national presence, and directly support business growth. This is a senior leadership role with strategic scope — but it is not a purely conceptual position. WRJ is a high-performance, design-driven studio, and this role requires a leader who is equally comfortable shaping long-term brand vision and executing with precision. The successful candidate will move seamlessly between high-level positioning and hands-on implementation: directing photoshoots, refining messaging, shaping proposals, overseeing PR and advertising strategy, guiding social media content, and ensuring every client-facing touchpoint reflects the firm’s luxury standards. This position is based in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. In-person presence is required to fully engage with the leadership team, design staff, and the experiential elements of the brand. What Success Looks Like A highly disciplined, accountable marketing function Elevated national brand recognition and industry presence Compelling support of new business pursuits Consistent, polished brand assets across all channels

Responsibilities
