Director of Marketing

Padel Haus•New York, NY

5d•$110,000 - $140,000

About The Position

This is a high-ownership, high-visibility role at the center of Padel Haus's growth. You will own the full marketing function with a small team: brand, paid acquisition, lifecycle, content, local SEO, and new market openings. You will report to the Chief Growth Officer and partner directly with the CEO on brand vision. You will be both a leader and a doer. You will set the strategy and execute alongside your team. That means writing newsletters, drafting campaign briefs, and building lifecycle flows yourself, not just directing others to do it. We are looking for somebody who has shipped paid campaigns, built lifecycle automation, managed a small team, and launched new locations or product lines with measurable results. If you are coming from a B2C brand in fitness, hospitality, food & beverage, or a comparable consumer lifestyle vertical, this role will feel familiar in the best way.

Requirements

7+ years of marketing experience with at least 2 years managing direct reports.
Multi-location B2C consumer brand background: fitness, hospitality, F&B, retail, or a comparable club or lifestyle concept.
Hands-on ownership of a full marketing funnel: paid acquisition, lifecycle, and analytics.
Direct experience running paid media on Meta and Google.
Experience building and maintaining lifecycle flows in a modern retention platform (Patch is a plus).
Proven track record launching a new location, market, or product line with measurable acquisition results.
Strong written communication: you can write a campaign brief, an executive memo, and a member email with equal skill.
Bachelor’s degree in marketing, business, communications, or related field. Equivalent professional experience considered.
Must be legally authorized to work in the country without sponsorship.
