Description
Our client is a well established, family owned residential plumbing, HVAC and electrical company serving Los Angeles and Orange County, and they are bringing marketing fully in house. They are hiring a hands on Director of Marketing to own every marketing dollar, put more jobs on the board at a lower cost per customer, and build the brand to its next level. This is not a seat for someone who wants to sit behind a desk: you will be in the daily huddle with the leadership team, working in the tools yourself and making moves the same day. If you have owned a seven figure marketing budget in home services and want to grow one, this is worth a conversation.
