Thunder Funding is a trusted factoring company that provides working capital solutions to trucking businesses of all sizes. We’re a dedicated team of professionals who believe in working hard, delivering exceptional service, and having fun along the way. At Thunder, we prioritize a healthy work-life balance because we know that happy, fulfilled team members create the most impact. From engaging team-building activities to memorable out-of-office events, our culture reflects our commitment to both productivity and well-being. We’re proud to have been recognized as a Best Place to Work in San Diego (2018, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026) and in Idaho (2024 and 2025), a reflection of the supportive, collaborative environment we’ve built.

 

If you’re a hands-on marketing leader who enjoys turning strategy into action, building a strong brand, and creating campaigns that drive measurable growth, we’d love to hear from you.

 

 

Reporting to the Vice President of Marketing & Sales, the Marketing Manager leads the strategic development and day-to-day execution of the Company’s marketing initiatives. This hands-on role is responsible for driving lead generation, brand awareness, customer engagement, and overall marketing performance while serving as the day-to-day leader and primary resource for the marketing team.

The position combines strategic planning, creative execution, performance analysis, and team leadership within a lean, fast-paced environment. The Marketing Manager

will develop campaigns, create content, manage digital channels, support sales initiatives, strengthen marketing operations, and ensure consistent brand messaging across customer and team member touchpoints.

 

 

 

You’ll probably enjoy this role if you like moving between strategy and execution. On a given day, you might shape an integrated campaign, review performance data, write or refine content, optimize a digital channel, collaborate with Sales, coach a team member, manage an outside partner, or prepare for an industry event.

We’re looking for someone who is proactive, creative, analytical, and comfortable taking ownership. You’ll be a strong fit if you can turn business goals into practical marketing plans, maintain high standards while priorities compete, communicate clearly across teams, and stay close enough to the work to help move initiatives from idea to measurable result.

 

 

This position is based in Carlsbad, California, and follows a hybrid schedule of two days onsite and three days remote. Occasional travel for events and meetings is required. Availability to work evenings, weekends, and overtime may be required based on events, deadlines, projects, or other business needs. 

 

Regular Schedule: Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM 

 

 

Base salary ranges from $80,000 to $90,000 annually, depending on experience.

 

Please note that the base pay range shown is a guideline, and individual total compensation will vary based on factors such as qualifications, skill level, and competencies. We also offer health plans, including flexible spending accounts, a SIMPLE IRA Plan with company match, employer-paid EAP, Life & AD&D, LTD, and STD (subject to eligibility requirements).

 

 

This is more than a traditional marketing management role. You’ll have the opportunity to shape how a growing company reaches its audience, strengthens its brand, supports Sales, and engages customers. You’ll work across strategy, content, digital channels, analytics, events, marketing technology, and team development while remaining directly involved in the work and seeing the impact of your ideas.
