McCarthy Building Companies, Inc.
The opportunity here is rare: you design and build the marketing function you wish you’d had at every previous company. You walk into a company with strong brand equity, a healthy pipeline, a talented team, and leadership aligned on what marketing should become. What’s missing is a strategic vision and partnership model that transforms good contributors into a high‑performing function. Establish marketing as the strategic partner regional operations rely on and the C‑suite trusts. Consolidate fragmented spend, create thought leadership programs, refine brand standards, and prove marketing is an investment that pays dividends. You architect how marketing works in a sophisticated, decentralized organization with creative freedom, executive support, and a team ready for leadership.
CORE RESPONSIBILITIES
Regional Partnership & Shared Services Model: Build marketing as the strategic support system regional operations rely on through consistent value delivery, understanding business priorities, and creating shared services that balance centralized efficiency with regional autonomy.
Brand Stewardship & Standards: Refine brand standards, messaging frameworks, and visual guidelines that make good execution easier while ensuring consistency across regions and respecting local market relevance.
External Agency & PR Management: Consolidate fragmented external marketing spend, evaluate and optimize agency relationships, establish a strategic PR approach coordinating regional and corporate needs, and build partnerships that deliver measurable results.
Executive Thought Leadership & Brand Support: Create a turnkey content engine that elevates C‑suite and regional leaders as industry voices through thought leadership strategy, content creation and distribution, and personal brand support.
Marketing Operations & Team Development: Build a high‑performing marketing organization by assessing current structure, redesigning around value delivery, hiring for gaps, establishing performance metrics, and creating a customer service culture.
Budget Management & ROI Demonstration: Manage marketing budget with financial discipline, track investment against business outcomes, identify cost optimization opportunities, and shift perception from expense center to value driver through clear measurement.
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
12‑15 years B2B marketing leadership experience, with at least 5 years in complex organizational environments (multi‑division corporations, franchised/licensed business models, professional services firms, or highly decentralized structures).
Demonstrated success operating in matrixed organizations where influence matters more than authority.
Track record establishing shared services models that balance centralized efficiency with local autonomy.
Experience managing agency relationships with proven ability to consolidate fragmented spend and improve ROI.
History of building high‑performing teams, including reshaping inherited organizations.
Critical Capabilities
Instinctively ask “What do you need?” before declaring “Here’s what we’re doing.”
Comfort with ambiguity and the messiness of consensus‑building across strong personalities.
Ego strength to absorb regional frustration without getting defensive.
Political savvy to navigate organizational dynamics without playing politics.
Patience to build trust through consistent follow‑through rather than demanding immediate compliance.
Business Acumen
Deep understanding of B2B buying cycles, relationship‑based sales, and long‑term client development.
Ability to speak the language of business (revenue, margins, efficiency, ROI) not just marketing metrics.
Financial literacy to build business cases, manage budgets, and demonstrate value in CFO‑friendly terms.
Intellectual curiosity to learn industry dynamics quickly without claiming false expertise.
Strategic + Tactical Balance
Senior enough to think strategically about brand positioning, market opportunities, and organizational design.
Practical enough to roll up sleeves on tactical execution when needed (draft the content, fix the template, join the team meeting).
Comfort moving between 30,000‑foot strategy sessions and ground‑level problem‑solving.
Recognition that earning trust through tactical value often unlocks strategic influence later.
Communication Excellence
Exceptional written communication (you’ll be ghostwriting executive content and crafting brand messaging).
Strong presentation skills for board meetings, regional forums, and team rallies.
Active listening that makes people feel heard even when you can’t give them what they want.
Ability to translate between audiences: explain marketing strategy in business terms, convey regional needs in corporate language.
Technical Skills
Modern marketing technology stack (CRM integration, marketing automation, analytics platforms, content management systems).
Digital marketing fundamentals (social media strategy, paid promotion, SEO/SEM, website optimization).
Brand architecture and positioning development.
PR and communications strategy (media relations, reputation management, crisis response, thought leadership).
Marketing metrics and analytics (comfort with data, ability to build dashboards, willingness to be measured).
Cultural Fit Indicators
Genuine respect for people doing hard physical work in challenging conditions.
Appreciation for regional pride and autonomy as organizational strength, not obstacle.
Comfort in environments where decision‑making is consultative rather than directive.
Authenticity and humility.
Passion for building something meaningful from a strong foundation.
McCarthy is proud to be an equal opportunity employer, including disability and protected veteran status.
