This is a business leadership role .
We’re looking for someone who doesn’t just manage client relationships—
but owns outcomes, drives growth, and thinks like a partner to the business.
If you understand how financial institutions actually grow—and can translate that into marketing that performs—you’ll thrive here.
What You’ll Own
- Lead and grow relationships with banks and credit unions
- Translate business goals into clear, executable marketing strategy
- Drive integrated campaigns across digital, direct mail, and data-driven channels
- Ensure every initiative ties back to measurable growth (accounts, deposits, loans)
- Identify opportunities before the client does—and act on them
- Elevate creative, strategy, and analytics into one cohesive story
What You Bring
- 5-7+ years in marketing, with direct financial services experience (banking or credit union)
- Deep understanding of:
- Deposit growth strategies
- Loan acquisition
- Customer segmentation and targeting
- Ability to connect strategy → execution → results
- Confidence to lead conversations with senior client stakeholders
- A bias toward action
Why Whale
We’re built differently.
We don’t separate strategy, data, and creative into silos.
We integrate them—and expect our leaders to do the same.
- Work directly with leadership on high-impact accounts
- Be part of a team that prioritizes thinking over task-taking
- Influence real growth for financial institutions—not vanity metrics
- Collaborate with strategists, analysts, and creatives who push each other
Compensation & Benefits
- Competitive base salary + performance-based bonuses
- Profit sharing program tied to company performance
- Full benefits package (medical, dental, vision)
- 401(k) with company match
Who This Is For
Someone who is:
- Frustrated being stuck in “order-taker” agency roles
- Ready to step into true ownership and strategic leadership
- Energized by solving real business problems—not just launching campaigns
Apply
If you’re ready to lead—not manage—we’d like to talk.
This is a remote position.
