People Architects is partnering with a growing consumer products company to recruit a Head of Sales & Marketing for a confidential leadership search.
This is a high-impact opportunity for a modern, hands-on revenue leader who can bring together sales, marketing, digital commerce, community, and brand growth into one connected engine. The company has a strong brand foundation, loyal customers, and meaningful room to grow. Now, they need a leader who can help sharpen the growth strategy, improve customer acquisition, strengthen digital performance, and create more visibility into what is working.
This is not a traditional corporate marketing role. It is a player-coach leadership position for someone who can think strategically, lead a team, interpret the data, and roll up their sleeves in a lean, entrepreneurial environment.
This role is a strong fit for someone who has helped a consumer brand grow from an earlier stage into a more disciplined, scalable business.
You are likely a strong fit if you enjoy:
- Building growth systems from the ground up
- Making sense of messy or incomplete data
- Turning brand strength into measurable acquisition
- Leading small teams through change
- Working closely with founders or senior leadership
- Moving quickly without waiting for perfect structure
- Balancing brand trust, community, education, and conversion
Responsibilities:
In this role, you will lead the company’s sales and marketing function with a focus on measurable growth, new customer acquisition, digital commerce, and scalable revenue strategies.
Key areas of focus include:
- Building and executing an integrated sales and marketing strategy tied to revenue growth
- Strengthening new customer acquisition across digital, social, influencer, affiliate, partnership, and content channels
- Leading DTC/e-commerce growth and improving performance across the customer journey
- Using data to evaluate what is working across acquisition, conversion, retention, and profitability
- Overseeing influencer, affiliate, ambassador, and community-led growth strategies
- Partnering with leadership to evaluate future channel expansion opportunities, including marketplace, retail, and e-tail
- Improving reporting, KPIs, team accountability, and decision-making rhythms
- Leading and developing a small team while staying close to execution
- Helping the organization use modern tools, AI, search, and digital discovery more effectively
Qualifications (Required & Preferred):
The ideal candidate has experience growing a consumer brand and understands how to connect storytelling, community, digital commerce, and measurable revenue performance.
Strong candidates will bring:
- 10+ years of experience across marketing, sales, digital commerce, or revenue leadership
- Experience in beauty, clean beauty, wellness, skincare, cosmetics, personal care, premium lifestyle, or adjacent consumer products
- Proven success growing a DTC/e-commerce business
- Strong understanding of new customer acquisition and full-funnel marketing
- Experience with influencer, affiliate, ambassador, creator, or community-led growth models
- Comfort with platforms such as Shopify, Klaviyo, Google, Meta, TikTok, Amazon, or similar tools
- Strong command of metrics such as CAC, LTV, ROAS, MER, conversion rate, AOV, repeat purchase, and margin
- Ability to lead in a lean, fast-moving, founder-led or entrepreneurial environment
- A hands-on mindset in both strategy and execution
- Curiosity around AI, modern search behavior, social commerce, and changing consumer discovery patterns
