We've invested heavily in digital over the past several years and have strong organic rankings, a large GBP portfolio, and active PPC campaigns across multiple markets. We're now ready to own this function internally and are looking for a seasoned operator to take the wheel.
This is a true ownership role. You'll be the firm's first in-house marketing hire, working directly with leadership and inheriting a mature foundation to build on and a team to grow.

- Vendor management during transition, then full in-house ownership
- Senior ownership role with direct access to firm leadership and real strategic influence
- Competitive compensation package commensurate with experience
- Fully remote
- One brand to go deep on instead of managing multiple clients
- Clear growth path as the firm expands nationally
- 5+ years in digital marketing, with the majority in legal multi-location service industry
- Deep hands-on experience with local SEO at scale: you've managed GBP portfolios, not just optimized single locations
- Google Ads expertise: you've built campaigns from scratch and managed six-figure monthly budgets
- Experience with paid social (Meta Ads Manager), ideally in a service business context
- Strong analytics mindset: you set up tracking, build dashboards, and make decisions from data
