Marketing Manager

FLSA CLASSIFICATION

This is a full-time position classified as Salaried Exempt under the Fair Labor Standards Act — specifically the Administrative Exemption (29 CFR § 541.200), based on the role's primary duty of performing office work directly related to the general business operations of TISAS Arms Corp and exercising discretion and independent judgment with respect to matters of significance. The employee is paid on a salary basis and is not eligible for overtime. The role is expected to be self-directed, with meaningful autonomy over marketing strategy, brand decisions, and daily prioritization.

TISAS Arms Corp is the U.S. operating division of TISAS — Trabzon Silah Sanayi A.S. — a Turkish firearms manufacturer founded in 1993 and recognized worldwide for engineering quality, manufacturing precision, and competitive value. Best known for our extensive 1911 pistol line and growing portfolio of striker-fired pistols and modern sporting rifles, TISAS has become one of the most respected value-driven names in the U.S. firearms market. From our distribution facility in Buford, Georgia, we ship firearms direct from our Trabzon manufacturing facility to a growing dealer network across the United States.

The Marketing Manager owns the day-to-day marketing function at TISAS Arms Corp in the U.S. market. Reporting to the CEO, this role is responsible for helping to define and execute the marketing strategy, protecting and evolving the brand, and driving the day-to-day marketing activities that build TISAS in the U.S. Scope includes social media, email marketing, digital and print content, dealer marketing, product launch strategy, trade show and workshop representation, and direct client and dealer engagement. The Marketing Manager also provides hands-on sales support at events and in lead development, working alongside the Sales team. This role reports to the VP of Marketing and also works closely with the Creator/Designer.

The Marketing Manager exercises independent judgment and discretion on matters of significance, including campaign strategy, brand direction, budget allocation, vendor and agency selection, event participation decisions, and client- and dealer-facing commitments. This is a self-managed role — you will not be told what to post, how to spend the budget, or how to run a trade show. You will be trusted to translate business objectives into a marketing program that elevates the TISAS brand and moves the business.

This role is well-suited to a strategic, organized, outgoing, and self-directed marketing professional who is comfortable both making decisions and rolling up their sleeves. Familiarity with — or genuine curiosity about — the firearms industry is important, as is an appreciation for the industry's specific advertising restrictions and community norms.

• As needed, assist with sales order processing (Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central) and FFL transfer coordination for direct-to-consumer sales, in partnership with the Warehouse and Compliance teams.

Media, PR, and Community
