Manager Of Brand Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Spot Zero, Southern Marine Supply, and Elite Marine A/C are redefining how yacht owners, captains, service providers, dealers, and boat builders support vessels around the world. From advanced water purification and desalination technology to OEM replacement equipment and parts, aftermarket support, and marine HVAC solutions, our companies help keep vessels operating at their best — whether crossing oceans, sitting at the dock, or preparing for the next adventure.

We are looking for a Senior Manager of Brand, Marketing & Digital Experience who is equal parts strategist, storyteller, project leader, and growth driver. This isn't a corporate marketing role buried beneath layers of bureaucracy. You'll work directly with ownership, influence company strategy, lead brand evolution, launch new products, oversee major international boat shows, transform digital customer experiences, and help shape the future of three growing marine brands.

If you enjoy building brands, solving problems, creating momentum, and delivering measurable business results, you'll thrive here.

The Opportunity

This role leads all marketing initiatives across three distinct but complementary marine brands:

• Spot Zero — industry-leading reverse osmosis technology, and spot-free water systems serving the global marine market.

• Southern Marine Supply — OEM parts, aftermarket support, dealer services, and marine equipment distribution.

• Elite Marine A/C — marine HVAC systems, climate control solutions, technical support, and service expertise for the yachting industry.

You will develop and execute marketing strategies that drive brand awareness, customer engagement, lead generation, dealer support, eCommerce growth, and revenue. The role combines strategic leadership with hands-on execution — some days presenting growth initiatives to leadership, other days coordinating a product launch, managing a content shoot onboard a yacht, planning an international trade show, reviewing website designs, or working with agency partners to bring a brand vision to life.

Major Initiatives You'll Lead

Over the next 12–24 months, you'll play a pivotal role in several high-impact initiatives that shape the future of our brands and customer experience.

Brand Evolution & Refresh

One of our core brands is undergoing a strategic brand refresh designed to position it for future growth while preserving the trust it has earned in the marine industry. Working alongside our agency of record and ownership, you'll help guide the evolution of brand positioning, messaging, visual identity, customer experience, and market presence.

Website Transformation & Digital Experience

We are investing in a best-in-class digital experience across all brands. You'll lead website strategy, UX improvements, content architecture, SEO, conversion optimization, and customer-journey enhancements — working with agency partners, web-development resources, and internal stakeholders to deliver projects on time, on budget, and at a high standard.

Shopify Integration & eCommerce Growth

A key initiative is the development and expansion of our online parts and accessories business through Shopify. You'll oversee implementation and optimization of Shopify-powered eCommerce designed to simplify purchasing, improve satisfaction, and support long-term revenue growth. Responsibilities include:

• Managing external Shopify developers and integration partners.

• Leading eCommerce strategy and online merchandising.

• Improving product discovery, navigation, and user experience.

• Supporting inventory visibility and product organization.

• Developing digital marketing campaigns that drive online sales.

• Creating scalable systems that make it easier for customers to find and purchase what they need.

Experience with Shopify, eCommerce strategy, digital merchandising, or online customer experience is highly desirable.

Building the Future of Marine Customer Experience

Our goal isn't simply to launch websites or sell products online — it's to create an industry-leading customer experience that makes it easier for boat owners, captains, service providers, dealers, and OEM partners to learn about our products, access support, purchase parts, and engage with our brands. You'll play a central role in bringing that vision to life.
