Lead Strategy. Drive Results. Build Client Trust. Make an Impact.
We’re hiring a sharp, strategic, and dependable Performance Marketing Director to lead our Paid Media and SEO departments—owning results across Google Ads, Meta (Facebook/Instagram), Microsoft Ads, LinkedIn, and all organic search initiatives. You will oversee a blended team of paid media managers, SEO specialists, and freelancers, while also working cross-functionally with project managers, designers, and copywriters.
This role combines leadership, strategic thinking, performance accountability, and hands-on support across both paid and organic channels. You’ll shape and refine high-impact marketing strategies, mentor team members, and continuously improve systems, reporting, and campaign performance—measured in leads, rankings, and ROI , not vanity metrics.
You’ll act as the internal performance voice for Halstead’s clients—ensuring all marketing channels work together to generate results that support long-term growth.
This role is 99% remote with possible training or similar travel, about once a year (some years, not at all).
At Halstead Media Group, we help lawn, landscape, and outdoor living companies eliminate instability, fuel growth, and shape a lasting legacy with year-round, specialized marketing systems. As a StoryBrand Certified Agency, we lead with clarity, empathy, and results that matter.
Our clients choose us—and stay with us—because we deliver best-in-class ROI, strategic thinking, and a genuine human connection. We act like co-owners in our clients’ growth, embrace change, and move fast. We believe growth comes from action, curiosity, and collaboration.
