Chief Marketing Officer (Cmo)

We are biased — but we are pretty sure we are the coolest place to work for, ever. And we really believe somebody's life is going to be changed for the better when they get this job.

We design and print custom t-shirts for groups across the country.

And we do it all while having fun with some of the nicest people on the planet (here's a little behind the scenes...https://imgur.com/a/HD6wIXa

Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) – Write Our Next Chapter

About Us:

People don’t just wear clothes—they wear stories. At Emerson Coast, we transform custom apparel into something meaningful—something that helps communities celebrate who they are, together. For nearly seven years, we’ve designed apparel for sororities, fraternities, and groups who value authenticity, connection, and a personal touch.

Emerson Coast is part of a growing family of brands, including Jamison Pointe (serving fraternities) and Kindsor (for non-Greek groups), with plans to expand into additional divisions in the near future. These brands create exciting opportunities for growth, innovation, and collaboration—for you and for everyone on the team.

Now, we’re ready for our next chapter, and we’re looking for a marketing leader who can turn promising ideas into unforgettable stories.

Who We’re Looking For:

We need a marketing maestro—someone who can set the stage, orchestrate the chorus, and lead our entire marketing and sales team to an encore-worthy performance. As our CMO, you won’t just be calling the shots; you’ll be rolling up your sleeves and turning big-picture visions into tangible growth.

If you’ve got a flair for building brands, a knack for data-driven decision-making, and a love for guiding teams to new heights, this gig might just be your creative dream come true.

What You’ll Do:

• Shape Strategy: Define a long-term marketing and sales plan that solidifies our market position.

• Lead the Team: Recruit, mentor, and motivate team members, creating an environment of trust and innovation.

• Elevate the Brand: Craft a brand presence that feels authentic, relevant, and consistently engaging.

• Data-Driven Decisions: Translate insights into action, fine-tuning campaigns for maximum impact.

• Collaborate & Innovate: Work hand-in-hand with design, production, and leadership, ensuring every launch and campaign hits the mark.

What You’ll Need:

• Proven Results: Multiple years of marketing leadership where you’ve driven revenue, expanded audiences, and strengthened brands in the sales or marketing field. (Sorry this is NOT an entry level position. We're looking for experienced leadership.)

• Forward-Looking Strategy: The ability to anticipate market shifts, identify growth opportunities, and adapt quickly.

• Team Empowerment: Strong leadership that inspires trust, encourages innovation, and helps team members excel.

• Tech & Analytics Proficiency: Skilled in using CRM systems, marketing automation software, and analytics tools to inform decisions.

• Innovation with AI: Comfortable exploring and leveraging AI-driven solutions to personalize campaigns, analyze trends, and stay ahead of the digital curve.

• Cultural Awareness: An understanding of what resonates with audiences today, maintaining authenticity without chasing every fad.

Why Join Us?

• Team Spirit: Join a close-knit crew of genuinely great people—teammates you’d work with even if there wasn’t a paycheck involved. It’s a group that supports big ideas, celebrates every win, and has each other’s backs through any challenge.

• Impact: Shape the future of a growing, creative company that values authenticity and innovation.

• Work/Life Harmony: We value in-person collaboration in Northwest Arkansas, but if you’re not local yet, please apply. We offer relocation assistance and can discuss occasional travel options to keep you connected.

• Compensation: Competitive salary in the range of $100,000–$150,000 (based on experience), plus performance bonuses.

• Perks: Paid Time Off, Flexible Schedule, Health Savings Account, Retirement Plan and Maternity Leave and some of the BEST company retreats around. Retreats that build stronger teams and lasting friendships. Here's a little tk tok behind the scenes of a team retreat https://imgur.com/a/HD6wIXa
