Role Specification
Director of Marketing
The Company
Timberlane designs and manufactures premium, custom, made-to-order exterior shutters for discerning homeowners, architects, and builders across the U.S. and internationally. For 30 years, we’ve built our reputation on craftsmanship, precision, and an unwavering commitment to a white-glove customer experience. We are unapologetically the highest price point (and highest quality) in our space. We are a vertically integrated, direct-to-consumer brand operating from a 78,000-square-foot facility in Montgomeryville, PA. Timberlane remains privately owned by its founder.
The Role
This is not a “manage agencies and optimize campaigns” marketing role. This is a brand-building, growth-driving, hands-on leadership role for someone who combines exceptional taste, creative instinct, and executional horsepower. You will own the full marketing function with a clear mandate: elevate the Timberlane brand and materially impact revenue growth. You will think strategically, execute personally, and hold yourself accountable for results. We are looking for someone to elevate our brand, energize our team, and help unlock the next stage of growth. This is a full-time, onsite role.

- Lead photography, design, and content direction with a high standard of taste
Growth & Demand Creation
- Own qualified lead generation and revenue contribution
- Drive a balanced strategy across brand and performance marketing

Execution & Operations

About You
- You have exceptional taste and can prove it (portfolio required)
- You have personally shaped and elevated a premium or luxury brand
- You are creative first, but grounded in business results
- You are a builder and doer, not just a strategist or manager
- You bring positive energy, curiosity, and momentum to your work
- You take full ownership of outcomes, not just activity
- You are passionate about design, architecture, or the built environment
- You are comfortable getting into the weeds and executing at a high level

This Role is NOT for you if

- You prefer managing agencies over doing the work yourself
- You are more comfortable analyzing campaigns than creating them
- You lack interest in design, architecture, or the built environment

- Proven success in brand building and revenue growth
- Experience in premium, luxury, or design-oriented industries preferred
