Fractional Chief Marketing Officer (CMO)
--------------------------------------------
Company: Vulcury LLC
Location: US
Engagement: Fractional / Part-time (scope-based; potential to expand)
Reporting Line: CEO (based in California, United States)
Compensation: Competitive, commensurate with experience and scope
### About Vulcury
Vulcury LLC is a venture studio and growth advisory firm that builds, incubates, and scales businesses across a diverse set of industries, while also supporting select external growth engagements. The firm operates a centralised growth function that spans:
- Internally incubated companies at varying stages of maturity
- Client engagements across multiple sectors
- Research- and content-driven initiatives related to financial markets and investment themes
While a meaningful portion of Vulcury’s current work supports manufacturers and industrial businesses through its subsidiary TrustBridge, the broader growth mandate includes technology-enabled services, professional services, and investment-related research and publishing efforts.
### Role Overview
Vulcury is seeking a Fractional Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) based in Sydney to provide senior marketing leadership across its multi-industry portfolio of businesses and engagements.
This role is well-suited for an experienced marketing executive who is comfortable operating across different verticals, business models, and audience types—including B2B services, industrial and manufacturing ecosystems, and financial or investment-oriented content and platforms.
The Fractional CMO will work closely with a CEO based in California, collaborate with senior leaders across Vulcury’s subsidiaries, and oversee a primarily India-based execution team responsible for day-to-day growth activities across channels.
This is a hands-on leadership role, requiring active involvement in strategy, prioritisation, review, and refinement—not merely high-level advisory input.
### Key Responsibilities
#### Marketing Strategy & Leadership
- Define and refine marketing strategies across multiple businesses, industries, and engagement types.
- Establish clear growth priorities, sequencing, and success metrics across initiatives.
- Balance near-term demand generation with longer-term brand and authority building.
#### Channel Oversight & Execution
Provide senior-level oversight and guidance across a broad mix of channels, including:
- Paid social and digital advertising
- SEO and website optimization
- Content marketing and thought leadership (blogs, long-form articles, research-driven content)
- Email campaigns, lifecycle marketing, and SDR-support workflows
- Webinars, podcasts, and virtual events
- Media creation and multi-platform distribution
These efforts may support:
- Operating businesses within the Vulcury portfolio
- External client growth engagements
- Investment research, commentary, and financial thought leadership initiatives
#### Team Leadership (India-Based)
- Lead and mentor a distributed marketing and growth team based primarily in India.
- Translate strategic objectives into clear, executable work streams.
- Ensure quality, consistency, and performance across channels and verticals.
#### Cross-Functional & Cross-Regional Collaboration
- Interface directly with the U.S.-based CEO and senior leadership on priorities and performance.
- Coordinate with product, sales, research, and operations leaders to ensure alignment.
- Adapt messaging and channel strategy to different buyer types, sales cycles, and audiences.
#### Industry-Specific Context (As Relevant)
- Support initiatives related to manufacturing, supply chain, and industrial services where applicable.
- Contribute to growth and content strategies related to financial investments, markets, and research-driven products.
- Adjust marketing approaches to suit technical, regulated, or high-trust environments.
### Engagement Details
- Structure: Fractional / part-time, scope-based
- Location: Sydney, Australia (remote-friendly with cross-time-zone collaboration)
- Travel: Occasional travel may be beneficial but is not required
### Benefits
### Why This Role
- Fractional flexibility: Senior-level influence without full-time constraint.
- Industry breadth: Exposure to multiple sectors, audiences, and growth challenges.
- Global collaboration: Work at the intersection of U.S.-based leadership and India-based execution.
- Substantive impact: Direct ownership of strategy, prioritisation, and execution quality.
- Expandable scope: Opportunity to deepen or broaden engagement as Vulcury scales.
