Head of Marketing (Home Trades Services)

We’re a fast-growing Brisbane-based plumbing business currently generating approximately 10,000 inbound leads per year with a fleet of 12 service vehicles.

Our goal is clear: scale to 50 trucks and 50,000+ inbound calls annually within the next 24 months.

To achieve this, we are building a high-performance in-house growth engine and are looking for a proven performance marketer with a track record of scaling local service businesses. We want someone who has delivered these results before and can help us build a predictable, scalable lead-generation machine.

The Role

This is a performance marketing role—not a brand or design position.

You will own lead generation end-to-end, with a clear mandate: increase qualified inbound calls while maintaining profitable acquisition costs.

You will be responsible for strategy, execution, optimisation, reporting, and accountability across all lead-generation channels, including:

- Google Ads / Paid Search
- Local SEO and Google Business Profile
- Call tracking, attribution, and conversion optimisation
- Direct response marketing
- Offline lead-generation channels including flyers, radio, and local campaigns

You may coordinate creative resources where required, but your primary strength is performance marketing, lead generation, and commercial outcomes.

Key Responsibilities

- Scale inbound calls from approximately 10,000 to 50,000+ annually
- Own and optimise paid acquisition channels, particularly Google Ads
- Improve lead quality and increase booked-job conversion rates
- Reduce cost per lead and cost per booked job




- Build and manage tracking, attribution, and reporting systems
- Plan, execute, and optimise direct response campaigns
- Analyse performance data daily and adjust strategy and budgets accordingly
- Work closely with operations to ensure marketing performance translates into business growth

About You

You have successfully scaled a local service business before, ideally within plumbing, electrical, HVAC, trades, home services, or a similar industry.

You are:

- Highly analytical and commercially minded
- Obsessed with ROI and measurable outcomes
- Strong in data, tracking, attribution, and optimisation
- Results-driven and accountable for performance
- Proven track record of scaling lead generation by 10x or more
- Deep expertise in Google Ads (non-negotiable)
- Strong experience with call-based lead generation
- Experience building reporting, attribution, and conversion tracking systems
- Experience marketing local service businesses is highly regarded

What Success Looks Like

- Consistent month-on-month growth in qualified inbound calls
- Reduced cost per lead and cost per booked job
- Predictable and scalable lead flow capable of supporting 20+ trucks
- Marketing performance that directly contributes to business growth and profitability

Why Join Us

- Ambitious growth plans with solid leadership backing
- Full ownership of marketing performance and strategy
- Opportunity to build and lead an in-house marketing team
- Performance-based incentives aligned with results
- Direct impact on the growth of a rapidly expanding business
