A Sydney marketing practice working with trade, construction and care businesses is looking for an experienced marketing specialist to lead its client projects.

We are a new practice, but not new to the work. It grew out of a consulting firm that has spent years inside these businesses, and the marketing work started there: websites, campaigns, software and client reporting delivered alongside the consulting. The practice now stands on its own, with a delivery team in place and a clear method. What it needs is a senior, local face for its clients.

This is a client-facing role with a team behind it. You are the person the client deals with. You set the direction, brief the delivery team, assign the work and sign it off. The team does the production: websites, SEO, Google Ads, content and software. You stay at the level of strategy, client and quality.

Why start with us now

Coming in at this stage means you shape how client work is run rather than inheriting someone else’s way of doing it. As the practice grows, the person who has led those projects well is the obvious choice to lead more of them, and to take on a larger role if that suits you. We would rather build that with someone over time than hire for it cold.

Built around your other commitments The work is project-based and designed to fit around a career you already have. If you run your own consultancy, work part time, are between roles, or want senior client work without a full-time commitment, this is built for you. You take on projects when they suit you, work your own hours, and are paid a fixed fee per project.

What you will do

- Own the client relationship on your projects: kick-off, monthly reviews, the straight conversations




- Translate what the client wants into a clear brief, then assign and prioritise the work across the delivery team
- Supervise delivery, review everything before the client sees it, and hold it to the brief
- Present results against jobs won and revenue, not clicks
- Identify the next piece of work and scope it

Selection criteria

You will need to meet all of these to be considered:

- 7+ years in marketing, including at least 3 years leading client accounts or projects in an agency or consultancy
- You have directed a team or external suppliers to deliver marketing work, rather than producing it all yourself
- Working knowledge of Google Ads, SEO and website projects: enough to brief them, review them and spot when something is wrong
- You have presented marketing results to business owners or executives and handled the questions that followed
- Based in Sydney and available for in-person client meetings
- An ABN and the ability to invoice as a contractor
- Full working rights in Australia

Strongly preferred

- Experience with trade, construction, aged care, disability or allied health businesses, or a clear understanding of how those businesses win work
- Comfortable working alongside a remote delivery team

This role is not for a junior marketer, a specialist who wants to run the campaigns hands-on, or anyone looking for full time employment.

How it works

- A fixed fee agreed per project before it starts, invoiced through your ABN
- Hours flex with the project. Most of the work is remote, with client meetings around Sydney
- Non-exclusive. Keep your other clients and commitments
- Start with one project. If it works for both sides, more follow
