About this role
Position Overview
The Sr. Director of Integrated Marketing is the strategic driver of JETSET's franchise marketing engine, owning how national marketing strategy translates into local execution across every market. This role leads the regional Integrated Marketing Managers who carry that strategy into the field, helping them localize campaigns and support each studio while accounting for its nuances: market, maturity, ownership, and performance.
Reporting to the VP of Marketing, this role sets the integrated marketing strategy, builds the quarterly marketing guides in partnership with the marketing leadership team, and makes sure every moving piece (playbooks, presales, activations, studio support tiers, and reporting) is resourced, sequenced, and delivered. It collaborates cross-functionally with the Operations, Franchise Development, Training, and Real Estate & Construction teams on opening timelines and studio performance.
This role is ideal for a multi-unit marketing leader who builds teams, systems, and trust with franchise owners in equal measure. Comfortable moving between strategy and the field, holding firm on brand standards, and accountable for studio-level results and marketing ROI, not just execution.
Key Responsibilities
Integrated Marketing Strategy

- Set regional and market-level priorities based on performance data, market maturity, and growth plans
- Shape the franchisor–franchisee marketing model, keeping a "pull, not push" posture where owners drive local activity and HQ provides tools, guidance, and support

Strategy to Execution
- Build the operating plan that turns strategy into action: roadmaps, timelines, owners, and dependencies across the team and partner functions
- Own the 16-week pre-opening marketing playbook and presales training program in partnership with the Sales and New Studio Opening team, keeping them current and consistently delivered
- Anticipate resource needs and bottlenecks, and escalate trade-offs early
Program Management

- Oversee the activation approval process, including turnaround standards, approval criteria, and consistent decisions across regions
Performance, Reporting & Insights
- Partner with VP of Marketing on reporting rhythm for local marketing performance and the Integrated Marketing team
- Identify trends using market-level data (CRM, digital, ad spend, studio feedback) into clear insights and recommendations
- Iterate on playbooks as more data and performance becomes available to further localize initiatives and planning
Brand Standards & Governance
- Enforce brand compliance standards for local marketing and network-wide initiatives
- Act as the final escalation point for activation approvals and brand standard disputes
- Partner with Brand Marketing to keep local execution consistent with the national brand
Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Partner with the Operations, Franchise Development, Product & Talent, and Real Estate & Construction teams on opening timelines and studio performance
- Work with the marketing leadership team on campaign planning, asset needs, and channel strategy
