Job Summary

Own the end-to-end marketing program for a historic hospitality brand, from campaign architecture and on-site content to niche lead channels and partnerships, driving direct bookings and event inquiries.

  • Lead cross-channel campaigns across Meta, TikTok, YouTube and Google Ads.
  • Build and optimize on-site experiences, content, and partner ecosystems.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Campaign Architecture & Direct Bookings: Build, deploy, and manage organic and paid social campaigns (Meta Ads, TikTok, YouTube, Google Ads) designed to convert engagement into direct lodging stays, wedding inquiries, and corporate event sales.
  • Hands-On Content Creation: Spend time across our campus to shoot, edit, and publish high-quality native video and photos. Document active renovations (like the third-floor expansion and elevator install at Harbor House), behind-the-scenes preservation stories, and vibrant community interactions.
  • Specialized Hospitality Lead Platforms: Oversee and optimize listings across niche lead generation channels including Zola, WeddingPro (The Knot + WeddingWire), PMS tools (Cloudbeds), and localized SEO profiles.
  • Digital Audit & Asset Management: Conduct an immediate deep-dive audit of our existing digital footprint (sacketsharborhouseinn.com, barracksinnsacketsharbor.com, and local listings). Fix broken guest journeys, update imagery, and manage ongoing web updates.
  • Local Partnerships & Event Activation: Build relationships with local wedding vendors, caterers, and regional media. Pitch corporate clients and charities for meeting spaces at The Venue, co-lead our annual bridal expo, and represent the brand on-site during key live events and high-season activations.
  • Software & Stack Ownership: Since we are intentionally under-invested in marketing tech today, you will have total autonomy to select, build, and manage your own marketing software, analytics, and productivity stack.

Requirements

  • Proven Portfolio & Work Samples: A ready-to-share portfolio demonstrating past campaigns, native video content, and measurable direct booking or revenue growth.
  • Boots-on-the-Ground Execution: Resourceful and independent; eager to capture raw content on-site, build systems from scratch, and manage projects without hand-holding.
  • Multi-Platform Ad Expertise: Proficient in deploying organic and paid campaigns across Meta (Facebook/Instagram), TikTok, YouTube, and Google Ads.
  • Niche Lead Generation Knowledge: Deep familiarity with Zola, WeddingPro (The Knot + WeddingWire), and local SEO best practices.
  • Digital & Visual Editor: Intuitively understands social algorithms and trends; highly skilled at capturing and editing reels/short-form video on the fly.
  • Entrepreneurial Mindset & Passion: Thrives in small, agile teams where adaptability is essential; genuine enthusiasm for lifestyle branding, community spaces, and preserving local history.
  • Portfolio: Please be able to share with us, we look forward to seeing some of your creative work.

Preferred

  • Familiarity with property management systems (PMS) like Cloudbeds or Hospitable.
  • Ability to perform basic website maintenance and analyze traffic patterns in Google Analytics.
