Job Description

VP, Performance Marketing

About Heartland Roadshow
Heartland Roadshow is a nationwide, growth-focused company that acquires valuable estate items directly from the public through a network of events held across the U.S. Often compared to Antiques Roadshow, our events provide a professional, secure environment where individuals can sell gold, silver, coins, watches, jewelry, and other collectibles.

Our business is built on a scalable, multi-market model driven by direct-response marketing, operational discipline, and a strong focus on measurable performance.

Our marketing engine has historically been driven by direct mail, and we are now expanding into TV, paid social, and additional acquisition channels in a meaningful way.

We are seeking a high-level, data-driven marketing operator to take ownership of our acquisition strategy and help scale the business to the next level.
