Vice President Marketing

Position Summary: If you’re a marketing leader who loves to build—and wants to see your work show up in real growth—we’d like to meet you. The American Staffing Association is one of the longest-standing organizations in the staffing, recruiting, and workforce solutions space, and we’re entering a period of real transformation. Artificial intelligence and sustained pressure on demand and pricing are reshaping the industry, and ASA is investing in a focused new strategy to help our members navigate that change. We’re seeking a strategic, hands-on Vice President, Marketing to lead that transformation in the market. Reporting to our President and CEO and serving on the Senior Management Team, you’ll set ASA’s marketing direction and turn our advocacy, compliance, research, and data, along with the connections we create across the industry, into campaigns and thought leadership that members rely on and return to. You’ll build ASA’s audience model—recognizing that the owner of a small independent firm and a function leader inside a large staffing company think very differently—and use it to shape our messaging, content, and channel strategy. You’ll be accountable for membership growth and non-dues revenue, and for knowing which efforts actually produce those results. Working closely with Membership, Engagement, Research, Finance, and our conventions team, you’ll lead integrated campaigns that drive member acquisition and retention, event registration, and sponsor and exhibitor demand. You’ll rebuild our email strategy, oversee our website, social media, SEO, and marketing automation, and build the attribution model and dashboards that connect marketing activity to results. You’ll also lead a small team, own the department budget, and manage our agency and vendor partners. This is a player-coach role. You’ll shape the big picture and be just as comfortable rolling up your sleeves to get the work done. We think it’s a rare chance to make a visible impact on an organization and an industry. We also offer genuine work-life balance and a hybrid schedule: in our office in historic Old Town Alexandria, Virginia, Tuesday through Thursday, and remote on Mondays and Fridays. We prefer candidates in the Washington, D.C., area who can work this hybrid schedule, but we will also consider fully remote candidates, with periodic travel to Alexandria as needed.

Compensation and Benefits: The anticipated base salary range for this position is $180,000 to $200,000, depending on experience and qualifications. ASA offers an excellent benefits package, including medical coverage with an employer-funded HRA, dental and vision coverage, employer-paid life and disability insurance, flexible spending accounts, an employee assistance program, a 401(k) with a company contribution, paid time off, 12 paid holidays plus two half-days, paid parental leave, and volunteer time off.

Qualifications: The successful candidate will have a bachelor’s degree in marketing, communications, business, or a related field (or equivalent experience) and at least 15 years of progressive marketing experience, including 10 or more years leading a marketing function or team. You’ll bring a proven record of growing revenue, customers, or members through integrated marketing, with measurable results to show for it, along with strong digital experience across email, web, social, content, and marketing automation. Experience building and managing a department budget and overseeing agencies and vendors is required, as are strong analytical skills—the ability to turn data, dashboards, and market research into clear recommendations—and excellent written and verbal communication, including presenting strategy to executives and a board. Experience marketing to or within the staffing, recruiting, or workforce solutions industry is preferred. B2B marketing experience and hands-on experience with Salesforce, email automation platforms, and web analytics are also preferred. Just as important, you’ll thrive on a small, collaborative senior team, bring a sense of humor along with your ambition, and care as much about your colleagues’ success as your own. To apply, please send a cover letter and resume to Bob Rudisin, Chief Human Resources Officer, at. Applications will be accepted through December 18, 2026.
