chief marketing officer jobs

Crop Shop Boutique (CSB) is a fast-growing Australian e-commerce brand redefining athleisure since its launch in 2019 by Rachel Dillon. With a mission to empower women worldwide, CSB blends style, function, and confidence in every piece we create. Our team thrives on relentlessly raising the bar, being perfectly practical, and being unapologetically fearless.

About the Role

The Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) is a core executive leader responsible for driving profitable growth by governing our brand, generating and capturing demand.

This role owns CSB’s brand & marketing ecosystem; from brand positioning and cultural relevance through to acquisition efficiency, retention, and customer lifetime value. The CMO ensures marketing is a commercial growth engine, not a cost centre, and that brand equity is built deliberately as a long-term asset, but not at the cost of practical financial realities.

Operating as a peer to the COO, the CMO is accountable for translating strategy into measurable outcomes, maintaining a rigorous operating cadence, and ensuring marketing capability, investment, and execution scale in line with CSB’s FY30 ambitions.

Key Responsibilities

• Partner with the CEO and Executive Leadership Team to define and execute CSB’s growth strategy through brand, marketing, and partnerships.
• Own the long-term marketing roadmap, ensuring alignment with enterprise objectives, financial targets, and market expansion plans.
• Establish, iterate, and maintain a marketing operating cadence aligned to the broader business rhythm.
• Define and steward CSB’s global brand strategy, positioning, and narrative across all channels and markets.
• Ensure brand consistency, quality, and distinctiveness across campaigns, social, PR, partnerships, and customer touchpoints.
• Act as the executive decision-maker on brand trade-offs and market positioning.
• Own the end-to-end demand engine including paid media, organic growth, CRM, lifecycle marketing, and retention.
• Be accountable for marketing ROI, CAC, LTV, and contribution margin.
• Set strategic direction for channel mix, spend allocation, and experimentation.
• Ensure data, attribution, and insight capabilities enable confident, commercial decision-making.
• Lead CSB’s partnerships ecosystem including creators, ambassadors, collaborators, and brand partnerships.
• Ensure partnerships are commercially disciplined, brand-aligned, and performance-tracked.
• Oversee PR, earned media, and social strategy to drive reach, relevance, and credibility.
• Build long-term partnerships that compound value and are defensible over time.
• Own the brand & marketing budget and planning process in partnership with Finance.
• Monitor and manage spend against forecast, ensuring predictability and discipline.
• Make clear investment trade-offs to maximise return and long-term value.
• Contribute to enterprise-level profitability, margin expansion, and EBITDA outcomes.
• Lead and develop a high-performing senior marketing and brand team.
• Ensure clear accountability, role clarity, and performance expectations across the function.
• Ensure marketing practices comply with legal, regulatory, and brand governance standards.
• Identify and mitigate brand, reputational, and commercial risk.
• Prepare the brand and marketing function for scale across new markets, channels, and business models.
