The Opportunity: Fractional CMO

We’re looking for a Fractional Chief Marketing Officer to elevate the MikeWorldWide brand as a business, thought leader, and employer. This role is ideal for a high-impact strategist who thrives in brand-building environments, can develop modern marketing programs from the ground up, and wants to shape the public narrative of an agency that’s constantly evolving.

You’ll partner closely with our CEO and the Executive Leadership team to own the external face of the agency—architecting and executing a marketing strategy that drives visibility, reputation, and growth across key practice areas and business units.

• Support Marketing team with the development and distribution of the agency website/blog, email marketing, and social content that ladders back to brand positioning

Client-Facing Marketing Assets:

• Work with the design and strategy teams to update and evolve marketing collateral, including credentials, case studies, and sizzle reels.
• Shape our agency “leave behinds” with a strong voice and clear hierarchy of value—moving away from capabilities and toward provable business impact.

Cross-Functional Leadership:

• Help shape internal marketing operations, from campaign planning to tracking and reporting on KPIs.
