About this role

SimpsonScarborough is building a talent pipeline for our growing Fractional CMO service. We partner with higher education institutions navigating a leadership transition, a reorganization, a budget-constrained moment, or a period of significant change, giving them senior marketing leadership without forcing an immediate permanent hire.


What We're Looking For

  • Senior marketing leadership experience (CMO, VP of Marketing, or equivalent)
  • Higher education experience strongly preferred; comparable experience in complex, mission-driven institutions considered
  • A track record of specific, quantifiable outcomes, beyond general oversight
  • Experience holding real budget and personnel authority
  • Comfort diagnosing a marketing function's structure and gaps


Engagement Structure

  • Independent contractor engagement, matched to specific institutional placements as they arise


How This Works

Submitting your information adds you to our Fractional CMO bench. This is an expression of interest, not an application for a specific, immediate role. We'll be in touch when an engagement fits your background and availability.
