Summary of Role

HUB International is seeking a VP of Marketing, HUB Digital, to serve as the operational engine of the HUB Digital Marketing COE - a center of excellence built across four digitally native insurance businesses (VIU by HUB, Insureon, Squaremouth, and CM&F Group) collectively projecting $180M in 2026 revenue.

Reporting to the Chief Marketing Officer of HUB International, this role is accountable for driving cross-portfolio digital marketing performance through structured knowledge transfer and shared best practices; establishing consistent performance visibility across all four businesses; and connecting HUB Digital to the broader Marketing COE - collaborating with the Head of Brand and Head of Communications on brand architecture and internal and external narrative.

This leader owns the COE's operating rhythm, manages or supports agency relationships at the portfolio level, and serves as the connector across the teams

Core Responsibilities

COE Operations and Knowledge Transfer

Design and run the COE operating rhythm - cross-portfolio forums, knowledge transfer sessions, and shared working cadences that the four business marketing teams actually show up to and benefit from

Assess marketing capabilities across VIU by HUB, Insureon, Squaremouth, and CM&F Group using the established capability map, and maintain a living view of where each business leads and where gaps exist

Identify the highest-value transfer opportunities -and build the playbooks, sessions, and accountability structures that move those capabilities to the businesses that need them

Ensure knowledge transfer produces measurable lift, not just learning - every session should have a before and an after
Digital Marketing Performance and Governance

Establish consistent performance definitions and reporting across all four businesses - ROAS, CPL, CVR, and other core metrics - so leadership has a single view of how the portfolio is performing

Manage and hold agency partners accountable across paid search, programmatic, paid social, SEO, content, and digital PR, ensuring performance against agreed benchmarks

Lead test-and-learn programs with disciplined measurement, documenting results in formats that allow other businesses to adopt what works

Bring AI fluency to marketing execution - AEO and GEO content strategy, AI-assisted production, performance analysis - and help each business advance its own AI marketing capability
Brand Architecture and Communications - COE Connector

Serve as the Digital COE's primary connection point to the Head of Brand and Head of Communications, ensuring HUB Digital's needs and priorities are represented in enterprise brand and communications work

Bring the four businesses' marketing @context into brand architecture conversations - what each brand stands for, where there is a throughline, and where differentiation must be preserved

Collaborate with the Head of Communications on the internal narrative for HUB Digital, ensuring enterprise leadership, the field, and internal stakeholders understand what the Digital Division is building and what is not changing

Collaborate with Head of Communications and brand leaders on PR strategy

Flag brand and communications gaps or misalignments as they surface across the portfolio and route them to the right COE owners - brand to the Head of Brand, comms to the Head of Communications - with the @context needed to act
Executive Reporting and EMT Connectivity

Deliver monthly marketing performance synthesis to the CMO and Digital EMT, connecting channel-level data to business outcomes and COE progress

Represent the Marketing COE in EMT discussions, surfacing what the portfolio is learning and what decisions are needed

Track competitor marketing activity across the digital insurance landscape and bring forward relevant signals, threats, and opportunities

Ideal Candidate Profile

The right candidate brings a combination of hands-on digital marketing execution experience and the organizational intelligence to operate effectively across four businesses. Skills for success in this role include:

10+ years of progressive digital marketing experience with a proven track record of hitting performance targets across paid search, programmatic, paid social, and display - this is someone who has run campaigns, not just supervised them

Experience managing multiple brands or accounts simultaneously, with the ability to tailor strategy to distinct customer segments without losing discipline or coherence

Deep fluency in performance marketing economics - ROAS, CPL, CPA, CVR, LTV - and demonstrated ability to build measurement frameworks and hold agency partners accountable to them

Genuine AI proficiency: hands-on experience applying AI tools to marketing strategy, content production, AEO or GEO strategy, or performance analysis - already using what works, not waiting to see how it matures

A connector's instinct - able to recognize when a problem belongs to a peer's domain, bring the right @context to that conversation, and move work forward collaboratively rather than accumulating scope

A builder's instinct: sees a gap, builds the framework, runs the process, documents the result - and does it without waiting for perfect conditions or full resources

Comfort in a federated structure where influence and credibility drive outcomes more than authority, and where earning trust with the business teams is the prerequisite for everything else

Strong communication and storytelling skills - able to translate complex performance data into clear executive narratives, and able to make coordination feel valuable rather than burdensome to the business teams
