Director, Marketing & Communications

FCL Builders • Full-time • Itasca, IL • 3d ago

Director of Marketing & Communications

Not a traditional marketing role. A strategic leadership seat at the table.

We’re looking for a Director of Marketing & Communications to operate as a chief-of-staff–level partner to executive leadership, connecting strategy, messaging, and execution across the organization. As the head of Marketing & Communications, you’ll play a direct role in shaping strategy and execution.

Why Join FCL Builders

Influence Strategy: Play a key role in how the company communicates, aligns, and grows
Build What Matters: Help tell the story behind complex, high-impact projects across industrial and infrastructure markets
Become an Employee Owner: As part of our ESOP, your contributions directly impact long-term value—for the company and for you
Lead With Impact: Partner with leadership to drive clarity, alignment, and execution across the business
Great People, Great Workplace: Proud to be Great Place to Work® Certified for the third year in a row—because trust, accountability, and performance matter here

What You’ll Do

Partner with executive leadership

Serve as a trusted communication and strategy partner to the executive team
Develop executive messaging, leadership presentations, and board-level communications
Help translate strategy into clear priorities, messaging, and execution across the enterprise

Strengthen market position

Lead external marketing and brand positioning in targeted industrial markets
Ensure consistent messaging across business development, marketing, and client engagement
Support major pursuits and strategic accounts with compelling presentations and narratives

Drive strategic alignment

Help communicate enterprise strategy across regions, offices, and field operations
Align internal messaging with company priorities, culture, and safety values
Track and communicate progress against key strategic initiatives

Enable growth

Equip business development teams with high-impact marketing and sales enablement materials
Support strategic pursuits, executive briefings, and industry positioning efforts

Own communications

Lead internal communications that connect field, office, and leadership around company vision, culture, and priorities
Own Executive & Board Communications including presentations, board decks, and leadership messaging

Partner with leadership to shape messaging, priorities, and strategic alignment across the business

Why This Role Stands Out

You’ll partner directly with executive leadership and the Board
You’ll influence how strategy gets executed—not just communicated
You’ll play a key role in growth, pursuits, and market positioning
You’ll operate at the intersection of business, communication, and operations

What We’re Looking For

BS/BA in Marketing, Communications, Business Administration or related field
12+ years in marketing, communications, or strategy
3–5+ years in a senior leadership role
Strong executive communication and storytelling ability
Experience supporting business development, pursuits, or growth initiatives
Ability to influence across teams and drive alignment in a complex organization
Experience in construction, engineering, or project-based industries is a plus

If you’re looking for a role where you can shape how a company communicates, aligns, and executes—at a strategic level—this is worth a conversation.
