Director of Marketing
The Director of Marketing will be the foundational marketing leader for Homes by Villatel, charged with owning the marketing strategy across two equally important and deeply connected mandates. On the consumer side, you will build the brand, drive demand, and curate how every property shows up across direct and OTA channels. On the growth side, you will help bring new inventory onto the platform across three motions: signing new owners across our current and expanding Florida footprint, supporting acquisitions of additional properties and operating companies, and — over time — helping us attract the best brands and operators as we build a broader multi-market platform.
Director of Marketing
- Lead the launch and ongoing build of the Homes by Villatel consumer brand, ensuring every touchpoint reflects our standard-setting positioning and operational excellence.

- Own the merchandising experience on homesbyvillatel.com and continuously optimize listings across Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com, Expedia, and other distribution partners — including titles, descriptions, photography, and search ranking.
- Own the review and reputation program across every channel, ensuring our profile reflects the standards we operate to on the ground.
- Partner closely with Revenue Management to translate occupancy gaps, ADR targets, and new inventory ramp into marketing campaigns, promotions, and channel pushes that support pricing strategy and revenue goals.
- Develop and articulate a differentiated owner-facing position that clearly communicates why Homes by Villatel is the platform to entrust their home to, supported by a complete suite of pitch decks, one-pagers, case studies, and acquisition collateral.
- Architect and operate a robust, measurable owner lead-generation engine across paid, organic, referral, and event channels with full-funnel tracking from first touch to signed agreement.
