Director of Sales Marketing

This role gives Pablo Luna Studio a deliberate, senior marketing voice as the studio moves from a well-regarded regional practice to an internationally active one. The Marketing Director sets the studio's positioning and represents it externally through press, partnerships, and thought leadership.

Beyond external positioning, the role requires a deep understanding of the studio's vision and mission: creating architecture that responsibly builds a connection between people and land.

The role balances innovation with coherence, tracking how the marketing landscape evolves and adopting new strategic tools, while staying true to the identity pillars that have defined the studio from the start.

Chief Strategy Officer, with close working alignment with Pablo Luna on brand and creative direction. Manages the Marketing Manager.

Full-time, in-person, Bali. Not a remote or hybrid role.

The role requires day-to-day proximity to project teams, leadership, and the studio's creative process. Telling the studio's story authentically means being immersed in the team's daily life understanding its organizational structure, staying close to the creative work unfolding across projects, and building the human connections that make the story credible when translated visually, graphically, and audiovisually.

• Strategy — Translate the studio's growth into a positioning and communications plan matched to its actual scale and ambition.
• Thought leadership — Build the studio's public voice through press relationships, awards submissions, speaking opportunities, and published perspective. Position Pablo and the studio as authorities in its areas of distinction: site-rooted design, local materials, international sensitivity.
• Brand stewardship — Own how the brand shows up everywhere: website, proposals, social presence, press materials. Hold that line as the studio takes on more markets and collaborators.
• Cross-functional alignment — Partner with business development so marketing and the sales pipeline pull in the same direction, particularly around referral- and thought-leadership-driven leads.
• Team leadership — Hire, brief, and develop the Marketing Manager and future marketing hires as the team grows.
• International reach & editorial quality — Identify and secure placement across new platforms, publications, and international events to position the brand and the studio's work globally.

• A documented brand and marketing strategy aligned to the studio's international growth, reviewed and owned at leadership level.
• Visible external presence,  press coverage, awards, or speaking engagements.
• A functioning relationship with the Marketing Manager, with the Director spending the majority of their time on strategy and external representation rather than production work.

• Background — Indonesian national, based in or willing to relocate to Bali. Fluent in spoken and written English.
• Writing — Strong editorial reading and writing ability (architectural copywriting) that brings concept and value to project narratives, the website, newsletters, and social captions.
• Experience — 5–10 years in marketing strategy, brand, or communications leadership at high-end creative organizations. Closest fits: architecture, design, hospitality, or thought-leadership brands. Agency-side or in-house both work, provided the portfolio shows senior-level, brand-defining work rather than campaign execution alone.
• Design fluency, not a design background — Able to speak credibly with architects and clients about design intent, without necessarily having trained as a designer.
