• Big Idea ObSessions

• Experiential marketing and activations

• Social media and influencer marketing

• Brand development

• Website and app development

Our approach combines strategic rigor, creativity, consumer understanding, and behavioral insight to help clients solve meaningful business problems and drive growth.

The Role

We are seeking a Managing Director to partner directly with Boombox’s President and division leadership to help scale the business into a nationally respected, category-defining boutique agency.

This is a senior executive leadership role focused on growth, client leadership, and helping shape the future of the division.

We do not believe in traditional sales organizations or disconnected business development teams.

We believe in a seller-doer model — where senior leaders build trusted relationships, win business through expertise and credibility, and remain strategically involved in the work to ensure exceptional outcomes and enduring client partnerships.

Today, Boombox has a concentrated customer base anchored by one very large client, one large client, and a handful of smaller relationships. A key priority for this role will be helping diversify and expand the client base while increasing the scale and strategic depth of existing partnerships.

The ideal candidate is entrepreneurial, highly strategic, commercially driven, creatively inspired, and relentlessly curious about people and consumer behavior.

  • Represent Boombox in pitches, strategic conversations, industry events, and executive-level client engagements
  • Help position Boombox as a strategic growth partner, uniquely leveraging best-in-class consumer insights, rather than the traditional agency vendor

  • Identify opportunities to broaden engagements across experiential, social/influencer, branding, digital, and strategic offerings
  • Serve as a senior executive presence and trusted advisor on key accounts
  • Anticipate client needs and proactively bring new thinking, ideas, and opportunities

Strategic & Creative Leadership

  • Remain actively involved in engagements at a senior strategic level
  • Provide leadership and oversight to ensure exceptional work quality and client impact
  • Collaborate with strategy, creative, insights, and delivery teams to shape breakthrough programs and ideas
  • Bring strong perspective across brand strategy, creative development, customer experience, and integrated marketing
  • Champion the use of market research, behavioral science, analytics, and customer understanding in the development of more effective marketing programs

Leadership & Firm Building

  • Serve as a core member of the Boombox leadership team
  • Help shape growth strategy, capability development, and long-term vision for the division
  • Contribute to talent development, mentoring, and culture building
