About Rolen
Rolen is a fast-growing construction and development platform focused on residential construction, rebuilding, renovation, ADUs, and development opportunities in the Los Angeles market. We combine local execution with centralized systems, disciplined project management, transparent communication, and strong field-level coordination.
We are building a scalable growth platform: strategic leadership at the top, local relationship-building and sales presence on the ground, and centralized/offshore support for research, data collection, CRM management, campaign execution, content production, reporting, and follow-up.
We are looking for a highly organized, hands-on growth operator who can help turn this vision into a repeatable sales and marketing system.
Role Overview
The Director of Growth, Marketing & Sales Operations will be responsible for building, managing, and improving Rolen’s complete revenue-generation system.
This is not a pure branding role, and it is not a traditional sales role. The strategic positioning and high-level market direction will come from leadership. Your job is to translate that strategy into clear messaging, campaigns, CRM workflows, sales processes, lead-generation systems, reporting structures, and daily execution.
The right candidate is both strategic and operational, but especially strong in execution. You should be able to manage multiple marketing channels, coordinate offshore support, supervise local sales activity, improve CRM discipline, and make sure every lead, campaign, and sales opportunity is tracked, followed up, and moved forward.
Key Responsibilities1. Growth Strategy Execution
Work directly with leadership to translate Rolen’s strategic direction into practical marketing, sales, and lead-generation initiatives.
Responsibilities include:
- Turning leadership’s strategic positioning into campaigns, messaging, website copy, sales scripts, email sequences, and follow-up workflows.
- Helping define and refine target customer segments, including homeowners, investors, developers, rebuild clients, ADU clients, real estate professionals, and referral partners.
- Building repeatable systems for lead generation, qualification, follow-up, conversion, and reporting.
- Creating clear weekly and monthly execution plans tied to measurable growth goals.
2. Branding, Positioning & Trust-Building Execution
Rolen’s growth depends on trust. The Director will help communicate Rolen’s credibility, transparency, local market knowledge, and execution capabilities across all customer-facing materials.
Responsibilities include:
- Improving website messaging, service pages, landing pages, and customer-facing materials.
- Creating trust-building content such as case studies, project summaries, before/after stories, client education pieces, FAQs, proposal templates, and follow-up materials.
- Coordinating photography, video, project documentation, testimonials, and social proof.
- Ensuring that Rolen’s messaging is consistent across website, email, proposals, ads, social media, sales scripts, and CRM workflows.
- Helping position Rolen as a reliable, transparent, and highly organized construction partner in the Los Angeles market.
3. CRM Ownership & Sales Pipeline Management
The Director will own the CRM and ensure it becomes the central operating system for marketing and sales.
Responsibilities include:
- Selecting, setting up, managing, or improving CRM platforms such as HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Zoho, GoHighLevel, Monday, or similar systems.
- Creating pipeline stages from lead source to qualified lead, appointment, proposal, follow-up, signed contract, and referral.
- Building automations, reminders, lead scoring, follow-up sequences, dashboards, and reporting workflows.
- Ensuring all leads are properly entered, categorized, assigned, followed up, and tracked.
- Monitoring response times, conversion rates, pipeline value, lead source performance, and sales team activity.
- Reducing founder involvement by creating clear systems, accountability, and reporting.

- LinkedIn outreach
- Realtor and broker outreach
- Investor outreach
- Local community campaigns

Responsibilities include:
- Managing website updates, landing pages, lead forms, service pages, and calls to action.

- Improving website conversion and user experience.
- Making sure project photos, case studies, service descriptions, and trust-building content are current.
- Tracking website performance, traffic sources, form submissions, and campaign attribution.
6. AI Tools, Automation & Content Production
The Director should be comfortable using modern AI tools to improve speed, consistency, and output quality.
Responsibilities include:
- Using AI tools for content drafting, campaign ideation, email personalization, ad copy, research, reporting, sales scripts, video repurposing, and CRM support.
- Creating repeatable AI-assisted workflows for marketing and sales execution.
- Managing offshore or remote teams using clear templates, prompts, SOPs, and quality-control systems.
- Staying current on useful AI tools for marketing automation, content creation, data enrichment, and campaign distribution.
7. Offshore Team Coordination & Workflow Management

Responsibilities include:
- Defining which tasks should be handled offshore versus locally.
- Creating SOPs, checklists, templates, and quality-control processes.
- Managing offshore assistants, CRM specialists, researchers, content coordinators, designers, editors, or campaign support staff.
- Ensuring offshore work is accurate, timely, and useful to local sales and leadership.
- Building a system where local teams focus on relationships and closing, while centralized support handles preparation, research, follow-up, and reporting.
8. Local Sales Team Support & Accountability

Responsibilities include:
- Creating sales scripts, call guides, objection-handling materials, follow-up templates, and meeting-preparation documents.

- Monitoring calls, appointments, follow-ups, and conversion rates.
- Ensuring local salespeople are prepared with the right materials, target lists, CRM notes, and next steps.
