About Harbinger

Harbinger is an American commercial electric vehicle (EV) company on a mission to transform an industry starving for innovation. Harbinger’s best-in-class team of EV, battery, and drivetrain experts have pooled their deep experience to bring a first-of-its-kind EV platform to support the growing demand for medium-duty EVs and Hybrids. Harbinger: Familiar Form, Revolutionary Foundation.

The Role

Harbinger goes to market through a growing network of commercial vehicle dealers. As Dealer Marketing Manager, you'll turn Harbinger's national strategy into strong local-market execution — the primary marketing partner for our dealer network, helping dealers build practical plans, launch campaigns, generate qualified demand, and deliver a consistent customer experience.

Reporting to the Senior Marketing Manager and working closely with Sales, you'll build Harbinger's dealer marketing program from the playbook up: enablement toolkits, co-op/MDF programs, localized campaigns, and clean lead flow. You'll turn complex incentive programs (HVIP, Sourcewell, FEAP) into dealer-ready sales tools. The role requires equal strength in relationship management, field execution, and performance analysis.

What you'll own

  • Dealer marketing strategy: Translate national priorities, product launches, promotions, and brand campaigns into quarterly and annual plans for dealer groups and local markets.
  • Dealer relationships: Build trusted relationships with dealer principals, GMs, and sales/marketing leaders; serve as their primary marketing point of contact.
  • Local activation: Plan and support retail campaigns, open houses, product launches, test-drive events, roadshows, community partnerships, and fleet/customer clinics.
  • Campaign toolkits: Develop turnkey dealer assets — messaging, paid/organic digital, email, social, signage, POS materials, landing pages, event kits, and sales enablement.
  • Co-op / MDF governance: Manage dealer marketing funds, eligibility rules, approvals, claims, documentation, budget tracking, and ROI; improve utilization without weakening controls.
  • Brand & legal compliance: Ensure local activity follows brand standards, product claims, pricing rules, required disclosures, and approved creative; run regular audits and correct gaps quickly.
  • Incentives packaging: Translate federal, state, and local incentive programs (HVIP, Sourcewell, FEAP) into clear, dealer-ready sales tools.
  • Lead & retail performance: Track traffic, leads, appointments, test drives, conversion, sales contribution, and cost efficiency in CRM (HubSpot); recommend actions by dealer/market.
  • Dealer enablement: Create training, office hours, planning templates, communications, and best-practice sharing that make it easier for dealers to execute well.
  • Market feedback: Bring dealer, customer, and competitor insight back to HQ to improve campaigns, offers, processes, and future market plans.
