Chief Marketing Officer

Help Lead the Next Chapter of America's Diner

For generations, Denny's has been part of American culture. But iconic brands don't stay relevant by standing still. At Denny's, we are building what's next—and we are searching for a bold, strategic, growth-minded Chief Marketing Officer to help lead that transformation.

This is not a campaign management role. This is a business leadership role for an executive who knows how to turn brand equity into guest traffic, consumer connection, franchise confidence, and measurable growth.

Reporting directly to the CEO and serving on the Denny's Inc. Leadership Team, the CMO will lead enterprise marketing strategy across brand, digital, media, loyalty, consumer insights, menu commercialization, and franchise marketing.

Why Denny's. Why Now.

This is a rare opportunity to shape the future of an iconic brand at a defining moment, bringing fresh relevance to loyal guests, reaching new audiences, and building a marketing organization designed to drive enterprise growth.

Location & Work Model

Based in Spartanburg, SC, this role operates on a hybrid schedule (4 days onsite / 1 remote). Relocation assistance is provided, and the position requires approximately 30% travel.
