Marketing Manager Outsourcing – Hire Strategic Talent Without Full-Time Overhead
Running successful marketing campaigns today requires more than just ad hoc efforts or random social media posts. You need someone who can define your brand positioning, oversee lead generation funnels, manage your content calendar, and coordinate agencies or freelancers. In short — you need a competent marketing manager.
But hiring one in-house can be expensive. In countries like the U.S., UK, or Scandinavia, salaries alone can reach $6,000–$9,000 per month — and that’s before adding payroll taxes, benefits, and onboarding time. Many companies hesitate to make that commitment until revenue justifies it.
That’s why more and more businesses are choosing to outsource their marketing manager through a dedicated offshore or outstaffing model. Instead of hiring a full-time employee in-house, you get a strategic marketing expert who works exclusively for you, but without the HR burden or financial risk.
At Move Marketing, we help you find, onboard, and support a marketing manager who aligns with your brand and business goals — whether you’re launching a new product, scaling your lead generation, or trying to build a stronger digital presence.
Why Outsource a Marketing Manager?
Hiring a senior marketing manager locally is often out of reach for small and mid-sized companies. Beyond salary, you’ll face costs like benefits, office setup, recruitment fees, and potentially months of onboarding. And if the hire doesn’t perform, replacing them becomes both time-consuming and expensive.
Some businesses try to spread the role across junior staff or freelancers — but that leads to lack of coordination, inconsistent messaging, and campaigns without strategic direction.
Strategic Benefits of Outsourcing
By outsourcing the role, you can:
- Access experienced marketing leaders at a much lower cost
- Get full-time dedication without long-term contracts
- Avoid payroll, benefits, and tax complexity
- Quickly scale your marketing efforts with a clear roadmap
- Stay focused on your business while we manage operations
Outsourcing also allows you to stay agile. If your needs change — for example, if you shift from SEO to paid media — we can help you adjust your marketing manager profile accordingly.
Offshore vs Outstaffing – What’s the Best Model?
- With offshore outsourcing, you typically work with an agency that assigns you a marketing resource. You don’t manage them directly.
- With outstaffing, you get a dedicated marketing manager who works full-time for your company — but is employed by a third party like Move Marketing.
We recommend outstaffing when you want continuity, loyalty, and full control — without the burden of becoming an employer yourself.

Cost Comparison – In-House vs Offshore Marketing Manager
Hiring a full-time marketing manager locally can quickly become one of your most expensive hires. Not only are salaries rising, but you also need to account for employer taxes, paid leave, recruitment costs, and often a long notice period.
By contrast, working with Move Marketing through an offshore outstaffing model gives you access to an experienced marketing manager — without the administrative burden or full-time overhead.
Here’s a typical monthly cost breakdown:
Expense Category | In-House (US/UK) | Offshore via Move Marketing |
---|---|---|
Base Salary | $7,000 | $2,900 |
Payroll Taxes & Benefits | $1,500 | Included |
Recruitment & Onboarding | $800 (avg. amortized) | Included |
Office & Equipment | $400 | Included |
Paid Leave & Sick Days | $600 | Included |
Legal & HR Compliance | $200 | Included |
💡 Total Monthly Cost | $10,500 | $2,900 |
By choosing offshore outstaffing with Move Marketing, most clients save over 70% per month, while still getting a dedicated, strategic team member who drives growth.
