  • Champion rigorous attribution modelling, incrementality testing, and ongoing optimisation efforts aligned with global best practices to ensure marketing effectiveness.
  • Lead the development and execution of regional brand strategies and communication initiatives that enhance awareness, preference, and loyalty across multiple customer segments.

Analytical thinking comes naturally; you are comfortable interpreting complex data sets using modern tools so that every decision is grounded in evidence rather than intuition alone. Above all else your interpersonal skills set you apart: whether inspiring direct reports or collaborating cross-functionally you foster trust respect inclusivity—and always strive for collective achievement over individual recognition.
