What You Bring

• 15+ years of progressive marketing experience, including senior leadership of complex, consumer-facing strategies and teams.
• Substantive experience in wealth management, investments, or a closely related retail financial services business; fluency in investor needs, competitive dynamics, advice and investment propositions, and relevant distribution models.
• Demonstrated full-funnel ownership of a customer segment or audience, with evidence of improving acquisition, conversion, engagement, retention, and marketing ROI-not only brand awareness or campaign delivery.
• Exceptional analytical judgment and executive communication: ability to distill complex data into a strategic point of view, articulate the business case, influence consequential decisions, and establish performance reporting and measurement practices that drive accountability and continuous optimization.
• Strong commercial and financial acumen, including investment prioritization, budget stewardship, measurement frameworks, and performance optimization.
• Breadth across integrated marketing disciplines-digital, content, brand, positioning, lifecycle engagement, marketing technology, and analytics-paired with the ability to mobilize specialists rather than personally own every channel.
• Credibility as a senior advisor and a collaborative, decisive leader who can guide matrixed teams, develop talent, and deliver through ambiguity.
