Global SVP of Marketing

DEPT® is a Growth Invention company. We help the world's most ambitious brands grow by bringing together technology, AI, creativity and data to invent what's next. With more than 4,000 specialists across 30+ markets, we work at the intersection of marketing and technology for clients including Google, Meta, Lufthansa, eBay and OpenAI.

Marketing at DEPT® isn't a support function. It's how we define our place in the market. As Global SVP of Marketing, you'll own DEPT®'s global brand strategy, positioning and market narrative. You'll shape how clients see us, how our people rally behind us, and how the industry talks about us. In short, your job is to make DEPT® impossible to ignore.

You'll lead the global brand organisation, responsible for positioning, communications, creative and social, while setting the direction regional growth teams build upon across EMEA, AMER and APAC. 

We're looking for a leader who combines strategic ambition with genuine warmth. Someone who raises the bar, creates clarity, develops people, and protects the culture that makes great work possible.
