• Oversee marketing campaigns, digital initiatives, and demand generation activities with a strong focus on effectiveness, relevance, and business impact
• Represent the company in public forums, events, industry engagements, and strategic meetings as a senior marketing leader
• Develop high-quality presentations, internal business updates, and strategic communication materials that help leadership and commercial teams make informed decisions
• Drive a more structured, forward-looking marketing function with clear priorities, stronger execution standards, and measurable commercial contribution
