Airalo is looking for a Senior Director, Brand to own our global brand strategy and lead the team that brings it to life across every market and every product line — B2C, B2B, and B2B2C. Reporting to our Chief Marketing Officer, you'll sit on the marketing leadership team, own the brand P&L conversation, and lead a multi-disciplinary team spanning brand management, creative, and brand systems.
This is a senior leadership role: you're not just executing brand strategy, you're setting it, building the team and structure to scale it, and developing the next generation of brand leaders underneath you.
What You'll Do:
- Own Airalo's global brand strategy and roadmap, grounded in a deep understanding of users, market trends, competitive landscape, and category data.
- Set brand direction, product launch strategy, and go-to-market plans across all active regions (APAC, Arabia & Africa, Europe, North & South America).
- Represent brand at the marketing leadership table — advising the CMO and cross-functional leaders (Product, Growth, Partnerships) on brand implications of major decisions.
- Lead and grow a team of Brand Managers, Creative leads, and Brand Systems specialists across regions and time zones.
- Recruit, coach, and develop your team's managers, building bench strength and a clear path for their own progression into leadership.
- Own team structure and resourcing decisions as the function scales.
- Monitor and analyze brand and category performance, market penetration, and new user acquisition, including competitive benchmarking against forecast.
- Own brand tone of voice, guidelines, and governance across every channel and market, ensuring consistency at global scale.
- Report brand health and performance to senior leadership, translating data into clear action plans.
- Direct internal teams and creative agencies to build fit-for-purpose toolkits (copy, digital, social, eCommerce, in-store/activation) and guide local delivery teams on execution.
- Own content marketing strategy — driving traffic, engagement, lead generation, retention, and brand awareness across email, social, blog, and other owned channels.
- Champion big ideas at key user touchpoints, including promotions and campaigns.
