Experience required includes:

·         10+ years relevant experience ·         Previously setup or grown high-performance growth marketing team (not ‘first rodeo’) ·         Track record of delivering outstanding revenue growth & customer acquisition ·         Success building premium brands, ideally with global reach in niche markets
