Chief Marketing Officer
The way a company presents itself to its customers is just as crucial as what it does or makes, which is why businesses devote large percentages of their expenditures to marketing. Large companies, with multi-pronged marketing strategies over various channels and different regions, need an organised marketing department to carry this out. Overseeing that department is the chief marketing officer (CMO).
The CMO’s job covers several related subjects: setting marketing strategies, overseeing the team, monitoring marketing performance and identifying new openings. Of course, as chief of the department, they will delegate many of the day- to-day elements of that role to the team, as marketing involves diverse specialisms such as digital, sectoral and international, each with its own demands. But success or failure of the marketing strategy will ultimately be the CMO’s responsibility through their skill in implementing their expertise and assembling and managing a team.
The skills required
Chief marketing officer jobs usually require several years’ experience at a high level in a marketing role. While it’s preferable that the previous CMO jobs were in the same sector, or a related one, that’s not always an essential, as many of the skills involved with managing a team and handling strategies are transferable.
All CMOs need an analytical mindset and an ability to keep an eye on trends in what is an ever-changing discipline. With new ideas constantly emerging, especially in digital, they will be as good a listener and learner as they are an instructor.
Chief Marketing Officer Jobs in County Tyrone
County Tyrone is located to the east of Lough Neagh, and is the only Northern Irish county to have borders with three others: Londonderry, Fermanagh and Armagh. It also borders Donegal and Monaghan in Eire. The county seat and most populous settlement is the relatively small town of Omagh (population 20,000), and the next largest towns are Strabane, Dungannon and Cookstown. Tyrone is Northern Ireland’s largest county be area.
Although Tyrone does not have a single dominant settlement, it does have several moderately sized towns. There is a good deal of agriculture in the county and some industry. However the picture for anyone seeking Chief Marketing Officer work is reasonably promising, as networks of populations always require a well organised supply chain to service their needs.
