About the Role

As Associate Director, Campaign and Delivery, you will lead the engine room of UOW's Brand and Marketing Division – turning strategy into campaigns, content and digital experiences that reach audiences locally and around the world. Reporting to the Chief Marketing Officer and acting as second-in-command for the Division, you will lead the teams responsible for integrated marketing, creative production and digital delivery, ensuring great work gets to market at pace and at scale.

We have done the hard work of redesigning the function. The operating model is in place. The capability is there. Now we need a leader who can embed the change, lift performance and build a delivery function that matches the University's global ambitions.

About the Team

The Brand and Marketing Division exists to ensure UOW is understood, chosen and championed by students, partners and communities here and around the world. As the University pursues ambitious growth and global aspirations, the Division plays a critical role in shaping how the institution shows up in market and tells its story.

/n

You will lead a team of around 20 specialists across integrated marketing, creative production and digital experience. Together, they are responsible for delivering everything from major brand campaigns and student recruitment activity to web, content, design, social and digital experiences.
