Responsibilities

• Own UAE’s marketing performance day to day, treating local commercial outcomes as a direct personal accountability, not a shared regional metric.

• Manage local brand, OOH, TV, radio, podcast, affiliate, and influencer relationships in UAE, in coordination with central Centres of Excellence, who retain authority over execution quality and standards.
• Track UAE-specific brand health and digital reputation signals, surfacing issues early rather than after they show up in the numbers.
• Recommend budget reallocation and channel trade-offs for UAE to the Head of Marketing, MENA, with clear rationale, rather than requesting sign-off without a point of view.
• Escalate regulatory, cultural, or reputational risks specific to Dubai to the Head of Marketing, MENA and relevant CoE leads, early and factually.
• Build and manage the day-to-day relationships with UAE-based agencies, media owners, and partners that make fast, well-judged local decisions possible.
• Coordinate agency or junior marketing resource dedicated to UAE where the market requires it.
• Support Head of Marketing MENA with other markets as and when required with a particular focus on supporting performance marketing across the region.
