About the role

  • Brand Director overseeing brand governance and agency leadership at a leading trading platform. Driving brand initiatives in high-trust environments and ensuring consistency across international markets.

Responsibilities

  • Own the Brand Language OS and brand operating rules
  • Act as final approver on brand tone, language, and narrative
  • Say “no” to growth-driven pressure that breaks brand discipline
  • Prevent drift into hype, urgency, or promotional fintech language
  • Lead and govern global agencies (e.g. Ogilvy, PR partners, experience partners)
  • Translate brand strategy into executable systems for agencies
  • Ensure consistency across markets without over-localisation
  • Control scope creep and “creative reinvention”
  • Work closely with Product, PR, Performance, CRM, Compliance

  • Act as the brand counterweight to growth and commercial pressure

  • Ensure brand behaviour matches regulated, long-term credibility
  • Treat brand as infrastructure, not promotion

Requirements

  • 10+ years of experience in senior brand leadership roles.
  • Proven background in regulated or high-trust industries (preferred). Experience within financial services, payments, infrastructure, or institutional brands is strongly preferred, including client-side work with brand systems (e.g. Landor, Interbrand, Wolff Olins) or major agency networks.
  • Demonstrated ability to govern large agencies rather than rely on them for strategy.
  • Experience managing and scaling brand across multiple international markets.
  • Strong personal authority and confidence to say “no” to senior stakeholders when brand discipline is at risk.
  • Exposure to PR, product language, and brand governance, not solely advertising or campaigns.
