Digital Commerce Global’s Post

With the creation of new, specialist senior roles, C-suites are growing in size. How much more complex is this making companies to navigate? And what pressure is it placing on the CEO in terms of direct reports?   As companies strive to stay competitive in the face of rapid innovation and technology change, some roles are being divided between two or even three executives. In the last decade data has been a good example of this, carving out its own, dedicated niche(s). As environmental considerations become the priority for many businesses, the role of Chief Sustainability Officer has been created from what previously may have been the domain of Corporate Affairs or even the Chief Marketing Officer’s remit.   I noticed that Stephen Bartlett’s team at Diary of A CEO, had created a Head of Failure to ‘out-fail the competition’ and rapidly increase his team’s rate of feedback and experimentation to stay ahead of the competition. This may be taking it to extremes for most companies but I understand the sentiment. More conventionally, in the retail sector, Lidl UK has just created the new role of Chief Customer Officer which will look at optimising customer experience and be mainly responsible for marketing, promotions, customer insights and CRM.   The key to any business creating new roles is this:   ◾️ Make sure the company is very clear on the remit – especially if the new role used to be part of someone else’s job ◾️ What is success in this new role going to look like and how will you measure it? ◾️ If this role doesn’t exist elsewhere in the market, how are you going to find this person? What are the top three things you need? ◾️How aligned is the wider business on the need for this new role?   What are your experiences on the early success rates of newly created roles? #csuite #executivesearch #hiring

****Account Management Hiring in Retail Media**** When I set up Vertical Advantage I had restrictions from working with 144 retailers / consumer brands for a year. I hadn't run my own desk for 2 years & wanted to build an desk connected to my network - I chose the data & loyalty space within agencies & in my first couple months I placed talent with 5one (now Mastercard) and Ogilvy. Soon afterwards I developed a great relationship with Aimia Inc (thanks Bradley Winstanley) and as this market evolved, we built more and more relationships within the Retail Media space. What I love about hiring here is that the pool of talent & transferable skills is so broad in this space and you can excel in this space coming from various markets - here's some skills / market thoughts to consider if hiring in the space: Retail - Buying, Partnerships, Marketing, Category Management & eComm; FMCG - Trade / Shopper Marketing, Category Management, National Accounts & Insights; Media - all aspects of the media industry but publishing / traditional print often transitions well & have great retail understanding; Agencies / Platforms - more obvious but data literacy is key when hiring talent in this space & those within the more creative markets can often struggle in retail media; What have I missed? #RetailMedia #Hiring #Skills
