What you will do

The Head of Skin Health and Beauty Marketing will lead the APAC Skin Health & Beauty portfolio (Neutrogena, Aveeno incl. Baby, Clean & Clear, Regaine, OGX), with accountability for shaping and accelerating growth across a high-potential but relatively underdeveloped regional business. You will define and execute the regional growth agenda, moving beyond adaptation of global strategies to true market-shaping brand leadership, building scale through innovation, modern content ecosystems, and differentiated consumer engagement.

Key Responsibilities
• Lead the strategic vision and annual marketing plans, translating business ambition into clear growth strategies, with a focus on winning with Neutrogena and accelerating Regaine as priority growth vectors 
• Drive innovation acceleration across product, claims, formats, packaging, and go-to-market models to unlock category growth 
• Deliver original, insight-led brand building (not just localization), including media, content, product innovation, and integrated campaigns that differentiate in a competitive beauty and skin category 
• Build and scale modern, digital-first content ecosystems, including emerging platforms (e.g., social commerce, TikTok Shop), to drive consumer engagement and conversion 
• Champion cross-functional collaboration, integrating scientific insights, market research, brand strategy, and consumer behavior to enable data-driven decision-making 
• Oversee market research initiatives (qualitative and quantitative) to uncover evolving consumer needs and inform portfolio and innovation strategy 
• Lead across diverse markets, balancing developed and high-growth contexts while influencing crossmarket execution 

• Establish and manage strategic partnerships with external agencies, key opinion leaders, and ecosystem partners to enhance brand credibility and effectiveness 
• Manage multi-million-dollar marketing budgets, ensuring disciplined resource allocation, ROI optimization, and cost-effective execution in a resource-constrained environment 
• Translate strategy into best-in-class execution, ensuring quality, timeliness, and measurable business impact across all marketing programs 
• Oversee sales incentive, communications ensuring alignment with brand strategy and growth priorities 

• Build and lead a lean, high-performing team, fostering a culture of agility, creativity, accountability, and entrepreneurial thinking 
• Lead projects end-to-end, ensuring delivery excellence, financial performance, and impact on business outcomes

• Proven ability to lead end-to-end brand building and portfolio strategy, including innovation and go-to market execution 
• Demonstrated success managing large-scale budgets and multiple teams in complex, fast-paced environments 
• Strong leadership and influencing skills, with the ability to align and inspire cross-functional and crossmarket stakeholders 
• Excellent communication and strategic thinking capability, able to translate complex concepts into actionable plans

Desired Qualifications
• Advanced degree (MBA or equivalent) preferred
• Proven track record of original brand-building and innovation (beyond adaptation/localization), ideally gained in global or regional roles

• Strong expertise in consumer insights, human-centered design, and data-driven marketing approaches
