bout the role

 The Digital Marketing Lead – OHC is responsible for leading category‑level digital marketing strategy and thinking for Oral Health Care, ensuring digital is a primary growth driver across brand building, performance marketing, partnerships, and digital commerce inputs.

In a world where digital media represents a materially higher share of total media investment and consumer influence is increasingly shaped by creators, communities, and platforms, the role ensures Haleon’s OHC brands win through relevance, effectiveness, and integration, rather than scale alone

Role Responsibilities

1. Category‑Led Digital Strategy

• Own the end‑to‑end digital marketing strategy for the OHC category, aligned to growth, penetration, and premiumisation objectives.

• Steward a digital‑first mindset, ensuring digital is embedded early into:

• Shape long‑term creator and partnership strategies, in line with industry shifts toward decentralised, community‑led brand building observed across leading FMCG players.

Ensure influencer and partnership choices are consistent with brand values, science‑led credibility, and premium positioning of OHC

3. Brand, Media & Performance Leadership

• Partner the category on full‑funnel digital marketing thinking, spanning:

  • Brand storytelling and content ecosystems

  • Performance marketing and demand generation

  • Data‑led optimisation and learning frameworks

• Given that ~50% of OHC media investment is directed towards digital media, ensure strong governance, ROI discipline, and prioritisation across platforms and channels.

Continuously refine the digital media mix in response to evolving consumer behaviour, platform dynamics, and rising acquisition costs

4. Digital Commerce & E‑commerce Partnership

• Partner with Ecommerce Sales team on category‑level digital commerce thinking for OHC

• Provide strategic inputs into:

  • Digital commerce direction

  • Product, Pricing, and Assortment (PPA) principles for online channels

  • Digital‑first and omnichannel launch planning

• Partner with E‑commerce teams ensuring sharper brand and proposition inputs.

5. Governance, Capability & Ways of Working

• Set clear digital standards and playbooks for OHC across ISC markets.

• Build digital capability within brand teams, particularly in:

  • Platform thinking

  • Influencer effectiveness

  • Performance and measurement rigor

• Simplify decision‑making by providing clear digital direction, reducing fragmentation across brands, agencies, and platforms.
