Head of Marketing

We are seeking a dynamic and commercially driven Head of Marketing to lead the brand and marketing strategy for Anya Hindmarch. You will be a close creative partner to the leadership team reporting to the Brand & Commercial Director, based at our Battersea Head Office.

Anya Hindmarch founded her business in London in 1987. Today, it is a global brand known for craft, wit and extraordinary attention to detail. We create experiences as considered as the products themselves. Our global website is central to how we present the brand and trade internationally, serving customers across UK, EMEA, the US and beyond.

The brand is committed to creating responsibly and constantly strives to innovate to reduce its impact on the earth, while also using its platform to drive education and discussion around sustainability. Testament to this are projects such as I Am A Plastic Bag, The Universal Bag - a unique collaboration with supermarkets to rethink the reusable shopping bag, and Return to Nature, a collection of bags which are intended to biodegrade and compost at the end of their useful life.

The work around sustainability continues, paying heed to the mantra, ‘progress, not perfection.’

Anya launched the Village on Pont Street in London’s Chelsea in 2021. This is a community of neighbouring stores and a cafe. Ever evolving, it centres around the Village Hall, which hosts innovative concepts, collaborations and exhibitions, all of which are amplified digitally.
