Here’s what they had to say… Mim Haysom - Suncorp Group’s Executive General Manager, Brand & Marketing, and CMO50’s #1 CMO of 2022 - loves the experimental artistry that marketers can express and that the field demands. She revealed that “our constantly changing and dynamic market context means that to be successful, we have to use innovation and creativity to solve different business and customer challenges every day.” Additionally, Commonwealth Bank Australia’s Chief Marketing OfficerJo Boundy loves marketing’s need for us to combine the creativity with data-led insights and rigorous logic. She describes her work as “the balance of the left and right brain” and “art vs science” which come together to form “the perfect relationship.” Trisca Scott-Branagan - Chief Marketing Officer, Australian Business Growth Fund - is similarly passionate about this balance. “The variety” that comes with marketing, she says, provides “the opportunity to be creative one moment, and deeply analytical the next.” ADMA’s CEO Andrea Martens touched on the variety that not only comes with the craft, but the plethora of interests and businesses marketers can work with. She believes that marketing is “a career where you work in any industry - be it fashion, cars, finance etc. You can follow your passion whatever that may be, as every industry relies on marketing.
