AI is set to drive £18bn of UK digital ad spend by 2030, according to new Marketing Week reporting.

The bigger question for employers isn't whether AI will change marketing. It's whether their teams have the skills to make the most of it.

We're seeing growing demand for marketers who can combine strategic thinking, commercial acumen and AI-enabled ex*****on. The tools are becoming more accessible. The talent that can use them effectively remains a differentiator.
As the market evolves, the most valuable marketers won't be those competing with AI, they'll be those who know how to leverage it.

What skills do you think will define the next generation of marketing leaders?

Your next opportunity could depend on a single document: your CV.

Before hitting "Apply," take a few minutes to update your experience, highlight your achievements and ensure your CV reflects your value.

A great CV won't get you the job, but it can get you through the door.
When was the last time you updated yours?

Preparation doesn’t stop when the interview ends. How you reflect and respond afterwards can make a real difference to your future opportunities.

Here are a few important post-interview tips:
✔️ Take time to reflect: What went well and where could you improve?
✔️ Make notes while the conversation is still fresh in your mind.
✔️ If you receive an offer- congratulations, your preparation paid off.
✔️ If you decide to decline an opportunity, remain professional and respectful, industries are smaller than you think.
✔️ If you’re unsuccessful, don’t be discouraged. Ask for feedback, review your notes and use the experience to strengthen your next interview.

Every interview is an opportunity to learn, improve and move one step closer to the right role.

Behind every successful organisation are people making a difference in roles that often go unnoticed publicly. Identifying and attracting those individuals is where we focus our time, partnering with ambitious organisations to secure talent capable of creating lasting impact.

One of the most rewarding parts of executive search is seeing the long-term results after a placement is made. Watching key hires go on to influence performance, culture and progression within elite environments is exactly why we value a thorough, relationship-led approach to recruitment.

Over the past few years, we’ve been proud to support organisations within professional sport, including AFC Bournemouth, on strategic appointments across leadership, medical and performance functions. Most recently, this included the successful placement of a new Director of Medical & Performance following an extensive international search, bringing in Dr Robert Percy Marshall from RB Leipzig. Seeing the impact of that appointment throughout the season has been incredibly rewarding.

A huge thank you to everyone we’ve worked with throughout the process. It’s always a privilege to support both clients and candidates at pivotal moments in their journey.

Keeping pace with the fast-evolving world of marketing technology can feel like a full-time job in itself.

New tools. New platforms. New expectations. Constant change.

But here’s the reality: you don’t need to master everything.

The most effective senior marketers focus on filtering signal from noise, quickly identifying what’s worth attention, and what isn’t.

Because in this environment, speed matters… but clarity of judgment matters more.

Agency or In-House: Which Marketing Career Fits You?

Are your marketing skills agency-bound or perfect for an in-house role?
It can be a tough choice! Here are some insights to help you decide:

🌟 Agency Environment:
If you thrive in vibrant, fast-paced settings where every day offers something different, an agency might be your playground. Agencies often deliver diverse projects, giving you the chance to apply your creativity across a wide range of clients and industries.
Skills Needed: Multi-tasking, agility and creativity.

🏛️ In-House Setting:
On the other side, if you prefer to dig deep into one brand, mastering its intricacies and strategising long-term, an in-house position could be ideal. This environment offers stability and the chance to build a brand on a solid foundation.
Skills Needed: Specialisation, brand loyalty and long-term planning.

Remember, there's no one-size-fits-all answer, but understanding your strengths and preferences can guide you to the right path. According to the Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM), 67% of marketers find that industry experience influences their career progression. What's your experience?
