The Marketing Society announces its new chair and board

Last year at our AGM meeting, our new chair was revealed alongside a brand-new board line-up to support the company’s ambitious purpose, vision and mission and to create a vibrant, leading edge Society for its 2500 global members.

Previous chair Stephen Maher CEO, MBA, stepped down to make way for Craig Inglis, customer director John Lewis who will lead the talented new team of senior marketing leaders.

Chief Executive Gemma Greaves said, “Creating our new board was like piecing together a jigsaw puzzle - we were looking for the right constellation of skills, diversity of experience, talent and personality.

“We now have a balanced mix of clients, agencies and media owners who will be helping us deliver our purpose of inspiring bolder marketing leadership and achieve our vision of being the leading global network for senior marketers.

“I also want to say a huge thank you to Stephen for his outstanding contribution to the Society over the past four years. We’re going to miss his energy and vision but as a member of the Society he’ll remain a valued member of our family.”
