Chief Technology Officer

We are the long-standing, production partner of choice that has helped brands across borders and cultures for over half a century achieve their business goals. We embrace difference through diversity of thought, experience, and expertise to maximise potential and bring the greatest benefits for our people and our clients.

In June 2023, Tag was acquired by dentsu Group, Inc, though we remain a distinct brand that is led by David Kassler, Tag Global CEO, headquartered in London. As dentsu’s acquisition of Tag significantly expands content delivery capabilities, Tag’s expertise to deliver personalized, omnichannel content in real-time and at-scale for clients remains unparalleled across the entire customer journey, unlocking marketing effectiveness and efficiency.

Tag and dentsu bring together our innovation and technology infrastructure to help solve clients’ toughest challenges. United in business acumen, we share similar core values, company culture, and embrace a vision “to be at the forefront of people-centric transformations that shape society”.
We are seeking a dynamic and visionary Chief Technology Officer (CTO) to lead our creative technology ecosystem. The CTO will play a pivotal role in defining and implementing our multi-year technology strategy, placing technology at the heart of our business operations. This role requires a strategic thinker with a deep understanding of technology trends, a proven track record in leadership, and a passion for driving innovation.

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field; Proven experience (15 years) in a senior leadership role overseeing technology functions within a dynamic and fast-paced environment.


~ Demonstrated success in developing and executing technology strategies that drive business growth and innovation.


~ Deep understanding of AI technologies and their applications in enterprise settings, particularly in content production or creative industries.


~ Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to leverage data and insights to drive informed decision-making.


~ Strategic thinker with a passion for technology and innovation, and a commitment to excellence in all endeavors.


Strategic Leadership: Develop and articulate a comprehensive technology strategy aligned with the company's goals and objectives. Lead the implementation of initiatives to drive content production efficiency, effectiveness, and governance.
# Governance, Process, and Implementation: Work directly with the departmental leads to develop clear governance processes and implementation standards that build a solid foundation upon which to develop a world class technology ecosystem centered around our clients.
# Oversee the heads of department in IT, Engineering, Product, Business Intelligence, Infosec and Customer Success, fostering collaboration and alignment across teams.
# Technology Compliance: Work closely with our privacy, infosec and legal teams to develop a compliant and governed technology ecosystem centered around accountability, risk mitigation and agility.
# Technology Roadmap: Drive innovation in next-generation production technology product development.
# Budget Management: Manage technology budgets effectively, optimizing resource allocation and ensuring alignment with strategic objectives.
# Data and Insights: Champion the development and implementation of a best-in-class business intelligence ecosystem, leveraging data and insights to inform decision-making and drive business growth.
# Partnerships and Alliances: Be the point person for senior strategic relationships with key suppliers and vendors whilst vetting new platforms and services, ensuring that our technology ecosystem is always underpinned by a best-in-class infrastructure.
# AI Implementation: Demonstrate expertise in implementing AI into enterprise businesses, with a focus on generative AI applications in a production agency setting. Lead efforts to integrate AI technologies to enhance content production processes and outcomes in a safe, responsible, scalable, and observable manner.
# Team Leadership: Provide strong leadership and mentorship to cross functional teams, fostering a culture of collaboration, innovation, and continuous learning. Drive employee engagement and development initiatives to attract, retain, and develop top talent.
