Shape the future of Canon's Integrated Printing & Services Group (IPSG) content engine across EMEA. We’re looking for a strategic, operational marketing communications leader to run Canon’s insourced content function—owning the resource, processes, and operating model that underpin integrated B2B communications at scale.
This role is less about hands‑on PR delivery and more about building and leading a high‑performing content operation: setting standards, defining ways of working, enabling cross‑functional delivery, and managing change across a complex European matrix. If you thrive in transforming how organisations plan, create, and activate content across markets, this role is for you. The salary for this role is between £57,276 - £68,185 depending on experience, plus a 10% annual bonus.
Canon is transforming how we plan, create, and scale B2B content across Europe as part of a new marketing operating model. This role is a pivotal position accountable for both the quality of content output and the operational performance of Canon’s insourced content model. As Marketing Communications Lead, you will own the end‑to‑end content operating model—from briefing, prioritisation, and strategic alignment through to delivery, governance, localisation, and market activation.
You will lead a 13‑person insourced content team, delivered via an embedded agency partner, responsible for value proposition development, persona definition, content strategy, project management, content creation and localisation. Crucially, this role ensures that the content function works as an integrated engine, tightly connected with PR, Social, Web Publishing, Localisation, Paid Media, and central marketing teams—while enabling local EMEA markets to activate content efficiently and consistently.
Sitting at European HQ, this role blends marketing operations leadership, people leadership, and change management, shaping scalable ways of working and driving continuous improvement across Canon’s communications ecosystem.
