Head of Digital

Digital strategy, UX and functional ownership

Winchester (Hybrid)

Our client is an established creative, digital and marketing agency who works with organisations that need clarity on positioning, product and how digital supports growth. Strategy, design and technology sit together from day one, so direction and delivery don't drift.

They are appointing a Head of Digital to take proper ownership of the discipline. This is a functional leadership position with real authority and clear accountability.

You will own:

• Digital strategy and UX direction.
• Technical standards and architectural decisions.
• Release quality and readiness.
• Discipline-level estimation and scope assumptions.
• Capability and development within the digital team.
• Margin visibility for digital work, alongside Operations and Finance.

You will have the authority to:

• Push back on briefs that are under-defined or under-funded.
• Insist on structured strategy and UX before build begins.
• Surface delivery risk early and plainly.
• Protect long-term quality over short-term convenience.

This role owns digital project commercials including scoping, pricing and margin management. Overall account commercials and master timeline coordination sit with Operations, but digital-specific commercial decisions rest here.

What you'll get:

• Competitive salary + commission
• Flexible working
• Training budget
• Dog-friendly office
• Spotify Duo
• Yoga Wednesdays
• Team socials
