## Description

Solarvest Holdings Berhad is a Bursa-listed clean energy company on a mission to accelerate Malaysia's transition to renewable energy. As we grow our brand presence and market position, we are looking for a Head of Marketing who is not just a strategist — but a creative thinker and confident leader who can bring ideas to life, shape compelling narratives, and inspire both internal teams and external audiences.

This is a senior leadership role that sits at the intersection of brand strategy, product marketing, and marketing operations. You will define the brand, drive go-to-market strategy, and build a marketing function that reflects the ambition and values of a company that genuinely believes in a cleaner future.

**KEY RESPONSIBILITIES**

**1\. Corporate Brand Strategy & Governance**

-   Own and define the Group's corporate brand strategy — positioning Solarvest as a credible, inspiring clean energy leader in Malaysia and the region.
-   Establish brand governance frameworks and ensure consistency across all touchpoints, subsidiaries, campaigns, and external partners.
-   Lead corporate reputation management and ESG/sustainability narrative, aligned with Solarvest's listed company obligations and stakeholder expectations.

**2\. Creative Direction & Brand Storytelling**

-   Bring the Solarvest brand to life through bold, distinctive creative ideas — from campaign concepts to content, events, and brand experiences.
-   Shape and own the brand voice, visual identity, and storytelling approach across all channels and audiences.
-   Challenge conventional thinking — bring fresh perspectives and industry-leading ideas that set Solarvest apart in a competitive and growing market.

**3\. Product Marketing & Go-to-Market**

-   Lead product marketing across Solarvest's portfolio — developing clear positioning, value propositions, and messaging for each product and service.
-   Drive go-to-market strategy for new product launches, ensuring sales teams are equipped with the right tools, materials, and messaging to win.
-   Translate complex clean energy solutions into compelling narratives for B2B & B2C customers, partners, investors, and the public.
-   Build and maintain strong relationships with media, industry associations, government agencies, and strategic partners to support commercial growth.
-   Work closely with the sales and business development teams to generate quality leads and support revenue growth.

**4\. ESG & Sustainability Narrative**

-   Partner with the Sustainability and Investor Relations teams to develop credible and compelling ESG brand communications.
-   Lead sustainability storytelling initiatives that build trust with stakeholders, investors, and the public.

**5\. Marketing Operations & Team Leadership**

-   Oversee full marketing operations — budgeting, agency management, vendor negotiations, and performance tracking.
-   Build, lead, and mentor a high-performing marketing team with a culture of creativity, accountability, and continuous improvement. Have the authority to plan and structure the marketing team as the business evolves.
-   Act as a strong, visible leader across the business — influencing at C-suite level and driving alignment across departments.

**6\. AI & Innovation**

-   Lead the adoption of AI across the marketing function — setting the direction, identifying the right tools, and encouraging the team to embrace smarter ways of working.
-   Stay ahead of emerging AI and marketing technology trends — bringing fresh thinking and relevant best practices into Solarvest's marketing approach.
-   Champion a culture of innovation — inspiring the team to continuously explore, test, and apply new technologies that improve marketing effectiveness and efficiency.
