Opera is seeking a forward-thinking Senior Marketing Director to lead the growth of our Opera Desktop Browser division. This pivotal role requires strong people management skills to guide, inspire, and develop teams of senior marketing professionals while driving Opera’s continued growth and brand expansion, particularly among younger, tech-savvy audiences. This role is a second-line management position, responsible for overseeing and guiding other managers. We’re seeking a marketing people leader who combines strategic vision with hands-on execution skills to strengthen Opera's presence in the competitive tech landscape.

  • Strategic Leadership: Develop and implement a growth-focused marketing strategy, integrating product marketing, brand awareness, performance marketing, and influencer partnerships. Ensure Opera remains at the cutting edge of marketing trends and technologies.
  • Global Marketing Operations: Lead all global marketing initiatives, including budget management and performance optimization, to meet and exceed quarterly and annual KPIs. Ensure that investments align with strategic priorities and deliver optimal ROI.
  • Innovation and Growth: Identify and leverage new growth opportunities, from emerging digital channels to enhanced audience targeting, to maintain Opera’s competitive advantage in the browser space.
  • Team Leadership & Development: Manage a team of senior marketing professionals, fostering a culture of creativity, innovation, and excellence. Optimize team structures to drive efficiency and enhance strategic outcomes.
  • Cross-functional Collaboration: Work closely with product management, gaming, and mobile divisions to align marketing initiatives with broader product goals. Ensure cohesive brand experiences across all platforms and touch points.
  • Brand Building: Develop and lead full-funnel, cost-effective brand awareness campaigns that clearly communicate Opera’s unique value propositions. Strengthen brand equity, driving user acquisition, engagement, and long-term loyalty.
Job Requirements:
  • At least 5 years of experience as a 2nd Line Manager, overseeing managers and leading senior-level marketing teams across multiple locations.
  • Strong track record in fostering team growth, creativity, and operational excellence.
  • Deep experience in brand development, product marketing, performance marketing, and influencer partnerships.
  • Ability to design and execute growth-oriented, full-funnel marketing campaigns that drive measurable ROI.
  • Proven success in managing global marketing initiatives, including budget planning and performance optimization, ensuring resources and investments align with strategic objectives for maximum impact.
Ideal Candidate’s Profile:
  • Experience in the business-to-consumer (B2C) technology sector is required, with strong insight into market trends and consumer behaviour.
  • Experience in startups or fast-scaling businesses, with a demonstrated ability to adapt and scale operations effectively.
