Chief Marketing Officer

Job Description

Chief Marketing Officer, Brand Architect & Interim CMO for a 150‑year Japanese heritage bespoke interiors company.

About Our Client

Heritage Japanese Bespoke Interiors is a 150‑year‑old family‑held institution founded in the Meiji era in Kobe, Japan. The company origins trace back to master shipbuilders who applied their skills in wooden vessel construction to create high‑precision, Western‑style bespoke furniture. Today, the firm remains led by a fourth‑generation owner dedicated to preserving the \”Takumi\” spirit while evolving for a global audience.

Job Responsibilities

The company represents a pinnacle of cultural fusion, blending classic European silhouettes with guarded traditions of Japanese artistry.

The Scope Of The Interim Engagement

• Brand Positioning: Collaborate with the Owner to define the \”soul\” of the brand for an international audience.
• Strategic Root‑Setting: Establish brand equity and desire within the Ultra‑High‑Net‑Worth (UHNW) community prior to commercial dealer discussions.
• Story‑Led PR: Leverage elite media connections to craft deep, narrative‑driven features that reach the most discerning collectors.
• Market Entry Blueprint: Create the \”Bespoke Playbook\” to guide how the brand interacts with Singapore’s elite interior design and retail ecosystem.

Qualifications

We seek a seasoned luxury marketing leader or fractional CMO with a proven track record of launching very high‑premium brands (home products, furniture, or white goods) and the cultural dexterity to translate Japanese heritage into a local status symbol.

• Luxury Pedigree: Proven track record in the Very High‑Premium sector (Bespoke Interiors, Haute Horlogerie, or Ultra‑Luxury White Goods).
• The Bridge: Ability to translate meticulous Japanese craftsmanship into a status‑rich narrative for the Southeast Asian market.
• CEO‑Level Strategist: Comfortable working directly with founders to craft market‑entry blueprints that prioritize quality and heritage over volume.
• Impact‑Ready: Seasoned leader or fractional CMO ready to undertake a high‑intensity interim project with lasting influence on the luxury landscape.

Why This is a Great Opportunity

This is a \”Story‑First\” mission. If you have the network and narrative power to introduce a 150‑year‑old Japanese treasure to Singapore’s elite, we invite you to lead this legacy.
