Steph is a senior marketing leader at Heineken UK, the country’s #1 Beer, Cider and Pub company. With over 9 years of brand experience, Steph leads a team of six to propel the Heineken brand in the UK, asserting Heineken as the beer of choice amongst Gen Y and Gen Z whilst driving value growth. Her remit includes launching massive innovation, pioneering sponsorships/partnerships, piloting UK-first beer technology, and managing key relationships with the Heineken Global brand team.
Originally from the USA, Steph began her career on Heineken USA’s beer portfolio. She had the enormous privilege to work on Dos Equis Lager’s ‘The Most Interesting Man in the World’ campaign, one of Ad Age’s Top 15 campaigns of the 21st century – witnessing first-hand the potential for break-through creative to drive commercial results. Steph was proudly Heineken USA’s first-ever winner of Heineken’s ‘Global Innovation Challenge’ and international winner of the ‘Nudge Global Sustainability Challenge.’
Outside of work, Steph is an accomplished football player and is planning an imminent return to coaching. On Sundays you can find Steph watching F1 (after being heavily influenced by Netflix’s ‘Drive to Survive’). Steph is also passionate about continuous learning; attending evening Spanish and tennis lessons, as well as recently embarking on a (strictly academic…) wine tasting course at the West London Wine School. When she has a spare moment, Steph is a guest editor for her sister’s upcoming novel.
