Amsterdam, Wednesday 15 June 2022 — WeTransfer, a global provider of creative productivity tools, has today announced the appointment of Angelique Temple to the role of Chief Marketing Officer.
Temple brings to WeTransfer over a decade of experience developing and delivering marketing strategies and campaigns for high-growth global tech and media brands. An Australian native, she has made her home in New York over the past seven years as a leader in the data-driven marketing space.
Most recently, she spent four years at WeWork as its VP of Growth and Revenue Marketing. During her time at WeWork, Temple was responsible for leading the marketing for WeWork’s monthly subscription product, WeWork All Access and pay-as-you-go membership, WeWork On Demand.
In her new role, Temple will drive awareness of WeTransfer’s suite of features that span different stages of the creative workflow, support the growth of the subscription offering and deliver campaigns that increase engagement with the platform’s global customer base.
Alexandar Vassilev, WeTransfer’s CEO said: “Angelique’s expertise in product-led growth with global companies will make an excellent addition to our team and help to supercharge and complement our expanding ecosystem of creative workflow tools. Her proven experience will be invaluable as we continue to innovate the products we offer to creative professionals and broader communities in delivering on our strategy over the coming years.”
Prior to WeWork, Temple was a Senior Director of CX Strategy for marketing technology company, Zeta Global, where she led strategy consulting for clients in Zeta’s Fortune 500’s customer base and previously was an audience strategy consultant for Convicts, a digital media publisher based in New York.
Angelique Temple added: “Joining WeTransfer at such a pivotal point in its growth trajectory is a really exciting opportunity. The company has achieved magnificent global scale and brand awareness in a relatively short space of time, serving a passionate community of loyal creatives, while also leading on issues like sustainability with its B Corp status. I’m excited to be taking on this new challenge and I’m looking forward to working with the talented teams across the board to grow the subscriber base and take the brand even further.”
