As the Director of Marketing for Gleeds Americas, Brittani oversees all aspects of the US marketing operations. This includes managing bidding processes, creating marketing collateral, handling internal and external communications, and supporting our technical teams from a marketing communications standpoint.
Additionally, she plays a crucial role in nurturing relationships with leadership across the United States and our global offices, thereby enhancing Gleeds’ international business presence and raising brand awareness.
Her daily activities vary greatly, often extending from early mornings to late evenings to ensure availability across multiple time zones. Brittani engages extensively with our US leadership and international counterparts, which involves spearheading proposals, overseeing design initiatives, and conducting numerous strategic meetings. The core of her motivation lies in the incredible people Brittani works with daily. Her position as a marketing director enables her to connect with diverse teams, facilitating seamless communication and collaboration.
Brittani has been with Gleeds for nearly ten years, drawn initially by the variety of tasks and the excitement of managing high-impact projects. The role offers continuous learning and opportunities to engage on an international scale, making every day both challenging and rewarding.
I advise new joiners to actively ask questions and engage with their colleagues. Gleeds fosters an open environment where curiosity is welcomed, and learning is encouraged. Embracing new ideas and considering diverse career trajectories can lead to fulfilling paths within the organization.
Her proudest achievement is the development of a competent, reliable marketing team that is recognized both within and outside of Gleeds for its efficiency and creativity. This team has become a cornerstone of US department, known for its ability to execute complex projects efficiently.
Outside of work, her life is full of personal interests: spending quality time with her partner and dog, exploring new places, trying new restaurants, as well as attending live concerts. Additionally, she is passionate about driving brand recognition in the U.S., and she is very active in the Construction Management Association of America’s South Atlantic Chapter (CMAA SAC). For CMAA SAC, Brittani heads up the annual Project Achievement Awards and is the President Elect for 2024-2025 year.
If Brittani hadn't pursued a career in marketing, she envisions herself in the creative industry, potentially owning a photography studio or teaching photography.
