The CMO Podcast

Jeff Jenkins (Carters Inc.) | Trying to Find the Signal Through the Noise


Listen Later

Jeff Jenkins is the Executive Vice President of Global Marketing at Carter's Inc. Carter's is the market leader in baby and children's apparel with $3.5 billion in sales. They got their start in 1865 and now their brands include Carter's, Oshkosh B'Gosh, and more. 

Jeff actually started out as an actor and tennis player before jumping to marketing for NASA, Yum! Brands, Whole Foods and CKE brands (Hardees and Carl’s Jr.). For three years now he has been with Carter's.

In this episode Jeff talks about his unorthodox career in acting and tennis and how it led to him going into marketing. Jeff also explains why he was surprised by how the CMO role is actually 90% "chief" and 10% "marketing".

CMOs often hold one of the most innovative and challenging roles in business today. Those who excel can operate at the highest level to drive growth and create value for their organizations. To learn more how Deloitte helps bolster the value CMOs deliver, visit www.cmo.deloitte.com.
