I am an experienced Director of Marketing and Operations with a demonstrated history of successfully building great teams, working with automotive dealer clients, ad agency partners, and employees.

I currently work at Subaru of America in the Central Region office in Itasca, Illinois. This regional office is relocating to Coppell, Texas, where we’ll consolidate operations into a new Dallas Business Center. The move will be complete by January 2025. I’ve decided not to relocate. Because of this, I’m seeking a new, full-time position where I can contribute to a team and make a positive impact.

I’m a positive and results-oriented professional who thrives on helping colleagues succeed. Combining technical expertise with practical problem-solving, I consistently deliver exceptional outcomes. I've received invaluable training in Toyota’s wholesale operations and hands-on marketing and advertising experience at KBA Marketing. Most recently, I played a key role in Subaru’s remarkable growth from 2010 to 2019, driving sales, building trust, and increasing retailer profitability without expanding the dealership network.

Skills: Excellent communicator, analytic and data driven, focused and forward thinking, budgeting and strategy.

If you catch me outside of work, I am an avid traveler and golfer. I recently visited Spain with my wife and daughter and Costa Rica with a great group of friends. I also enjoy playing an occasional round of golf at my local golf club.

It would be my pleasure to speak with you. Feel free to reach out at DrewWatson24@Protonmail.com.
