An accomplished and recognized marketing professional, Ms. Taylor has more than three decades of experience helping the world’s biggest companies build their brands and tell their stories on a global stage. During 23 years at Accenture — including more than ten years as chief marketing and communications officer — her vision and leadership helped shape the company’s business and brand strategy, and her accomplishments include the company’s growth into one of the world’s leading brands, powered by innovation and operating at the center of the digital economy.

Ms. Taylor also serves on the boards of the Association of Executive Search and Leadership Consultants, Reporters Without Borders, and the US chapter of Reporters Sans Frontières, one of the world’s largest press freedom nongovernmental organizations.

Ms. Taylor has been named one of Forbes’s “World’s Most Influential CMOs,” included in FierceCMO’s “B2B CMOs to Watch,” and selected for a Changing the Game Award by the Advertising Women of New York (now called She Runs It). She is a member of the Arthur W. Page Society, the Committee of 200, and the Women’s Forum. Ms. Taylor is a graduate of the University of Maryland in College Park.

“Roxanne brings deep and invaluable expertise to this important role, and her impressive track record ensures that she will successfully position MSK in an ever-changing healthcare landscape,” said Craig B. Thompson, MD, president and CEO of MSK. “I am delighted to welcome Roxanne to MSK. I know that her leadership, combined with her deep passion for making a difference, will enable us to effectively deliver MSK’s mission and message to all our stakeholders, especially patients and their families who entrust us with their care.”

Working closely with MSK leadership, Ms. Taylor will bring a fresh perspective to communicating the critical components of MSK’s global mission to discover new strategies to prevent, control, and ultimately cure all cancers. Using her experience building highly successful teams and stakeholder engagement platforms, she will develop and execute a sophisticated marketing and communications strategy for MSK, with accountability for building the long-term equity of the MSK brand, the patient and employee experience, and the institution’s reputation. She will lead an integrated marketing and communications function that will help grow and differentiate MSK’s brand presence worldwide.
