Microsoft AI's CMO is leaving as the company rethinks consumer marketing efforts
Andréa Mallard is leaving Microsoft's AI unit after around six months in the role, Business Insider has learned.
Andréa Mallard, Microsoft AI's chief marketing officer, is leaving the company as it restructures its consumer marketing efforts. Mallard joined Microsoft AI in January from Pinterest, where she held a similar position for over seven years. Her departure reflects Microsoft's strategy shift to merge its consumer and business Copilot apps into a single application.
Microsoft announced Mallard's intention to leave about six months after her appointment, citing the need to relocate her family to Europe. She will remain in her role as an advisor until early next year. Mallard's departure also signals a broader change at Microsoft AI, as the company reevaluates its consumer marketing strategies.
