Appointment
Brandlight appoints Gal Ohana as Chief of Staff
The company, which recently raised a $30 million Series A, is expanding its leadership team as AI becomes a major marketing and commerce channel.
AI brand marketing platform Brandlight has appointed Gal Ohana as Chief of Staff to co-founder and CEO Imri Marcus.
Brandlight, which operates in the enterprise AI visibility market, helps brands understand, manage, and improve how they are found, represented, and recommended across platforms including ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews.
Brandlight’s platform is used by leading global brands, including major enterprises such as Kimberly-Clark, P&G, and Samsung.
Ohana’s appointment follows Brandlight’s $30 million Series A, announced in February and led by Pelion Venture Partners, with participation from Cardumen Capital and G20 Ventures. The round brought the company’s total funding to $36 million.
In his new role, Ohana will work directly with Marcus and Brandlight’s leadership team on strategic priorities, executive operations, and company-wide execution. His mandate will span cross-functional initiatives across product, customer success, go-to-market, and organizational growth as the company scales its operations across the globe.
Ohana brings nine years of experience at the intersection of business operations, strategy, and financial management. He joins Brandlight from Remitly and previously Accenture, following earlier roles in corporate banking.
He holds a bachelor’s degree in Economics and Business Administration from Reichman University and a master’s degree in Law from Bar-Ilan University.
Brandlight was founded in late 2024 by CEO Imri Marcus and CBO Uri Gafni.
