Global by a country mile.
I would say Global outranks Group. At least that's how the English language would work. Global indicates a very broad scope, comprising an entire company's strategy across all its regions. Group would naturally imply a more limited scope, maybe pertaining to a product line or a specific region. Of course, business people do not always respect the logic of language, so in any given company those titles could mean whatever people want them to mean.
For some reason the first sounds more higher level to me. It reads as more prestigious and executive than the latter one (native English speaker btw).
Which is actually more senior? That entirely depends on what you *actually* are/will be doing.
It kinda depends. If you work on a global account then you can sometimes swing that title and essentially be a strategy director. Group essentially means you run a strategy team and are strategy lead.
That said I have seen Director of Global Strategy as essentially being an exec strategy director which is usually the top end.
Then you have head of strategy vs. CSO. Heads of strategy are sometimes just group strategy directors that are elevated to run a department but aren’t part of the executive leadership team (e.g. managing Director, president, etc).
“Director of strategy” is a weirdly large difference from “strategy director”
Global if the global refers to his or her internal oversight vs nature if their clients. If does not refer to their oversight of strategists, then likely group which means the strategist oversees more than one account/client
Probably ‘group,’ since it means you direct a group of accounts vs one, but having global in your title is good experience that is probably connected to a big agency and a big accounts whereas groups could be big remit or small depending on the agency.
