from vcard:

3.5.1 TITLE Type Definition

Type name: TITLE

   Type purpose: To specify the job title, functional position or
   function of the object the vCard represents.


   Type example:

        TITLE:Director\, Research and Development

3.5.2 ROLE Type Definition

   Type name: ROLE

   Type purpose: To specify information concerning the role, occupation,
   or business category of the object the vCard represents.

   Type special notes: This type is based on the X.520 Business Category
   explanatory attribute. This property is included as an organizational
   type to avoid confusion with the semantics of the TITLE type and
   incorrect usage of that type when the semantics of this type is
   intended.

   Type example:

        ROLE:Programmer

So Head of Marketing is a Title, Marketing is a Role, I'd say.
