This is my first time i came across the title "Deputy to the CEO". It could be equivalent to a senior partner in a big law firm like Allen & Gledhill or just a good sounding title he gave himself being a senior exec assistant to the CEO.

“Deputy to the CEO” and “Deputy CEO” usually imply different levels of authority.
Title
Typical meaning
Deputy CEO
A formal senior executive who acts as the CEO’s second-in-command and may assume the CEO’s authority when the CEO is absent. Usually has broad organizational responsibility.
Deputy to the CEO
A senior aide, adviser, or executive supporting the CEO directly. The role may coordinate strategic initiatives, manage priorities, or represent the CEO, but does not automatically carry CEO-level authority.
The wording matters:
Deputy CEO = deputy of the position; stronger and more institutional.
Deputy to the CEO = deputy or support to the person; often more flexible and CEO-office-focused.
For example, a Deputy CEO may oversee several divisions and approve major decisions. A Deputy to the CEO may lead special projects, coordinate executive priorities, and act on the CEO’s behalf only when specifically delegated. In many organizations, Deputy CEO is the more senior and authoritative title, though actual responsibilities depend on the company’s governance and job description.
