Job summary
We are looking for a commercially minded brand marketing manager to own the brand in the market. This is a trade marketing and BTL-focused role – you will be the bridge between the brand and the shelves, the salons and the distributors that sell it. You will work closely with our Head of Sales to ensure the brand is well-positioned, well-presented and well-supported at every point of sale. You will also manage our digital presence and DTC channel. This is a hands-on, execution-focused role. We need someone equally comfortable developing a trade marketing plan and physically executing an in-store activation.
