Marketing Manager – Brand champion wanted ‘new food’ revolution

Location: West London HQ 2 days, hybrid working
To £85,000 + bonus + exec benefits

Rarely does a search for a senior consumer marketeer start with the uncompromising mission to find a Visionary in food brands, a true Strategist in marketing. This recruitment is all about applying the fundamentals of classically FMCG marketing knowledge, coupled with an obsession for culinary food as two critically important attributes in the ideal candidate - no others need apply.

Right now, with a new category-busting brand about to launch in the UK retail customer universe, complementing the existing portfolio of household brands, this £100m organisation is highly motivated to attract more credible marketing talent to launch a brand-new food profile to the UK consumer. With a launch budget of £3m, marketing resource is being added to the team to own the entire launch objectives and execution. That will be you!

We are looking for an experienced Marketing Manager today, steeped in food brand experience today, where their job emphasises what it takes to launch a brand and implant a long-range plan to achieve sustainable sales growth. Above all, you will have a deep-rooted skill in winning hearts and minds of stakeholders on the Board, getting everyone to say yes! We are looking for a pioneering attitude, a strong voice, and skills in strategic brand initiatives to ensure confidence and unquestionable credibility.

You are ready to own this expansive role, leading the entire new brand launch plan and team. You’ll be the ‘right-hand person’ to the Marketing Director. One thing is for sure, you’ll be known for your determination to achieve results, really care about your work, and stand out from the crowd as an example of serious talent and future potential.

We need ‘The Revolutionary’ marketing professional who is tried and tested with an impressive track record, yet has much more potential to realise. With an impressive career already in blue chip FMCG environments, you’ll be ready to join a business packed with enterprise and a secure future ahead. This is undoubtedly an exciting new category in ambient food innovation not really yet seen in the UK, which needs an equally enthusiastic marketing pioneer to make a marked impact.
