Senior Brand Manager
Are you an experienced FMCG Brand Manager ready to take genuine end-to-end ownership of a brand?
We're recruiting for an exciting Senior Brand Manager opportunity within a fast-paced consumer goods business, offering the chance to shape brand strategy while remaining close to the commercial performance and day-to-day delivery.
This is a broad, commercially focused role where you'll effectively own your brand as a business – developing the strategy, identifying opportunities for growth, managing investment and working cross-functionally to turn plans into results.
The Role
Reporting to the Head of Marketing, you'll take responsibility for developing and delivering the 12–24 month brand plan, balancing long-term brand growth with shorter-term commercial priorities.
You'll work closely with Sales, Category, Finance, NPD, Technical, Supply Chain and Operations, alongside a range of external agency partners.
Your responsibilities will include but not limited to
Developing and delivering the annual and longer-term brand strategy and plan
Owning brand performance against revenue, profit and budget objectives
Monitoring brand health and identifying commercial risks and growth opportunities
Using consumer, shopper, category, customer and sales insight to drive decision-making
Shaping the innovation, renovation and portfolio pipeline
Leading NPD and brand projects from initial brief through to launch and evaluation
Acting as guardian of brand positioning, proposition, identity and tone of voice
Developing integrated campaigns across paid, owned, earned, shopper and customer channels
Working closely with Sales and Category to identify distribution, range, pricing, promotional and activation opportunities
Creating compelling brand and customer presentations
Managing creative, design, media, digital, PR, research and shopper agency relationships
Taking accountability for brand and A&P budgets, ensuring investment delivers maximum impact
Leading cross-functional projects and keeping stakeholders aligned
Supporting and coaching more junior members of the wider marketing team
About You
We're looking for an established FMCG marketer who combines strong brand thinking with genuine commercial awareness.
Ideally, you'll bring:
Around 5+ years' experience within FMCG brand or commercial marketing
Food, drink or another fast-moving consumer category background
Experience developing and delivering annual brand plans
Strong commercial understanding, including P&L, budgets and forecasting
Experience interpreting consumer, shopper, category and sales data
A track record within innovation, renovation, packaging or proposition development
Experience managing external creative and marketing agencies
Confidence working alongside Sales and Category teams
Strong stakeholder management and presentation skills
The ability to move comfortably between strategy and hands-on delivery
You'll thrive in an environment where things move quickly and where good judgement, commercial curiosity and the ability to make decisions are valued.
This would suit somebody who wants real ownership and visibility rather than being one small part of a very large marketing structure.
If you're an experienced FMCG Brand Manager looking for the opportunity to have genuine influence over brand direction and commercial growth, we'd love to hear from you.
