Senior Brand Manager
Competitive salary, bonus, 27 days holidays + Bank Hols & benefits
The Company
A fantastic and rare opportunity to join a challenger UK confectionery company that just so happens to own Terry's Chocolate Orange, a UK household favourite and a £100m brand with an international presence. Terry’s Chocolate is owned by our client Carambar, a European confectionery company with PE backing to realise the potential of a number of iconic brands.
With a clear vision and strategy for growth, the business is continuing to expand its UK operations over the next few years. They are investing heavily in the market, including significant expenditure in brand marketing and importantly, people.
Whilst Terry’s is a big iconic British brand, the team behind the scenes acts and thinks like a start-up and is currently made up of 9 people in the UK (Sales & Marketing) and 5 people in France.
But Terry’s is more than a mere company: Making everyone smile is their main mission.
The Role
Our client is seeking a Senior Brand Manager to join the team, working on strategy, innovation and activation for Terry’s UK. In this role you will collaborate with your marketing team, the sales team and the support teams to develop and market Terry’s UK NPDs for 2025 and beyond.
The role offers plenty of scope for creativity and independent leadership as well as clearly ownable deliverables on large projects. You will lead the stretch of the brand into broader product categories.
This role offers agile working, 2 – 3 days a week in the London office, with the rest working from home.
You will also travel to the Carambar H.O in Paris regularly.
About You
We are looking for candidates with circa 5 to 8 years FMCG experience, working in Marketing, at a Senior Brand Manager level.
Confectionery / impulse category experience would be an added advantage as would experience gained in an entrepreneurial SME.
You are passionate about brands and consumer marketing. Commercially astute, you have a proactive and entrepreneurial attitude and an engaging and collaborative style. With a meticulous eye for detail, you are motivated, strategic, driven and a strong team player. Nielsen/Kantar skills are essential.
Come and talk to us if…
- You’re ready to use your marketing experience in an entrepreneurial environment.
- You’re looking for a different challenge from the ‘multi-national’ norm and crave a much wider remit with greater influence. You’re ready to join a small, agile team shaping the destiny of the iconic Terry’s chocolate brand.
