Assistant Brand Manager - FMCG

A rounded Assistant Brand Manager opportunity for an ambitious FMCG marketer looking to build broader brand experience and take on more ownership.

This is an Assistant Brand Manager role with genuine breadth, ownership and development potential.

You'll be joining a well-established FMCG business with a strong branded portfolio, working closely with Senior Brand Managers to help turn brand strategy into activity that drives consumer engagement and commercial growth.

It's a great move for someone who has already built some marketing or brand experience and now wants to become a more rounded brand marketer. You'll get exposure across the full marketing mix, including brand planning, campaigns, insight, agency management, NPD, shopper activation and performance analysis.

This isn't just about coordinating activity. You'll be trusted to own defined projects and work streams, manage timelines, bring recommendations to the table, and build stronger foundations for a longer-term career in brand management.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for someone with previous marketing or brand experience, ideally gained in FMCG, consumer goods, branded products or another fast-paced consumer-facing environment.

You'll probably suit this role if you:

Have experience supporting brand plans, campaigns, activations or product launches
Understand how to work with agencies and cross-functional teams
Are comfortable using data to draw conclusions and make recommendations
Have strong project management skills and can keep multiple priorities moving
Are commercially curious and interested in how brands grow
Want to develop your career in Brand Management Experience in an FMCG or consumer goods environment would be particularly useful, especially where you've worked closely with commercial, category, product or cross-functional teams.

Why Join?

This is a strong opportunity for someone who wants more than a narrow marketing execution role.

You'll get close to the full brand management process, work with experienced Senior Brand Managers, and build genuine FMCG experience across consumer, customer, product and commercial activity.

The business can offer a competitive salary, hybrid working, 25 days' holiday plus bank holidays, pension, death in service, wellbeing support, mobile, free parking and practical on-site benefits.

Most importantly, you'll be joining at a level where you can learn, contribute and progressively take on more ownership.
