Senior Brand Manager
12-month contract with potential to become permanent
Melbourne, Australia
We're looking for a Senior Brand Manager to join our team at FutureBrand. Someone who is curious, considerate and caring. Ready to seize the future and make an impact from day one. (By the way, that's likely the equivalent of a 'Senior Account Manager' in industry terms.)
As the ideal candidate, you'll be able to lead projects with confidence and ease, anticipate potential hurdles and enable expert solutions. You'll be a strategic thinker with deep knowledge of brand management, an eye for detail, and a confident manner for presenting and sharing your opinions and ideas. You'll work with the leadership team to help our clients build, grow and manage their brands, ensuring brand transformation projects are delivered to a high standard, on budget and on time.
Ultimately, we're looking for someone who can seamlessly step into our positive and productive team culture, bringing the self-motivation and drive to thrive, work, learn and grow together.
This is a contract role based in Melbourne for 12 months, but it could evolve into a permanent role in due course.
