Marketing Director – Premium Restaurant Group
London
Up to £130,000 + bonus

This one’s a biggie.A senior marketing lead for a seriously cool food-led group that’s making waves in London – with more on the way in 2025/26.

The Business:
Genuinely exciting.Proper foodie roots, founder led, serious backing, and no interest in playing it safe.The product speaks for itself – now they need someone who can shout about it (the right way).

The Person:

• You must come from a luxury or premium hospitality background – restaurants.You know the landscape and speak the language.
• This is about building, not babysitting – it’s a leadership role for a start, so you’ll need to be hands-on and commercially sharp.
• Thinker and doer – you love a bit of strategy but aren’t afraid to roll your sleeves up.
• You know how to shape a brand and lead with insight – not just instinct.
• You’ll be working side-by-side with the founder, so personality matters.Be bold, creative, collaborative, and above all – passionate about the industry.
• Happy being on-site 5 days a week – either at HQ or in the restaurants.This isn’t a remote gig.

The Role:

• Own the marketing strategy and budget across brand, digital, PR, social, partnerships, campaigns, and all comms
• Define what the brand stands for and make it consistent across every touchpoint
• Use data and customer insight to drive decisions – not guesswork
• Build and lead a best-in-class team as the group grows
• Manage agency relationships where needed – but you’ll be the one steering the ship

Key Bits:

• Brand development
• Insight-led strategy
• Social, digital & PR ownership
• Menus, POS, in-restaurant marketing
• Creative vision and delivery
• Building a marketing function from scratch
