This is a work‑from‑home / hybrid role with a truly global scope. You’ll partner virtually with teams across markets and travel periodically for key market visits, strategy sessions, and launches.

As Brand Manager, you are the storyteller, architect, and guardian of the Addiction brand. You won’t just manage campaigns—you’ll shape how pet parents around the world discover, choose, and stay loyal to a science‑led, emotionally resonant pet food brand.

If you love blending strategy + creativity + execution, and enjoy working across digital, trade, and e‑commerce, this role puts you right at the center.

What You’ll Do

Lead Brand Strategy & Growth

Own the Addiction brand strategy and 12–24 month roadmap aligned to global growth targets.

Run annual brand planning: positioning, pillars, audience, messaging, and priority markets.

Turn business goals into clear brand initiatives across product, pricing, distribution, and communication.

Monitor trends, competitors, and consumer insights to spot where we can win next.

Drive Integrated Campaigns & Content

Own campaign briefs, creative direction, and go‑to‑market plans with Content, Trade, and E‑commerce teams.

Build a consistent storytelling system: hero campaigns, always‑on content, seasonal moments, and launches.

Use data to test, learn, and optimise—ensuring content and campaigns cut through and deliver results.

Act as marketing lead for the Addiction product portfolio: NPD, renovations, and regional ranges.

Shape product stories—claims, benefits, reasons‑to‑believe, target consumer, and pack messaging.

Partner with R&D, Regulatory, and QA to ensure narratives are credible, compliant, and compelling.

Support pricing, pack architecture, and channel‑specific assortment to keep Addiction premium and competitive.

Orchestrate Cross‑Functional & Market Execution

Be the go‑to brand partner for Sales, Trade Marketing, E‑commerce, Supply Chain, and country teams.

Ensure local execution stays on‑brand while being smartly adapted to each market.

Equip markets with toolkits: brand decks, launch kits, POSM, training materials, playbooks.

Track performance dashboards, turning numbers into clear insights and next steps.

Lead Strategic Projects

Support or lead high‑impact initiatives: crisis comms, rebrands, agency pitches, new market entries.

Represent the Addiction brand in leadership reviews and key external partnerships.

• Internal: CEO, Marketing Director, Trade Marketing, E‑commerce, Sales (Country/Key Accounts), R&D/NPD, Regulatory, QA, Supply Chain, Finance, Customer Service, Design/Creative.
• External: Distributors, key retail partners, e‑commerce platforms, agencies, KOLs/vets/breeders, media partners, event organisers, research vendors.

You may also lead a small team (e.g., Brand Executive, Content & Community, or Trade Marketing support).

What You Bring

Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Business, Communications, or related field.

5–8 years in brand management or category marketing; FMCG, premium food, or pet industry is a plus.

Proven experience running integrated campaigns across digital and trade channels.

Strong foundation in brand strategy, positioning, and market execution.

Experience in multi‑market / distributor‑led models is highly desirable.
