FRENCH SPEAKING - BRAND MANAGER

A brief Introduction.....
Vibright are excited to be partnering with one of our favourite clients.... But this time its not a HR role! They have enjoyed our approach and have asked us to support them with a role that falls outside of our usual remit. This is not something we would usually do but as its them, we couldn't say no! Our client is a London based, beverage manufacturer with lots of exciting plans! They are looking for a French speaking Brand Manager to join their existing team.

Want to hear more?

This is an opportuntiy to play a pivitol role in shaping the future of theur brands! The purpose of this role is to work with expert buyers to manage the relationship between our client and the producers they represent, monitor performance and stock of the producers' product to understand where opportunities exist or problems may occur, and work closely with the sales team to successfully communicate and sell these products to customers.

This role has come to market for two reasons......the current star in this role is heading off on maternity leave, however due to growth they know they need more people to support the French region, so this is a permanent opportunity to join an amazing team.

What will you be doing?

There are three core pillars to this role.

Pillar 1: Key Stakeholder Management - You will work closely with the relevant buyer to build strong relationships between our client and each producer that they work with, in the French region. Ensure a detailed understanding of the producers' portfolio, and the priorities within it. For relevant producers, ensure Brand Plans are agreed, actioned, and reviewed throughout the year

Pillar 2: Commercial analysis - Analyse stock and performance data to identify potential opportunities and issues, and put plans in place to address them. Work closely with the sales team to help them sell effectively across the portfolio, in line with overall business priorities. Working with and negotiating with producers to ensure they offer support to the most relevant and commercially viable opportunities.

Pillar 3: Marketing - Pro-actively organise producer-relevant activity in the UK market - ensuring appropriate activity is carried out. Work closely with the marketing and events team to ensure time spent in the UK/Ireland is well-organised and with the sales team to ensure time is well spent. Work closely with the copyright and communications team to ensure that relevant awards/scores are quickly and effectively communicated to sales and customers, and for other marketing content (blog, social media etc)

  • Excellent organisation, prioritisation and attention to detail. Comfortable managing a fast-paced workload.

What's on offer for the successful candidate?

Our client is open to different backgrounds and levels of experience, hence the salary range. For them this will come down to the person and how you will add value to their already amazingly talented team:
