Someone who can shape brand identity, develop breakthrough marketing campaigns, and drive adoption and brand love with early adopters/leading edge consumers. If you are energized by the opportunity to craft a brand’s trajectory, engage culture-setting consumers, and pioneer a movement, we’d love to meet you.

  • Partner with Marketing, Sales, Creative, Finance, and Operations teams to develop customer programs, brand communication plans, and sales tools that drive sales and strengthen market positioning
  • Track business and campaign performance metrics, report results and key learnings to senior leadership, and develop recommendations for optimization
  • Identify opportunities for process improvement and upskilling, communicate best practices and implement improvement where needed

  • Own brand positioning and messaging frameworks, ensuring clear differentiation and compelling storytelling.
  • Partner with the Creative team to develop breakthrough campaigns and ensure cohesive execution across all touch-points.
  • Manage external creative and media agency partners to keep execution consistent, on-brand, and on schedule.
  • Lead go-to-market and innovation launch plans that generate news and excitement for new products.
  • Own the end-to-end commercialization process for new products, including product placement and distribution strategy, partnering with Product Development, Supply Chain, and Operations to bring launches to market on time and on budget.
  • Leverage syndicated data, market research, and consumer insights to inform strategy and identify growth opportunities.
  • Strategic thinker who can connect brand initiatives directly to business results, not just brand-building activity for its own sake.
  • Consumer-first mindset, grounded in market research and insights, with genuine curiosity about what drives consumer behavior.
  • Data-driven decision maker, comfortable interpreting large, complex data sets to extract actionable, fact-based insights.
  • Strong analytics skills paired with sound business judgment.
  • Strong cross-functional leadership and influence, able to align stakeholders and drive decisions without relying on direct authority.
  • Comfortable working in ambiguity and adapting quickly as priorities shift.
  • Acts as a process driver who influences decisions, presenting clear options and guiding stakeholders toward a resolution, rather than owning the final business decision.
  • Assertive and proactive, while remaining collaborative.
  • Flexible and resilient, able to pivot quickly when plans or priorities change without losing momentum or getting frustrated.
  • Effective communicator with strong interpersonal and presentation skills, comfortable engaging at the executive level.
  • Thrives in a fast-moving, entrepreneurial environment where priorities can shift.
  • Understanding of the shopper marketing and omnichannel retail landscape, including how digital and in-store touchpoints influence purchase decisions.
  • Strong project management skills and a track record of meeting deadlines.
