Senior Brand Manager - Brand Hackers

Up World
London

Senior Brand Manager £48-60k

We help challenger brands fight smarter, think sharper, and win bigger.

We build experienced, dynamic and fractional teams that fit in like puzzle pieces – providing just the right knowledge and energy at the right time. We’re not your typical agency or a one-man show; we're a team of passionate professionals who eat, sleep, and breathe branding and marketing.

Our diverse team of experts covers all marketing mix elements, from brand strategy and social media to performance and web development and beyond and with over 100 brands under our belt, our Brand Hackers have a treasure trove of shared experiences. This wealth of knowledge fuels our creativity and gives us the edge.

We’re 4 years old and have grown from just 2 of us to 20+ people with knock-out case studies we’re really proud of and a serious growing reputation (even if we say so ourselves).

Beyond FMCG, we're building iconic challenger brands across Beauty, Luxury, Film, and more working with big challengers like Tony’s Chocolonely and emerging hot start-ups like Seep. From customer insights and brand strategy to campaign planning and comms strategy, our team tackles a wide range of briefs.

We’re now looking for a Senior Brand Manager to join the team. This is a senior-level delivery and leadership role for someone who thrives on turning strategy into results, managing multiple clients, mentoring individuals, and leading best-in-class marketing execution.

You will...

  • Lead the development and delivery of multi-channel marketing strategies across social, content, email, partnerships, PR and paid for some of our biggest clients.

  • Own day-to-day relationships with brand stakeholders building trust, identifying upsell opportunities, and driving growth.

  • Guide the creation of high-quality content and messaging across key channels.

  • Collaborate with founders and leadership teams to shape strategy and marketing direction.

  • Lead multidisciplinary internal squad teams and managing and mentoring individual and squad teams to deliver exceptional output.

  • Deliver work on time and on budget, while upholding exceptional standards.

  • Use data to inform and refine strategies, sharing insight with clients and internal teams.

  • Manage external partners including creative agencies, paid media teams and PR specialists.

  • Identify and drive new growth initiatives across FMCG and DTC brands.

  • Balance hands-on execution with strategic oversight, maintaining a bird’s eye view of progress across brands.

You’ll have...

  • 7+ years of experience in B2C marketing roles, ideally within FMCG or DTC challenger brands.

  • Proven experience leading cross-channel campaigns from idea through to impact.

  • Strong client relationship management skills, ideally working with founders or start-up leadership.

  • Confident working across multiple brands at once, leading internal teams and managing complexity and competing priorities.

  • A strategic and commercial mindset able to see the big picture and act fast on detail.

  • Experience briefing and managing creative, paid, or PR agencies.

  • Exceptional copywriting and storytelling ability.

  • Strong leadership and mentorship experience.

  • Experience in start-up or agency environments, with a hands-on and proactive attitude.

What We Offer

  • An opportunity to work with some of the coolest challenger brands in the market, and help shape one of the fastest-growing agencies.

  • This a roaming role meaning you will work remotely most of the time with the expectation that you will be in London twice a month.

  • Competitive salary package, with holiday and benefits that include a working-from-home allowance, personal development support, enhanced parental leave, and unlimited coaching sessions.

  • An opportunity to grow your expertise working with some of the brightest talent in the brand growth and marketing space and driven by shared purpose and success.
