The RoleReporting into the Global Head of Marketing, this role will own brand and consumer marketing for the Australian business. You'll take the lead on brand strategy and development, consumer activation, content and channel management, campaign planning and brand governance, while working closely with commercial teams, external creative partners and international brand stakeholders.

You're not looking for a role where you simply brief agencies and wait for the output. You enjoy building, creating, influencing and making things happen.</li><li>You'll ideally bring:</li><li>5+ years' marketing experience, with a strong track record across brand and campaign ownership.</li><li>Experience developing brand positioning, strategy and campaign frameworks rather than simply executing established briefs.</li><li>Strong understanding of consumer marketing, content and social channels, including hands-on ownership of an always-on presence.</li><li>Experience working closely with commercial or sales teams in an FMCG or broader consumer environment.</li><li>A demonstrated ability to operate in a hands-on role, with a strong implementation focus.</li><li>Comfort working with ambiguity and building processes, frameworks and capability where they don't yet exist.</li><li>Strong stakeholder management skills and the ability to work effectively with agencies, commercial teams and external brand partners.</li><li>A balance of strategic thinking and practical execution - you're someone who can develop the plan and then get stuck into delivering it.</li></ul> Experience within FMCG would be highly regarded, as would experience working with principal, licensed or international brands. Experience building a new marketing function or establishing marketing capability from the ground up would also be advantageous.
