We are looking for a Brand Manager to join the Group's central marketing team for a fixed-term basis to cover maternity leave. The role will be based out of KD's Bristol office, working alongside the Global Marketing Director (also Bristol-based) and a Marketing Manager based in Poland.
The role will be focused on supporting the overall Group business as we evolve our positioning and identity for our SteriPack, KD and HSD brands, driving brand awareness and engagement among our key target audiences, and engaging internal stakeholders. The Brand Manager will take responsibility for implementing and championing a new, cohesive brand identity across all marketing channels, establishing trust and credibility with clients and driving demand for our design and manufacturing services in the healthcare sector.

Why work with us?
This is an exciting time to be joining the SteriPack Group business in a marketing function. We are honing our brand positioning and identity as we gear up for future growth, and this role offers plenty of opportunity for anyone looking to build on their current brand manager experience with a fresh set of challenges to get stuck into.
Our full-time contract is 38 hours per week. We offer flexible hybrid working policies in terms of both location and working hours. We operate availability hours so people can start at 9:30am if needed, lunch can be taken between 12:00pm to 2:00pm (in case you want to pop to the gym or attend an appointment), and we offer an early finish on Fridays if you have banked your contracted hours for the week.
About us
The KD team within SteriPack are based in an iconic building in the vibrant city of Bristol. The characterful Grade 2 listed stone building was originally built as a sugar refinery around 1850. It's now completely refitted, and houses all of our staff plus our workshops, labs, the design studio, a Human Factors usability suite, as well as client meeting spaces. We are in a great central location: the local area is full of independent shops and eateries, and it is only a short walk up to Park Street, or over to the Harbourside and St Nick's Markets, both of which have regular street food markets.
Our values underpin everything we do.
* See possibility: we explore the potential in everyone & everything and embrace change to create opportunities.
* Make a difference: we want to part of the solution and have courage to act, even when it isn't easy.
* Stand together: we collaborate seamlessly, value difference and support each other.
