Past Employee’s Testimonial
I came into this role afraid that I would be bored. My past work experience had a strong consumer focus: big brands with youthful, fun campaigns. These expectations were quickly broken down, as I realised that my position was challenging, creative, analytical and very enjoyable. Essentially, you will become the company’s expert in all things marketing-related. Your broad task is to grow and develop the brand, both creatively, and in terms of performance. You will be supported by a small, friendly and charismatic team. You will learn quickly and gain exposure to cutting edge trends in marketing.
