Brand & Marketing Project Manager

We are looking for someone who can take a big creative idea and actually make it happen.

This is not a role for someone who wants to sit around making strategy decks all day.

We’re looking for an incredibly organised, proactive and execution-focused marketer who can work directly with our CEO and take ownership of everything happening across our marketing calendar — from product launches and content creation to influencer campaigns, events and major brand activations.

You’ll be the person sitting in the middle of all the moving pieces, making sure everyone is briefed, deadlines are met and campaigns actually come to life.

 

What you’ll own

• Managing the full Standard Beauty marketing calendar

• Project-managing campaigns from idea to execution

• Coordinating our outsourced content creators, photographers, videographers and designers

• Creating and managing creative briefs, timelines and deliverables

• Coordinating influencer campaigns and PR gifting

• Managing product launch rollouts across social, email, website and retail

• Helping execute large-scale brand activations, events and pop-ups

• Keeping suppliers, freelancers and internal teams on track

• Ensuring content is approved, delivered and published on time

• Weekly campaign and marketing progress reporting

Who we’re looking for

Min 3 years experience in beauty, fashion, lifestyle, retail or FMCG 

• Loves a deadline, exceptionally organised

• Naturally takes ownership

• Can manage multiple projects at once without losing your mind

• Is comfortable chasing people when something is overdue

• Understands social media, creators and modern beauty marketing. Chronically online & in tune with the latest trends in FMGC

• Has strong attention to detail

• Moves quickly and doesn’t need constant hand-holding

• Can take direction but is confident enough to make decisions

• Gets excited by brands, launches, events and creating things people actually talk about

Beauty, fashion, lifestyle, retail or FMCG experience would be a huge advantage.

Most importantly

We already have a strong brand, big ideas and an incredible pipeline of launches and campaigns.

We need someone who can take those ideas and turn them into timelines, briefs, deliverables and results.

You’ll work closely with the CEO on creative direction while becoming the person responsible for making sure the entire marketing machine keeps moving.
