The business has grown somewhat organically online where thanks to hundred of very positive reviews across Google.co.uk Amazon (Europe & US) and Facebook it has developed an excellent reputation in the industry. However, all our marketing efforts have always been exclusively online (mainly SEO & PPC with a little bit of social) and done in a piecemeal manner. We're looking for someone to help us develop our brand and a formal marketing strategy as we move into a new era that will see us move production of our products back to the UK.

Key Responsibilities include (but are not limited to):

  • Establishing the brand identity and voice for the business

This is a role that will suit someone who wants to work with a small, but growing, British brand in a niche luxury goods sector.
