If you’re interested, here’s the impact you will be making in year one. For a commercial animal this is the stuff of dreams - getting stuck in to the strategic planning and making a difference. Responsible for developing the marketing plan that fits with the overall objectives for the channel. Execute this plan with support from their marketing department, their own design team, as well as external agencies.
