Brand Manager
Posted: March 12, 2020
Bond Pet Foods, one of the hottest startups in biotech and pet care, is looking to round out its core team with a Brand Manager. This is a rare opportunity for the right person to help steer a business that is radically changing the pet food industry by disrupting the outdated, unsustainable model of conventional agriculture.
This person will have a seriously impressive skill set that includes things like - being comfortable with big picture vision-setting while also managing all components of the marketing mix. Being a self-sufficient leader and problem-solver who can think ahead to “see around corners” and resolve issues gracefully. An ambitious marketer who understands how modern brands behave today. Someone who can humbly jump in and help wherever needed, because this is a startup after all. And, more tactically, someone with strong project management, social media and digital chops to shape Bond’s brand voice and presence. Startup and/or pet industry experience a plus.
Functional stuff aside, we’re also looking for this person to add their own unique vibe, personality and dog(!) to our entrepreneurial culture.

Oversee the creation of various brand assets including packaging, website, trade show, collateral and more- from supplier management to design and production

QUALIFICATIONS:
4+ years of experience in brand management, account management (at an advertising agency) or other relevant experience
Passion for animals (pet parents preferred), with a strong desire to make a real impact
Curiosity to learn about the biotech / food tech space with a hunger to get smart about the science behind Bond
Highly organized and self-motivated, with the ability to juggle multiple priorities autonomously under minimal supervision
Entrepreneurial spirit with a willingness to roll up your sleeves to meet tight deadlines and drive results
Excellent interpersonal and presentation skills – a “people person” who can quickly forge relationships with partners, suppliers, vendors and team members
Financial acuity
Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, rapidly changing environment
Able to maintain highly confidential and proprietary information and material
COMPENSATION:
