  • Manage relationships with external agencies to ensure high-quality work and alignment with brand objectives

  • Partner with Brand Strategy & Brand Creative to develop and maintain comprehensive brand guidelines, toolkits, and resources to ensure consistent brand application across all internal and external stakeholders

  • Partner with Brand Strategy & Brand Creative to support the evolution of the brand, defining the roadmap for development and delivery including training, communications, and assets

  • Partner with Ops to consolidate various brand review processes to create a single, streamlined resource for brand support and consultation

  • Partner with Legal to ensure brand compliance and protection

  • Establish key performance indicators (KPIs) and provide regular reports and recommendations for optimization


What experience you have

  • Experience managing and implementing company rebranding efforts, with a solid understanding of the complexities and change management involved

  • Experience in developing and implementing brand enablement, comms, documentation and governance programs

  • Skilled at change management and aligning to shifting business priorities

  • Experience and success supporting brand-related M&A activities

  • Proven ability to explain the importance of brand consistency and enforce brand standards

  • Excellent communication, presentation, and interpersonal skills with the ability to influence, provide constructive feedback, and collaborate effectively across all levels, geographies, and functions of the organization
