Ready to brew up something brilliant?
Whittard of Chelsea are looking for a Marketing Manager who can blend strategic thinking with hands-on delivery. Someone who knows the rules well enough to bend them, just like founder Walter Whittard did when he brought exceptional tea, coffee and cocoa to the masses.
What you'll be steeping yourself in...
Global campaign wizardry
Lead integrated campaigns that work as beautifully in Hong Kong and New York as they do in London. You'll be the connective tissue between our global vision and local market magic, working with agencies across APAC and the US to ensure our brand voice stays consistently charismatic while adapting to cultural nuance.
Brand building brilliance
Champion standout ideas that keep us ahead of the curve. Monitor trends, decode competitors, and translate our positioning into compelling activations that make people stop scrolling and start sipping.
Cross-functional collaboration
Partner with content, e-commerce, product and commercial teams to shape campaigns that don't just look good - they deliver results. You'll be briefing agencies, managing budgets, and ensuring everything lands on-brand and on time.
Project ownership
Take the reins on end-to-end campaign delivery. From initial brief to final wrap, you'll own the timeline, the budget, and the brilliant outcomes that follow.
What we're looking for...
Experience that counts
5+ years in marketing, ideally within FMCG, lifestyle or premium consumer brands. You've managed global campaigns with local adaptations, and you're as comfortable briefing creative agencies as you are presenting to senior stakeholders.
The right blend of skills
- Integrated campaign management across B2C and B2B
- International market experience (APAC/US preferred)
- Brand development and top-of-funnel marketing expertise
- Agency management across all channels
- Commercial acumen that ties marketing to revenue
The Refined Maverick mindset
You're commercially astute yet culturally curious. Ambitious enough to set high standards, strategic enough to shape the big picture, but hands-on enough to make it happen. You're motivated by building brands internationally and driven by measurable impact.
Why you'll love it at Whittard...
Join a team rebuilding something special. Next year marks 140 years of bringing exceptional beverages to the world, and now they're writing the next chapter. Think global growth opportunities across APAC and the US, while deepening roots with UK customers who've made Whittard part of their daily rituals.
You'll work in a fast-paced, collaborative environment where confidence, resilience and creative spirit aren't just welcomed, they're essential. This is your chance to shape how a heritage brand with Chelsea charm and West London wit shows up globally.
The Perks...
- Monday to Friday working (35 hours per week with flexible working hours, core hours 10am-4pm)
- 25 days holiday allowance, plus bank holidays, and your birthday off
- Generous product discounts
- Office-based in Abingdon 4 days per week
- Excellent opportunities for progression and development
