Why Join Autac?
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone looking to develop their career in brand management and marketing within a well-established manufacturing business.

You will also have the opportunity to learn directly from senior management, with ongoing mentoring from an external marketing consultant. If you are creative, enthusiastic and keen to make your mark on a growing brand, this could be a great opportunity for you. We would love to hear from you.
